World Soil Day connects people to soil and raises awareness of its critical importance in our lives. This event first ran in 2013.
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Conference, in June 2013, unanimously endorsed World Soil Day and requested official adoption at the 68th UN General Assembly. In December 2013, the 68th UN General Assembly declared 5th of December as the World Soil Day.
The day is came about through the efforts of many people including the International Union of Soil Sciences (IUSS) and the Kingdom of Thailand through the Global Soil Partnership. In 2002, the IUSS made a resolution proposing December 5th as World Soil Day to celebrate the importance of soil as a critical component of the natural system and as a vital contributor to human wellbeing.
A/RES/68/232 on World Soil Day and International Year of Soils formerly created this event.
