QDD N°91 : Rethinking agricultural and rural training systemically with a range of actors at territorial level

In sub-Saharan Africa, demographic projections indicate that the rural population is expected to continue growing, reaching 980 million people by 2050. Young people under the age of twenty-five living in rural areas will make up two-thirds of the population. Agriculture will remain one of the primary sources of employment.[1] The continent will need to deal with cohorts of Young people of working age entering the job market with very little education and no vocational training; at country level, this figure will be in the hundreds of thousands.
