Presented by Vara Prasad [Sustainable Intensification Innovation Lab - Kansas State University] about the SIA Framework. This poster was presented on 5 - 8 February 2019 at the Africa RISING Program Learning Event.

1. Sustainable Intensification Assessment Framework (SIAF) is a method to holistically assess
the performance of research innovation(s) that helps to identify synergies and tradeoffs
across multiple domains (productivity,economics, environmental, human, and social).
“Sustainable Intensification Assessment Framework (SIAF)”
Approach:
o The SIAF comprises a methods
manual which provides most
commonly used indicators,
metrics, and methods of
assessment for each domain
organized at four different scales
(field/plot, farm, household,
community/landscape).
o The guide provides a step-by-
step process for selecting
appropriate indicators; assessing
tradeoffs and synergies;
operationalizing the tool; and
presenting outputs.
o The SI toolkit is an interactive
web-based method to practice
the framework and quantify
tradeoffs and synergies of
selected innovations.
