dc.descriptionMore than two billion people worldwide suffer from hidden hunger due to diets that lack sufficient nutrients despite having the required quantity of food energy. Crops are the main source of minerals and vitamins for both humans and animals, however nutrient-poor staple crops from nutrient-poor soils can result in inadequate nutrient intake and unhealthy development. The Global Soil Partnership (GSP), through the Voluntary Guidelines for Sustainable Soil Management (VGSSM), published by FAO in 2017, aims to address these issues by promoting the role of soils in food security and nutrition and implementing sustainable soil management practices that avoid nutrient mining and soil degradation. In this context, the present project aimed to analysethe knowledge gaps and regulatory and institutional context related to soil fertility and sustainable soil management. Its objective was to promote the application of sustainable soil management (SSM) for nutrition-sensitive agriculture (NSA) in order to enhance the nutritional quality of locally produced food and reduce the impact of hidden hunger.
