Youth Empowerment

Youth Empowerment

Our Youth Empowerment Programme aims to tackle youth unemployment through skills development. We believe skills development can help in reducing unemployment in the country. We provide an opportunity to 10 learners with disabilities every year in partnership with Khulisani Academy. An opportunity for learners with disabilities to get quality education in line with their unique needs and enabling them to join the employment market.

We strongly believe skills development can help in reducing unemployment. Thereby helping to alleviate poverty. This is done through the Plant Production Learnership Programme which incorporates business practices enabling the learners to start their own agri-businesses.

Upon completion the learners are able to take responsible decisions based on a sound understanding of the basic principles of an agri-business and good agricultural practices, in meeting the set objectives and targets within the broader farm plan which includes the economical application of general resources, agricultural production and technical knowledge and skills, within the Plant Production context. With this kind of knowledge the learners are able to start their own agri-businesses.
