Building on monitoring and conservation policies for global soil biodiversity
Nature Reviews Biodiversity, Published online: 25 November 2025; doi:10.1038/s44358-025-00108-yAlthough long neglected in biodiversity conservation policy, the importance of soil biodiversity is now recognized by the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. This Perspective describes this important policy breakthrough and offers strategies to build on it for successful monitoring and conservation outcomes.
