From Honeycombs to Green Jobs: Empowering Zimbabwe's Rural Youth through Beekeeping
Channel: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Date: 2023-06-13

The FAO's Green Jobs for Rural Youth Employment (GJ4RYE) project is transforming lives in Zimbabwe by creating green jobs, particularly in beekeeping. The initiative provides technical training and support, promoting biodiversity conservation while generating profits from bee-products. This video highlights the stories of young beneficiaries, like Ennia Nyikayaramba and Evelyn Mutuda, who, through GJ4RYE and the Bee Farmer Field Schools programme, have enhanced their skills and embarked on successful entrepreneurial ventures. Funded by KOICA, the project is a beacon of hope, offering solutions to the triple challenge of climate change, youth unemployment, and rural poverty.
