“Soil is the natural asset that we step on every day, providing our basic needs such as shelter, food, clean water, and every object that exists in our lives needs in some way. Soil is an interdisciplinary concept that can be associated with the fields of science, geography, art, mathematics, life skills, engineering, and literature”. Güngör Cabbar, Burcu. (2021). Bildiğin Toprak! Öğrenme Akışı Ders Tasarımı ile Toprağa Farklı Disiplinlerden Bakış. 1. 47-65.
When it comes to soil awareness education and raising soil-literate individuals, one of the first names that come to mind in our country will undoubtedly be Dr Burcu Güngör Cabbar. She shared her knowledge and experiences about soil health awareness education in Türkiye with the LOESS Türkiye project team, giving examples from formal education, civil society (especially TEMA training programs), and university courses. She also shared her views on how the desired soil health awareness education needs to be.
