    Coordination Mechanisms for the Implementation of the Africa Fertilizer and Soil Health Action Plan (AFSH-AP) and Soil Initiative for Africa (SIA)
    (African Union Development Agency–NEPAD, 2025-07) African Union Development Agency–NEPAD (AUDA-NEPAD)
    This publication presents the institutional coordination mechanisms for implementing the Africa Fertilizer and Soil Health Action Plan (AFSH-AP) and the Soil Initiative for Africa (SIA). It establishes a multilevel framework for aligning leadership, technical assistance, partnerships, financing and implementation across continental, regional, national and sub-national structures. The document defines the respective responsibilities of the African Union Commission (AUC), African Union Development Agency–NEPAD (AUDA-NEPAD), and Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa (FARA), which is designated as the Technical Support Organization (TSO). It also outlines the functions of the AFSH-AP/SIA Steering Committee, Joint Development Partners Group, Regional Economic Communities, Sub-Regional Research Organizations, regional fertilizer and soil health hubs, national actors and thematic implementation-support coalitions. Particular attention is given to the domestication of continental commitments through Country Action Plans, coordinated resource mobilization, institutional capacity strengthening, knowledge exchange, soil information systems, monitoring and reporting, and alignment with the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP). The framework seeks to promote coherent, African-led implementation, reduce duplication of institutional efforts and strengthen collaboration toward sustainable soil health and fertilizer management across Africa.
