On the eve of World Soil Day, it is fitting to highlight again this complex, fragile, and still too often overlooked ecosystem. As the foundation of life, guaranteeing the development of flora and fauna, and indeed our humanity, soils are crucial. According to the latest reports from the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), healthy soil stores twice as much carbon as the atmosphere, hosts 50% of terrestrial biodiversity, can better filter water, and retain up to 20 times more. However, today, over 40% of the world's soils are degraded by erosion, artificialization, pollution, or overexploitation. This situation is not merely an environmental threat—it represents a systemic risk to our food security, climate resilience, and our entire economy.

An International Forum for a Collective Action to preserve and regenerate soils

Founded by Moët Hennessy in 2022, the World Living Soils Forum has established itself as the international meeting point for stakeholders committed to soil health. It brings together scientists, farmers, institutions, NGOs, start-ups, investors, and companies to share knowledge, innovations, and feedback to advance agricultural and viticultural transition.

Moët Hennessy continues its commitments and announces the third edition of the World Living Soils Forum, which will be held on June 3 and 4, 2026, at LUMA Arles and will again be co-organized with ChangeNOW.

To amplify this movement and move beyond competitive and sector-specific challenges, Moët Hennessy has sought to evolve the governance of the World Living Soils Forum by involving, in its design and organization, companies that, like itself, are committed to soil regeneration. These companies will contribute by pooling their feedback and expert networks, and by promoting new operational solutions at both local and international levels. They will join the Advisory Board, composed of sixteen external experts who oversee and arbitrate the editorial direction and the entirety of the programming.
