🔗 Registration link in bio
🌍 Where ? Accra (Ghana)
❓ What ? This interactive, interdisciplinary event where researchers, policymakers, industry leaders, and stakeholders from around the world will come together to tackle one of the planet’s most pressing challenges: securing a sustainable future for phosphorus.
🔑A key focus of SPS8 will be on engaging African perspectives, recognizing the unique opportunities and challenges faced across the continent in managing phosphorus resources. By bringing together diverse voices and expertise, we aim to foster cross-regional understanding and drive meaningful action.
💡The summit is not just about conversation — it’s about creating impact.
The ultimate aim of this event is to produce synthetic products such as policy recommendations, research agendas, and actionable frameworks that can guide future efforts in phosphorus sustainability in Africa and beyond.
