Dans le cadre des efforts visant \u00e0 cr\u00e9er des partenariats rentables et \u00e0 soutenir les b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires du projet YEASA au Nigeria, le Projet YEASA<\/a> consortium, Universit\u00e9 Afe Babalola (ABUAD)<\/a>), IITA<\/a>, et AfricaRice<\/a>, a organis\u00e9 un atelier pour les parties prenantes nationales et locales sur la feuille de route pour l'investissement public et priv\u00e9 dans la jeunesse dans le secteur agricole. Projet YEASA<\/a> les b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires, les institutions gouvernementales, les ONG et les institutions de r\u00e9glementation ont assist\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L'atelier a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 des startups agroalimentaires issues de la mise en \u0153uvre de projets afin de faciliter les liens avec les opportunit\u00e9s du secteur public et priv\u00e9 pour les jeunes. L'\u00e9v\u00e9nement a eu lieu le 21 juillet 2022, au si\u00e8ge de l'IITA, \u00e0 Ibadan, en pr\u00e9sence de Dr Olabode Adetoyi, Commissaire \u00e0 l'Agriculture et \u00e0 la S\u00e9curit\u00e9 Alimentaire de l'\u00c9tat d'Ekiti.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le commissaire a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'il avait particip\u00e9 au programme parce qu'il comprenait l'importance de la jeunesse pour l'\u00e9conomie nig\u00e9riane, tout en f\u00e9licitant les partenaires de mise en \u0153uvre du projet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNous pouvons constater les excellents r\u00e9sultats et les t\u00e9moignages des b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires. Plus de 600 jeunes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 form\u00e9s et responsabilis\u00e9s dans les \u00c9tats d'Oyo et d'Ekiti, ainsi qu'en R\u00e9publique du B\u00e9nin. J'ai h\u00e2te que le programme YEASA devienne national en raison de sa m\u00e9thode unique de formation et d'autonomisation des jeunes. Il semble que ce sera un grand d\u00e9fi pour nous, en tant que gouvernement, d'adopter ce programme prometteur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le chef de projet YEASA, le professeur Amos Onasanya, tout en soulignant les activit\u00e9s du projet, a expliqu\u00e9 que pendant la pand\u00e9mie de COVID-19, les partenaires de mise en \u0153uvre ont explor\u00e9 l'utilisation des plateformes TIC pour former les b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaires du projet, ce qui FIDA<\/a> recommand\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le professeur Onasanya a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'au cours des trois derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es de mise en \u0153uvre, deux mille jeunes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 employ\u00e9s directement et indirectement gr\u00e2ce au projet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The project has done a good job of teaching technical, entrepreneurial, and life skills to the beneficiaries and giving them a grant to start their agribusiness. However, now we want these micro-enterprises to scale up by taking advantage of the opportunities offered by the stakeholders participating in this workshop,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au cours de l'atelier, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 conseill\u00e9 aux futurs propri\u00e9taires de jeunes entreprises agroalimentaires d'avoir une attitude positive et d'explorer les opportunit\u00e9s de financement disponibles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe know that the business environment is tough. That is why we have a group for young entrepreneurs in the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture (NACCIMA) Youth Entrepreneurs. We mentor entrepreneurs, provide them with finance, and most importantly, access to the institutional market. We are ready to work with YEASA,” said Chief Kola Akosile, National Vice President, NACCIMA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stakeholders appreciated the opportunity to hear the success stories of the agripreneurs and see their products. “This event is a good opportunity to get to know the YEASA project better. I am impressed with the support YEASA gave to agripreneurs and the businesses that have emerged. I will do everything in my power to help these businesses get their NAFDAC certification,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le projet \"Emploi des jeunes dans l'agroalimentaire et l'agriculture durable (YEASA)\" vise \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer les moyens de subsistance des jeunes des zones rurales gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 l'agriculture et aux entreprises agricoles, en dotant les jeunes de comp\u00e9tences techniques, commerciales, entrepreneuriales, financi\u00e8res et de vie am\u00e9lior\u00e9es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
