Soils4Liberia Project Launch

IITA launches EU-funded Soils4Liberia project to strengthen soil health and food systems in Liberia

Soil is the basis of human existence. After decades of neglect, deforestation, and a lack of reliable data, a bold initiative launched in Monrovia is restoring hope and redefining how Liberia manages its land resources.

IITA–CGIAR, in partnership with the European Union (EU) and the Government of Liberia, officially launched the Liberia Land and Soil Resources Knowledge Project (Soils4Liberia) on 22 October 2025 to transform soil management through science, technology, and collaboration.
