“Earth is Our Home”
Second National Soil
Olympics for School Children in Georgia
In March 2017 the Mikheil
Sabashvili Institute of Soil Science,
Agrochemistry and Melioration of the
Agricultural University of Georgia, the
Georgian Society of Soil Scientists
and the Georgian Association of
Professional Chemists organized the second
national Soil Olympics for school
children with the topic: “Earth is our
home” in Tbilisi. The goal of the
Olympics was capacity building and raising
interest in natural sciences, and
soil science in
particular.
The Olympics were held in two
steps:
In the first step, 132 pupils from all over the country
participated in the
competition: Samegrelo, Imereti, Kakheti, Guria,
Kartli, Adjara and several
schools of the capital of Tbilisi. 47 pupils were
selected for the second
round.
The second step of the
Olympics was held at the Agricultural University of
Georgia on 25 March
2017, where 42 pupils from 18 schools took part. The
questions were on soil
types of Georgia, soil degradation processes and
soils first described in
Georgia.
