Southern and Central Africa Regional Innovation Hub Official Launch

Southern and Central Africa’s regional agricultural productivity and food security is facing increasing pressures due to unpredictable weather patterns and increasingly frequent severe weather events. With the livelihoods of 60% of the population in the region tied to agriculture, smallholder farmers – particularly women – and other end-users need innovative solutions that will mitigate the effects.

Meet the Southern and Central Africa Regional Innovation Hub (S/CA RIH) which will support water- and/or energy-efficient innovations through grants, technical assistance, and investment facilitation. By helping the innovations expand their reach, the S/CA RIH impacts smallholder farmers and their livelihoods, food security, gender equality, climate resilience, and has a positive impact on all living things.
