How agricultural training can help change life plans: Among other things, a SIFA graduate from Senegal describes in the video (duration 5 min, French with English subtitles) what this training means to him and how he would like to motivate other young people to choose the same path.
Background: In the southwest of Senegal, the LED and its implementation partner Swisscontact are supporting several agricultural training centers for young people (project description to follow). The video shows in an impressive way how those responsible want to create a training basis together with Senegalese young people, with the help of which they can shape their future as independent small agricultural entrepreneurs in their home country – because too many young people are still leaving the rural regions today to find work in the capital Dakar or are even risking their lives as boat refugees on their way to Europe.
