Youth Agropastoral Entrepreneurship Promotion Programme.

Youth Agropastoral Entrepreneurship Promotion Programme

This programme is designed to promote a policy, organizational and institutional framework that assists people in creating and developing successful agropastoral businesses. It has three components:

• Development of viable agropastoral businesses
• Access to financial services
• Improvements to the organizational, policy, institutional and legal framework

The programme area is concentrated in four regions – Centre, South, Littoral and Northwest – which account for about 40 per cent of the youth population living in rural areas. Activities will target young people in rural communities where there is the greatest potential to create a structured value chain for agropastoral production and related occupations.
