Farmers of the Future: Empowering Unemployed Youth

Farmers of the Future: Empowering Unemployed Youth

Organization information

The African Impact Foundation

Location: Muizenburg, South Africa

Summary

The Greater Kruger region of South Africa experiences severe unemployment, with 15-24 year olds making up 70% of all those unemployed in Mpumalanga. Our goal is to equip young adults with theoretically and practically business skill sets to identify and establish entrepreneurial opportunities. We run an Agro-Ecology focused business training program with specific focus on climate resilient indigenous crops. This leads into food-stuffs product development and small business start-up support.
