Integrated and sustainable water and soil management for climate healing
Slovakia
Global
Slovakia is actively contributing to international dialogues on water and soil and especially on their potential for addressing the climate crisis. We developed an innovative concept for land protection which aims to improve the status and quality of water and soil with a far-reaching positive impact on the stability of climate and of the water cycle, on biodiversity, carbon neutrality and disaster risk reduction. At the core of this solution, Slovakia is developing a comprehensive system for the assessment and funding of the ecosystem and climate services of soil. The implementation tools of this system comprise the "Carbon and Water Bank" certification system and the Climate Fund for Soil, which should ensure the financing of soil and landscape ecosystem services. In parallel, we are developing a unified soil information and monitoring system.

This national commitment draws on two commitments presented by Slovakia at the UN Water Conference in March 2023:
Carbon and Water Bank Certificatoin System - https://sdgs.un.org/partnerships/carbon-and-water-bank-certification-system
White paper: Water for Climate Healing - A New Water Paradigm - https://sdgs.un.org/partnerships/white-paper-water-climate-healing-new-water-paradigm

The NEXUS approach applied supports interdepartmental cooperation, as the water cycle and its flow is relevant to a number of public departments, policies and authorities (water, soil, climate, agriculture, forestry, disaster risk reduction, biodiversity, rural and urban development). The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of the Slovak Republic is the coordination body and certification authority for the Carbon and Water Bank certification system. The Ministry is the leader in building the NEXUS (integrated, holistic) approach of water and soil public policies. The Ministry supports international dialogue and co-operation on the NEXUS approach of water, soil, energy, climate, food and biodiversity.
