How can decisions about soil, land restoration, biodiversity, and stewardship become more democratic, especially when different communities, livelihoods, rights, and ecological priorities are in tension?
Positioning statements
- +
Soil should be treated as a commons, not only as private property.
- +
Environmental restoration should not happen without the meaningful participation and consent of the communities who live from the land.
- +
Scientific expertise is essential for soil governance, but it should not override local knowledge, customary practices, or lived experience.
- +
Green transitions can reproduce dispossession if land becomes valuable for conservation, carbon offsetting, biodiversity, energy, or investment without strong community rights.
