Youth Economic Empowerment through Agribusiness

The overall goal of the project is to create sustainable employment for rural youth in the selected counties through active engagement in agribusiness for wealth creation and poverty reduction.

The target group will be composed of 90 rural youth groups (with members 18-35 years old) from two Kenyan counties with the potential to start or scale up innovative entrepreneurial enterprises in the above-mentioned value chains. A total of 2,250 young people are targeted to benefit from the project (30 per cent of them women).
