To achieve these goals, the participants agreed to consolidate the Asian Soil Partnership by establishing the Secretariat hosted by Thailand and a Steering Committee that is composed by :
Chair : Thailand
East Asia : Republic of Korea, Mongolia : (Japan
to be confirmed)
Southeast Asia : Cambodia, Thailand, Indonisia
South Asia : India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka

1. Pillar 1 : Promote sustainable management of soil resource protection, conservation and sustainable productivity
Soil Challenges and gaps
- Soil degradation (erosion, nutrient depletion, contamination, landslides particularly in sloping areas)
- Soil Organic Matter depletion- Soil Fertility and fertilizer management- Soil management in unfavorable ecosystem- Soil salinity/salinization.- Peatlands/acid sulphate soils management- Soil and water pollution.- Climate change adaptation and mitigation- Water scarcity (water harvesting)- Overgrazing.Chair : Dr. S.K. Chaudhari (India)
All partners agreed to establish working groups for the five GSP pillars of Action

- Dissemination of technologies- Lacking/insufficient appropriate policy, national
action programme on land degradation and desertification
- Lack of awareness- Encroachment of forest land used for agriculture
purpose (deforestation, urbanization land use changes)
