Café Talk | Community of Knowledge

On June 6th, 2025, the MONALISA project launches its first Café Talk, an initiative of the Community of Knowledge – a dynamic platform bringing together researchers, technical experts, policymakers, and civil society. These informal but insightful online conversations are designed to co-create solutions, scale successful actions, and even reflect openly on the lessons learned from past failures.
This opening event will be about presenting issues related to Sustainable soil management practices and scientific gaps: Microbial based solutions and starting a discussion among participants on how the MONALISA Project can facilitate the development of these practices.
The special guests Professor Quirico Migheli (Sassari University – IT, Desertification Research Centre, IT) and Thierry Heulin (Directeur de Recherche CNRS/CEA, FR), will present their point of view about this relevant issue.
The Café will be opened by Francesca Assennato and moderated by Anna Luise (Associated Senior Researcher, ISPRA – IT).
