MOOC « Sols et Changement Climatique »

As part of its « Soils and Climate » mission, Fondation Avril supports Agreenium through the development of an online course (MOOC – « Sols et Changement Climatique », Soils and Climate Change), to help spread knowledge about soils and their role in climate change and food security.

This MOOC will be provided by the best specialists in the subject, under scientific and educational supervision of Claire Chenu, Professor at AgroParisTech and Soil Ambassador to FAO. The target audience is an « informed » public (bachelor/master’s degree) with a scientific background and interested in climate change, agriculture and the environment.
