Solutions to youth agripreneurship challenges
Lessons learned from youth agripreneur champions in Uganda
This case study, “Solutions to youth agripreneurship challenges”, is an output deriving from the assessment of the Youth Inspiring Youth in Agriculture (YIYA) Initiative in Uganda. In 2017, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the Government of Uganda, through the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries (MAAIF) as a lead counterpart agency, implemented the YIYA Initiative with the objective of selecting youth lead agripreneurs and fostering them as “mentors” for other youth. The agribusiness models presented in this case study are the results of the interviews with selected youth agripreneurs appointed as “Youth Champions”.
