On June 3rd, 2025, ENABLS and ECHO projects co-hosted an Open Soil Workshop at KomBioTa, University of Hohenheim. ENABLS as a project under KomBioTa hosts various such events as part of it’s Learn-in-Nature Lab’s NBS101 series. The Open Soil Workshop engaged a diverse group including students, families, and seniors in exploring soil as a living, vital ecosystem. Through interactive activities such as Soil Bingo, DIY soil texture testing, and microscopic observation of soil fauna, participants gained hands-on insights into soil health, biodiversity, and sustainability. The workshop also introduced citizen science methods to foster public involvement in soil monitoring and care. This collaboration between two EU-supported initiatives demonstrated the power of sensory, experience-based learning to promote awareness of nature-based solutions and the importance of healthy soils in everyday life.
