This years theme also calls for action to unlock equal rights, power, and opportunities for all, creating a future where no one is left behind. Central to this vision is empowering youth, particularly young women and adolescent girls, as catalysts for lasting change.
“The year 2025 is a pivotal moment in the global pursuit of gender equality and women’s empowerment, as it marks the 30th anniversary of the historic Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, serving as a reminder of achievements, challenges, and the urgent need for action to create a more equitable world, emphasizing women’s rights, equality, and empowerment.” @Osulah

Value4HER Forum | #Investinwomen
Remarks by Nana Amoah, Director of Gender, Youth & inclusiveness, AGRA
Women make up over 60% of Kenya's agri-labor force, yet agribusiness is still dominated by men. Through #Value4Her, we're working to bridge these gaps and empower women with the resources and opportunities they deserve.

Day 1 | Linking smallholders to structured markets and enhancing last-mile service delivery
Winnie - “Women in general contribute over 50% of the workforce in agriculture, then how do we link them to markets? What is the missing link? We therefore need to listen to all voices”.
Olusola - “At AGRA, our inclusive approach to supporting smallholder farmers is through Village Based Advisors (VBA). These are people who work in the community, and this approach has helped to link smallholder farmers to markets. VBAs can reach farmers effectively and efficiently. They have become early adopters and connect farmers to good farming practices. We have started scaling VBAs to Super VBA, (agro-dealers and aggregators.”

"What are governments doing about creating an enabling environment? If you are going to plan for women in the policy space, then don’t plan for her without her. She needs to be able to speak and to be heard. Her contribution needs to be put into practice."- @Osulah, Head of Gender, AGRA.
