The importance of having youth input into new strategies for Central Asia, China and all other countries/regions cannot be understated. To create systems whereby the youth are interested and committed to becoming involved in agriculture, they must be involved in priority setting. Agricultural innovation systems must make provisions for youth inclusion and input if they are to create any sustainable change.
We know that in many countries decisions are taken by leaders at the highest level without inclusion of other groups. These are not inclusive and can never make real revolutions in the food system that impacts all of those who are part of it. Interesting discussion and thanks to Botir Dosov, who has been calling upon young professionals to contribute to this discussion.
