In the urban and peri-urban areas across Sub-Saharan Africa, rapid urbanization, population growth and changes in consumer behaviour have resulted in volumes of biodegradable waste, most of which is disposed of through open dumping and landfilling. These practices contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, contamination of water bodies and declining soil productivity. This research assesses the impact of vermicomposting technology for the production of biofertilisers inthe environment in Sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on its role in sustainable waste management, soil health restoration and environmental resilience. Vermicomposting is the biological conversion of organic waste into nutrient-rich vermicompost and vermiwash using earthworms as catalysts. The process is low cost, decentralized and appropriate for rural and urban setup. This research embraces a mixed-methods approach, based on field observations, compost and soil analysis, structured interviews with farmers and waste managers and policy document reviews from case studies in South Africa, Kenya and Ghana. The results indicate that vermicomposting improves soil fertility by increasing organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and microbial activity, while improving water retention. It also reduces household organic waste by over 50%, contributing to lower methane emissions and cleaner urban environments. Regardless of ecological advantages , the implementation is still minimal, owing to policy gaps, limited technical skills and inadequate institutional backing. This study helps to understand how soil and waste interact, shows how waste can be turned into useful resources, supports efforts to restore damaged land and points out policy issues that slow down progress. It concludes that vermicomposting technology holds significant potential to improve environmental quality and promote sustainability in Sub-Saharan Africa. Scaling its impact will require integration into national policies, investment in education and community engagement and incentives for decentralized implementation. This approach is able to foster greener and more resilient communities across the region.
