Are you an applicant for the 2026 Mission Soil Living Lab topics? We want to hear from you!
One of the SOILL's major goals is to support the entities working to establish Mission Soil Living Labs and Lighthouses under the EU Mission "A Soil Deal for Europe". To ensure we are providing the best possible resources, we are gathering insights directly from the applying consortia's coordinators and participants who navigated the most recent application cycles.
By sharing your experience, you will help us identify what worked, what didn't, and how we can better assist the next generation of Mission Soil Living Lab topic applicants.
We are currently seeking feedback specifically from those involved in the following three topics:
- Living labs to enhance soil health in managed forests and in natural/semi-natural lands (HORIZON-MISS-2026-05-SOIL-02-two-stage);
- Living labs to enhance soil health in Alpine and Atlantic biogeographical regions (HORIZON-MISS-2026-05-SOIL-01-two-stage);
- Living labs to enhance soil health in Continental, Boreal and Alpine Regions (HORIZON-MISS-2025-05-SOIL-01-two-stage) – SECOND STAGE.
This anonymous survey takes approximately 8 minutes to complete. We are looking for your perspective on:
- The application process;
- Specific challenges in building an application;
- SOILL support resources and services.
All data is treated anonymously. With your consent, findings will be shared with the SOILL partners, and the European Commission to directly improve future support for the Soil Mission.
Your feedback as an applicant is essential to helping us improve our support services for the Mission Soil.
