The SOILL project collaborates with the EU-funded ECHO project, which focuses on empowering citizens to monitor, protect, and improve soil health through knowledge, data collection, and participation. A central element of this synergy is ECHO's contribution to the SOILL-Startup Thematic Engagement Event within "Mission Soil Living Labs and Soil Literacy: Empowering Communities for Healthy Soils", held in Turin, Italy, on 11 June 2025.
