AANI Initiatives

AANI Projects

Explore AANI's key development projects focused on hunger eradication, value chains, climate resilience, and advocacy.

The Outgrow Hunger project was launched on 16th October, 2020 towards addressing the negative impacts of COVID-19 pandemic which escalated the level of multidimensional hunger in Africa; and recorded incessant increase on the prices of food items and consequently weak purchasing power. The project has immensely ameliorated the sufferings of the people.

Piloted across six (6) States in Nigeria comprising Kaduna, Gombe, Plateau, Ogun, Anambra, and Rivers State (representing each geo-political zone), the initiative strengthens local food production, supports smallholder farmers with technology and credit, expands social safety nets, and enhances resilience against climate change and conflicts.

The full implementation phase of the project is ongoing where AANI is collaborating with relevant development agencies, organized private sector, government at all levels, civil society organizations, among others, to ensure that hunger is reduced to the barest level.

Agricultural Research and Development

Our tradition is innovation. We mentor smallholder farmers to develop agricultural products and services, ranging from improved seedlings, organic fertilizers, nursery plants, hatcheries, aquaponics, hydroponics, and arable crops in commercial quantities.

In partnership with our Technical Partner — PATPA Nigeria, we provide food items and humanitarian support through our Feed a Child Initiative, Right to Food Campaign, and "Nutrition is Health, Nigeria!" projects. These provide relief and financial support targeting women, youth, and the aged in rural communities.

  • Training and Technical Support - Farm Education: In collaboration with PATPA Nigeria, we provide Farm Education, Entrepreneurial Development, and Financial Inclusion programs through workshops and symposia in multiple Nigerian languages.
  • Monitoring and Evaluation: We do NOT just train but also provide access to funding, mentoring, monitoring, and evaluation to enhance a knowledge-based approach to innovative agriculture.
