  • Beschreibung: Soil contamination in the Western Balkans is a significant challenge, hampered by inadequate legal frameworks, lack of comprehensive field data, and insufficient site investigations. This report aims to support the JRC's efforts to fill information gaps on soil pollution across the Western Balkans based on an extensive review of the current evidence base of the state of Western Balkans soils. The purpose is to identify the extent of pollution at country and regional level, but also highlighting policy areas of concern. Establishing robust monitoring networks with standardized data collection is crucial for understanding soil health and developing effective remediation strategies. Harmonized soil monitoring and testing programs, aligned with the Green Deal and pan-EU soil initiatives, are essential for cross-border collaboration and policy implementation. This work is part of the JRC project "Environment and Climate in Enlargement" and contributes to the Western Balkans Agenda on Innovation, Research, Education, Culture, Youth, and Sports, particularly in developing a soil pollution database and supporting capacity building for the Green Agenda. This work underscores the urgent need for integrated soil protection policies to ensure healthy soils and sustainable land use in the Western Balkans.
