Activity under preparation Agricultural Transformation through skills upgrading of women and youth in Rwanda The Overall Objective of this action is to increase sustainability, climate resilience and inclusivity of agriculture practices by strengthening skills of women and youth including persons with disability in Rwanda. The action is built around two specific objectives:1.Improve access of women and youth to quality skills set and formal certification in agricultural practices including climate-resilient agricultural practices2.Enhance effectiveness of mechanisms for insertion of women and youth in the agriculture labour market, with a focus on climate-resilient and sustainable farming The action will contribute to the Government of Rwanda¿s goal to create 1,500,000 jobs by 2024 and for modernisation of the sector, which remains a source of sustenance for many as it accounts for the highest employment share as well as a source of sustenance for a significant portion of people outside the labour force.This action is a building block of the Team Europe Initiative on "Investing in Sustainable and Inclusive Agricultural Transformation" by integrating essential skills adaptation support, emphasizing aid to infrastructure and value chains within the agriculture sector. This approach aligns with the TVET focal sector of the Rwanda multi-annual indicative programme (MIP), which aims to address the primary challenges in the TVET sector: access issues, specifically affordability and proximity; enhancing the quality of education, including school management and curricula; and aligning learning outcomes with the demands of the private sector. Additionally, it aligns with the agriculture MIP focal sector and, more specifically, the ongoing EUR 59 million budget sector reform performance contract on Transformational Climate-Smart and Inclusive Agriculture (AAP 2021). The latter aims to support the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Finance and Environment in fostering Rwanda¿s agricultural transition to socially and environmentally inclusive food systems, ensuring Rwanda¿s environmental and climate sustainability. This budget support encloses consolidation of vulgarisation schemes in Rwanda, including upgrading skills of farmers in climate smart agriculture.The proposed action complements and fills the skills capacity gaps in the agriculture sector advocating for an integrated strategy that not only caters to infrastructural needs but also encompasses comprehensive capacity-building support throughout the entire value chains. On the latter, the action will seek to strengthen where possible high value chains such as horticulture (avocado, macadamia nuts, passion fruit for example already&nbsp;have&nbsp;business case studies), given their impact on employment, income and nutritional status.
