SoilTribes Wins the 2026 .eu Web Award for Sustainability Champion!
With 7,827 public votes and a perfect score of 10/10, soiltribes.eu has been recognized in the Sustainability Champion category, celebrating the power of digital communication and the community behind it.
We are proud to announce that soiltribes.eu is the winner of the 2026 .eu Web Awards in the Sustainability Champion category!
Organized by EURid, the .eu Web Awards recognize outstanding websites using the .eu domain. Following the jury evaluation and public voting, SoilTribes achieved a perfect combined score of 10 out of 10, securing this year’s Sustainability Champion title.
This recognition is particularly meaningful because it celebrates more than a website. It celebrates a growing community working to reconnect people with soil through science, technology, arts, knowledge sharing, and collective action.
A European Recognition for Sustainability and Digital Communication
Winning the Sustainability Champion category is an important milestone for SoilTribes, a Horizon Europe project contributing to the EU Mission: A Soil Deal for Europe.
From the beginning, we envisioned soiltribes.eu as more than an information platform. We wanted to create an accessible digital space where people could discover the importance of soil, connect with initiatives across Europe, explore resources, and find opportunities to get involved.
Developed by Youthmakers Hub, the partner responsible for SoilTribes’ communication, dissemination, and exploitation activities, the website brings this vision to life through an accessible, engaging, and user-friendly digital experience. Its development reflects a commitment to making scientific knowledge and environmental initiatives more accessible, connecting diverse audiences and encouraging meaningful participation.
Behind this achievement stands the SoilTribes community
During the public voting phase, soiltribes.eu received 7,827 votes, reflecting the remarkable support of people and organisations who believe in our mission.
To everyone who voted, shared our campaign, encouraged others to participate, or supported us along the way: thank you!
Your engagement helped turn this recognition into a shared achievement.
But our gratitude extends far beyond the voting campaign.
The SoilTribes website would not be what it is without the people and organizations who continuously contribute to the project. Every activity organized, every resource developed, every story shared, and every collaboration established gives meaning to our digital presence.
The award may carry the name soiltribes.eu, but the achievement belongs to everyone who makes SoilTribes a living, growing community.
Celebrating Everyone Behind the .eu Web Awards
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to EURid for organizing the .eu Web Awards and for recognizing the role of digital platforms in connecting people, sharing knowledge, and supporting meaningful initiatives.
The awards provide an opportunity to celebrate the creativity, dedication, and work of website owners and teams across Europe.
We also extend our warmest congratulations to all participants, finalists, and winners of the 2026 .eu Web Awards.
Each participating website represents ideas, dedication, and the efforts of people working to bring something valuable to their audiences.
We are honored to be recognized alongside other initiatives and organizations contributing to Europe’s digital landscape.
An Award That Strengthens Our Commitment
Winning the Sustainability Champion award is a moment of celebration, but it is also a reminder of the responsibility that comes with making knowledge accessible.
This is a renewed commitment to continue doing what brought us here: sharing knowledge, connecting communities, encouraging participation, and turning awareness into action.
We will continue to develop soiltribes.eu as a space where people can learn, exchange ideas, discover opportunities, and follow the collective efforts taking place across our network.
We will continue highlighting the work of our partners and communities, making soil-related resources accessible, and bringing different voices into the conversation about soil health.
Above all, we will continue working to strengthen the connection between soil and society.
Thank You for Being Part of Our Journey!
Explore soiltribes.eu, discover our activities and resources, and become part of the SoilTribes community.
