Promotion of agriculture among the youth, both online and offline, remains a key focus at YPARD.
2016 was no exception especially given that YPARD was celebrating its 10 years anniversary. As a network, we not only celebrated our 10 years journey but went ahead to continue fulfilling our mandate of ensuring that young professionals realize their full potential and contribute proactively towards innovative agricultural development.
These achievements are well reflected in the YPARD 2016 annual report and among them include;
A series of five international hangouts enabled national teams to learn and exchange with other teams on topics such as communications, team building, negotiations, fundraising and the next phase of the mentoring program.
In addition, national teams around the world organized capacity development opportunities to empower members on agripreneurship in the Democratic Republic of Congo; social media (ICT4AG) in Trinidad and Tobago; grant application writing in Nepal and communications and finance in Togo. Increasingly, our members apply the knowledge they have gained through YPARD opportunities to train their peers more notably in Nepal, Trinidad and Tobago and the Philippines. This is true impact of the network!
To sum up, here are some of the top 10 key achievements for YPARD for 2016
