Yara International

Creating lasting impact beyond graduation 🎓 Yara Africa & Asia (YAA) has upskilled over 2,500 retailers and distributors in India and Kenya over the last two years – but our impact doesn’t end there. The team in India had the incredible opportunity to reconnect with 2023 alumni for insightful discussions. This dedicated workshop brought together a focus group of channel partners to explore current pain points in the retailer value chain and to understand untapped growth opportunities. 🎯 Through ideation sessions, roadblock mapping exercises, and structured frameworks, YAA is continuing to empower retailers and distributors to strengthen their businesses. 💡 Forming a trusted network, the alumni engaged and collaborated through solution-driven frameworks, supporting each other in long-term, sustainable, and resilient growth. 🌱 growEnterprise, our digitally enabled business training programme powered by growX, will continue to amplify impact through collaboration with partners. At YAA, we remain committed to closing the gap in food security and supporting sustainable livelihoods. 🤝 #growX #ThryveInnovationCoLab

To offer them a hands-on look at life in industry and inspire them about the many career paths ahead. From exciting plant tours to informative presentations by our trainers and apprentices, these inquisitive minds got a valuable glimpse into their parents' world. 🌱 Along the way, they learned how fertilizer nourishes plants and soil, playing a key role in growing the food that sustains us all. Thank you, Yara Brunsbüttel, for inspiring the next generation of talent! 👏 #KnowledgeGrows

Shipping accounts for 3% of global emissions, and without action, this number will continue to rise. 🚢 Despite the urgent need to cut emissions, conventional fossil fuels still dominate the industry. Zero- and near-zero fuels (ZNZs), such as low-emission ammonia, can be part of the solution, but they must become cost-competitive to drive real change. 📝 The International Maritime Organization’s upcoming regulations can create an effective framework that accelerates global shipping's decarbonization journey, by ensuring price parity for scalable ZNZ fuels. Now is the time to act.

📢 Want to be accepted into the Thryve Accelerator Programme in Kenya? Submit your application for the Soil Health Innovation Challenge now! Did you know that only 20% of Kenya’s land is considered arable, and at least 13% of this land has acidic soil? Yet this is the land that smallholder farmers have to feed the continent’s growing population. Together with The World Bank, we are excited to fast-track agri-tech innovators in developing scalable solutions to enable smallholder farmers to manage and improve soil health for sustainable agriculture. 🌱 Ensuring sustainable food security is an integral focus at #ThryveInnovationCoLab. Through this challenge, we aim to create a lasting impact on the agriculture sector in Kenya.

The green transition needs green numbers.   📝 For zero- and near-zero fuels (ZNZs) to scale, predictable regulations are essential. Without them, uncertainty will delay or even cancel much-needed investments.   🎯 The International Maritime Organization’s Net-Zero Framework must provide the right incentives to drive demand and ensure willingness to pay for ZNZ fuels.   ✅ A strong and stable regulatory framework will unlock investment and enable ZNZ fuels to compete with fossil fuels. Without it, the transition will stall.   The shipping industry is ready to move - but member states of the IMO must set the course. ⚓

The IMO must take bold action to drive zero-emission shipping. 🚢 Right now, regulatory uncertainty is slowing investments in zero- and near-zero fuels (ZNZs). Without clear policy measures, fossil fuels will remain the default choice for years to come. 📝 Member states of the International Maritime Organization have a historic opportunity to set ambitious rules that create demand and provide certainty for ZNZ investments. 🎯 The IMO’s Net-Zero Framework must ensure that ZNZ fuels become a viable and competitive option - not just an aspiration. ✅ Clear, predictable regulations will unlock investments and scale-up. Weak policies will stall progress. The time to act is now. ⚓
