Youth in Agri-Business
Our Youth in Agri-Business project promotes Agripreneurship among basic school students, encouraging them to develop an interest in agriculture. We believe that involving youth in agriculture from an early age is critical to ensuring the long-term sustainability of the sector.
We currently promote the spirit of Agri-business or Agripreneurship and biodiversity conservation in Basic school. The current curriculum by Ghana Education Service does not place much emphasis on Agriculture. The present integrated science concept does not promote agriculture entirely. This has resulted in a weak agriculture enthusiasm foundation for the youth. Promoting food and nutritional security in Ghana and Africa requires a holistic approach. Therefore, UYAS through its network, is collaborating with schools around the Amasaman and the entire Greater Accra to visit our Centre to learn more about Agriculture and the environment. Every week, we expect to have several schools to tour around the centre, where they will learn about livestock farming( Piggery, goats, different breeds of poultry, and dusks, among others.
Among other interesting learning centres is the aquaculture centre. Here, school children will learn practically about fish and their economic relevance. The concept of a school garden will be promoted among teachers while the backyard garden concept will also be promoted among school pupils. UYAS seeks to ensure that by the next 10 years, we will have youth who have an interest in Agribusiness and working as agripreneurs across Ghana and Africa.
Our Youth in Agri-Business project focuses on:
– Agricultural education and training
School garden establishment and management
Agripreneurship training and mentorship
Career guidance and counseling
We work with schools, teachers, and local communities to promote agricultural education and training among youth. Our goal is to inspire and empower the next generation of African farmers and Agripreneurs.
