The Circular Bionutrient Economy Network (CBEN) is a multi-sector network building the research, policy and operational basis for nutrient-recovery from underutilised organic resources such as crop residues, market waste, and livestock and human excreta, to produce fertilisers and soil amendments that farmers can use to improve soil health, livelihoods and food security. CBEN unites an international community from East Africa and beyond in a robust community of purpose comprising of over 100 individuals representing 50+ organisations from 14 countries, majority in Sub-Saharan Africa.
