ECHO Ambassadors have a special role in the Project. If you are a community leader, a teacher, or simply a soil enthusiast with a knack for engaging others, this might be the perfect role for you.
You can learn more about becoming and ECHO Ambassador here:
Each Citizen Scientist will receive a toolkit containing everything they need to collect a soil sample.
As an Ambassador, it will be your responsibility to distribute kits among your group of citizen scientist participants. It will also be your responsibility to collect the kits after the sampling is done. You will receive instructions on how to send them for lab analysis when you join ECHO.
You can learn more about the soil collection kit here:
We are proud to have created a community of dedicated soil health and soil science enthusiasts. ECHO would not be what it is without them.
The names and faces you see here are just a few among our amazing team of Ambassadors. Learn more about them (or reach out and say hello!) during Ambssador Mondays on our social media sites.

Depois de ter o seu kit de ferramentas, pode selecionar o local perfeito para a recolha de amostras de solo.
If you don’t have a site selected yet, consider one of the following: your garden, your vegetable patch, your field or orchard, a nearby meadow, a city park, a community garden, a lawn by a children’s playground, a nature trail, a forest, a patch of green by the road. Make sure the location you choose is safe (watch for car traffic!).
Se estiver a recolher várias amostras ou se fizer parte de um grupo que recolhe várias amostras, certifique-se de que estão espaçados. Pode recolher amostras da mesma área, mas tente manter os pontos de recolha a pelo menos alguns metros de distância, se possível (50m). Lembre-se de que precisará de um kit de ferramentas separado para cada amostra de solo.

Are you trying to engage children or teens? Do you enjoy gamified learning yourself? Check out SoiLab for Teens: an online resource designed for young soil enthusiasts.
You can view all data ECHO generated in our Data Repository. Your samples will be added to ECHOREPO after their lab analysis is completed.
You can get familiar with the procedure even before sampling. Download training materials in your preferred language to get started. You can also download all training materials through the ECHO App.
