Client: CORAF

Timeline: 2019

Context

CORAF, with the support of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB), has implemented the NEYAT project, or “Strengthening the Capacity of Youth in Agricultural Entrepreneurship.” The project consists of a mentoring system to strengthen agricultural value chains in various areas related to animal, plant, and fisheries production, and post-production (processing of fishery products, labeling, marketing, and market access). Thus, fifteen (15) technologies were selected based on their ability to generate more income and attract young people to agriculture. Out of the 122 mentors selected, 20 young people, including 10 men and 10 women, received practical online training on the techniques of using “gender-sensitive” technologies and innovations.
