International Youth Day: Celebrating Youth Agripreneurs

Intergenerational solidarity: creating a world for all ages

Every year on 12th August, the World celebrates International Youth Day to appreciate the role youth play in different sectors of the economy.

In the agriculture sector, the youth have been at the forefront with new innovations solving food system challenges and creating additional employment opportunities for their peers despite existing challenges in the agriculture sector such as access to finance and land among others.

Join us in this upcoming webinar as we mark International Youth Day by celebrating agripreneurs for their contributions towards food and nutrition security.

We are honored to hear from Oumar Diouck, Communications Lead, Heifer Senegal; Jannifer Muthike, Founder, Dudu Masters Limited; and Idoko Nnaedozie George, Founder, Solaristique.

The conversation will be moderated by Mejury Shiri, VALUE4HER Program Coordinator and WAYA Lead at AGRA and Tracy Kimathi, Director at BARIDI. 

The webinar will aim to:

  1. Promote sharing and learning on successful models of how youth are transforming food systems and contributing towards food and nutrition security.
  2. Discuss current challenges facing agripreneurs and provide solutions to these challenges for their businesses to attract financing, market, and business development support services.
