This baseline study provides a snapshot of the community's social, economic, environmental, and cultural characteristics, which serves as a reference point to measure changes and impacts resulting from IMTA implementation. In this study we identified key socioeconomic and environmental indicators. These indicators include income levels, education, health, gender dynamics, cultural practices, land ownership, livelihoods, infrastructure and service. Establishing a robust socioeconomic and environmental baseline helps in designing context-specific interventions, predicting potential challenges, and identifying key interventions that could promote the adoption and growth of IMTA in Nigeria.PDFCC-BY-NC-4.0baselineInternal Report
