In Ghana, agriculture is a key economic driver representing 23% of GDP and 54% of the country’s total workforce. This sector presents significant potential for employment and economic opportunities for young people.
The Accelerating Change Through Innovation in Agricultural TVET (ACTIVATE) program, funded by the Mastercard Foundation through WUSC_Ghana, is a 5-year initiative dedicated to enhancing the well-being and resilience of young women and men across Ghana. This project focuses on building a responsive Agriculture Technical and Vocational Education and Training (ATVET) system that bridges the gap between education, skills training, and industry collaboration.
The ACTIVATE project is targeted to youth, mostly women, including persons with disabilities, refugees, and displaced persons. We are thrilled about the opportunity to contribute to this transformative program and play a role in fostering a strong agricultural sector through innovative training and strategic partnerships. 🌱
