Every item we recycle makes a difference.

During our EcoSchools workshop in Nicosia, Cyprus, students explored the vital role of soil in the environment and agriculture through practical, hands-on activities.

They investigated pollution, soil composition and soil health, observed processes such as erosion and moisture retention, and became familiar with environmental monitoring tools. The workshop also encouraged discussion on sustainability, biodiversity and modern agricultural practices, helping students understand how healthy soils contribute to resilient ecosystems and sustainable food production.
