At the Living Soil Forum in Järna SIANI got the exciting opportunity to talk with Dr. Vandana Shiva about various issues connected to soil and soil management. Among many topics she explained to us what key factors contribute in connecting people to act together in solving problems such as an increase in collective awareness, major shifts in people’s minds and a sense of urgency in the society as a whole. She also talked about the negative consequences of globalisation and how soil must be further prioritized on the global agenda.
