Webinar: Empowering youth to engage in responsible investment in agriculture and food systems

A reflection on the FAO's report “Empowering youth to engage in responsible investment in agriculture and food systems.”

The second LEAP4FNSSA webinar will be held on Tuesday 7 April (13:00 to 14:00 CET) will tackle the social awareness and engagement segment of the FNSSA sectors by shedding the light on the recently released report of the FAO in 2019 “Empowering youth to engage in responsible investment in agriculture and food systems: challenges, opportunities and lessons learned from eleven African countries”

This report aims to enhance understanding on the main challenges and opportunities to empower youth to carry out and benefit from responsible agricultural investment by giving voice to those most concerned – young farmers, agri-entrepreneurs and workers, and those who support them. It summarizes the main findings from a series of multi-stakeholder capacity assessment workshops with participants from eleven countries.
