dcterms.abstractThis report highlights IITA's coordinated efforts toward the establishment of the Regional Hub for Fertilizer and Soil Health, aligned with performance indicator IPI 1.2. It details key milestones achieved, including environmental and social compliance, governance structures, stakeholder engagement, and the official launch, showcasing progress in advancing sustainable soil health and fertilizer management across the region. The establishment of the Regional Hub for Fertilizer and Soil Health (RHFSH) progressed significantly in 2024, guided by the leadership and technical direction of IITA. Key activities included: 1. Environmental and Social Screening: Initial compliance with the World Bank Environmental and Social Standard (ESS) Framework enabled IITA to initiate physical renovations of the designated hub building at its headquarters in Ibadan. 2. Recruitment and Staffing: Recruitment processes commenced for the Director, Senior Agronomist, Senior Data Scientist, and Junior Data Scientist, who will oversee the hub's operations. 3. Governance and Consortium Framework: A Hub Advisory Committee was established, and a Consortium Agreement was signed with IITA, OCP Africa, ANPI, UM6P, and IFDC, aligning hub activities with the Priority Actions of the Lomé Declaration and its 10-year Road Map. 4. Country Scoping and Prioritization: Scoping missions were conducted in priority countries, leading to the development of country engagement guidelines and the categorization of countries into three cohorts (waves 1, 2, and 3). 5. Launch and Opening: The RHFSH was officially launched at the Fertilizer Summit in Nairobi on May 8, 2024, followed by its official opening in Ibadan on June 26, 2024. These actions confirms the establishment of the hub per its deliverables by 2024 and solidify its’s foundation, enhancing the capacity to drive sustainable fertilizer and soil health solutions across Sahel and West Africa.en_US
