In the UN Year of Soil, the Manifesto is a celebration of the Soil, our Land, our Territories. It is an invitation to remember that we are the Soil, that humus shapes humanity, and the destruction of the living soil closes our future. The Manifesto shows how critical issues and crises are interconnected and cannot be addressed in silos: soils, land and land grab, farming, climate change, unemployment, growing economic inequality, and growing violence and wars. Based on a transition from the current linear, extractive way of thinking to a circular approach based on reciprocal giving and taking, the Manifesto o!ers a new paradigm for a New Agriculture, a new Circular Economy which can sow the seeds of justice, dignity, sustainability, peace and a true New Democracy.

Abstract
In the UN Year of Soil, the Manifesto is a celebration of the Soil, our Land, our Territories. It is an invitation to remember that we are the Soil, that humus shapes humanity, and the destruction of the living soil closes our future. The Manifesto shows how critical issues and crises are interconnected and cannot be addressed in silos: soils, land and land grab, farming, climate change, unemployment, growing economic inequality, and growing violence and wars. Based on a transition from the current linear, extractive way of thinking to a circular approach based on reciprocal giving and taking, the Manifesto o!ers a new paradigm for a New Agriculture, a new Circular Economy which can sow the seeds of justice, dignity, sustainability, peace and a true New Democracy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
