ISRIC–World Soil Information is an independent science-based foundation with a mission to serve the international community as a custodian of global soil information. We support the development and use of soil information to address global challenges through capacity strengthening, awareness raising and direct cooperation with users and clients.
We host the World Data Centre for Soils (WDC-Soils) since 1989. As a regular member of the ICSU World Data System, we provide a focus for soil-related collections and information services.
Together with our partners we are involved in various externally funded and co-funded research and capacity building projects.
