Workshop On Responsible Principles Guiding New Investments In Agriculture

Youth Inclusion & Participation

Coordinated by

Concerned Africans Youth Forum

The challenge is actual implementation of the fine blue print of the “principles of responsible agricultural investment” by the youth. How can we make the youth a major player in the actualization of responsible agricultural investment in communities?

The need for more radical inclusion

  • AFRICA by 2050 will have the world’s youngest population
  • To ensure food security and the eradication of poverty and hunger, there is the need to take pragmatic measures to implement appropriate    policies and projects aimed at promoting/increasing productivity
  • We are beginning to see increasing interest of the youth in agribusiness
Examples: AGRIPRO’s club activities in University of Ghana, KNUST, Ashesi
University, Central University College, and the University of Cape Coast
