Join the 2020 YPARD Albania Café!

YPARD Albania in collaboration with the Agricultural University of Tirana is organizing the YPARD Café Albania to discuss the impact of COVID19 in the engagement of young professionals in agribusiness and agriculture. The activity will be held online on 26 November 2020 through the zoom platform. This event aims to place more focus on youth engagement in contemporary times by fostering interaction between young people and experts in agriculture and agribusiness regarding opportunities that increase youth employment and contributions to socio-economic recovery.

The Café will bring together Young Professionals and experts on youth engagement in the country to discuss issues of young people related to their interest in agriculture. This is to position young people themselves as influencers in the strategic direction of youth engagement in sustainable systems within the country, in the region and beyond.
