Happy International Youth Day!

To our dedicated YEAN Extensionists, farmers, and young agripreneurs: you are not just the future of agriculture, you are transforming it today.

For the past 12 years, YEAN has been working to craft, shape, and strengthen meaningful youth engagement in agriculture creating opportunities for young people to learn, innovate, build enterprises, serve farmers, and contribute to the transformation of our food systems.

Dear YOUTH, keep innovating, keep growing, and keep inspiring. Together, we are building a more productive, resilient, and youth-driven agricultural sector.

Happy International Youth Day!

Today at #RwandaAgrishow, We were honored to welcome Minister of State Solange Uwituze and DG of Agriculture Modernization Dr.Patrick Karangwa from @RwandaAgri to the YEAN stand, where they explored how we're empowering youth and farmers through agri-innovation, knowledge sharing, and agribusiness opportunities.

We also hosted our partners farmers under the CSA Project from Ntyazo Sector, @NyanzaDistrict, who visited to learn about agricultural technologies and innovations transforming the sector.
The growing interest from farmers and stakeholders reinforces our commitment to building a more productive and inclusive agricultural future.

Today, at @RwandaAgriBoard Rubirizi Station (Mulindi), YEAN participated in the validation workshop organized by @RwandaAgriBoard for the Quarter Four (Q4) progress and achievements of the 2024–2025 Operation and Management of Irrigation Schemes (OMIS) project, Lot 3, covering three districts: @Kamonyi , @Muhangadis , and @RuhangoDistrict .

Agricultural extension is most effective when driven by passionate and innovative young people. At YEAN, the success of our extension work in Rwanda is powered by young agronomists who dedicate their time to working in the field, living alongside farmers, and supporting their growth.

Our extension and agribusiness coaching goes to young agripreneurs such as Gilbert Niyoyankunze from Kirehe District, owner of NKUNZE Company Ltd, which produces avocado seedlings of Hass, Fuerte, and Ettinger varieties.

Gilbert manages an avocado nursery on 0.5 hectares and cultivates avocados on an additional 2.5 hectares, and employs 3 permanent young men, contributing to both local agribusiness and Rwanda’s food security.

To mark the #InternationalYouthDay2025, we have kicked off a 2-day Youth Caravan & Learning Exchange, uniting 56 passionate young agriculture extension agents, young agripreneurs from the YEFFA Eastern Consortium. From Kigali to @RwamaganaDistr, @KayonzaDistr, and @Gatsiboistr

Our second #YEFFA Youth Caravan stopover was at J.S AGR (Culture Import and Export Co. Ltd), a Chinese company promoting chili agriculture in @EasternProvince. They import chili seeds and work with local farmers, especially youth by offering training and guaranteeing a market for their harvest before planting.
Youths learned the full chili value chain from farm production to final packaging for export.
