This year, COVID-19 creates one of the biggest global crisis on both human and socio-economic aspects. As a world association focusing on protecting our natural resources, we understand the importance of water and soil resources in supporting our society during and after this pandemic. We invited WASWAC councilors, advisors, and all members to express their thoughts, opinions, and recommendations about WASWAC development strategies, activities etc. in the post-COVID-19 time. So far, many positive responses have been received, including contributions from the following councilors and advisors:

Prof. José Luis Rubio: A moment for change: soil conservation is investment, not expense

Prof. Ildefonso Pla Sentís: Food and water supply under COVID-19: Role of soil and water management and conservation

Prof. Carmelo Dazzi: Updating the soil paradigm to go through the post COVID-19 world economy

Prof. Seyed Hamidreza Sadeghi: Post COVID-19 perceptions for soil and water resources conservation

Prof. Surinder Singh Kukal: Nature’s front line demonstration: better air and water quality

Prof. Rattan Lal: COVID-19: The world is one family

We are looking forward to have more thoughts, opinions, and recommendations!
