Youth Empowerment

Youth unemployment remains one of the most pressing challenges in Nigeria, with countless young individuals leaving rural communities in search of opportunities in urban areas. Unfortunately, the realities of city life—high living costs, limited job opportunities, and poor work conditions—often leave these youths disillusioned and financially strained.

At I Care Global Development Initiative (ICGDI), we believe that agriculture holds the key to reversing this trend by creating sustainable opportunities for youth empowerment, economic growth, and rural development.

Our Youth Empowerment Through Agriculture program focuses on equipping rural youth with modern agricultural skills, providing access to essential resources such as farm inputs, funding, and tools, and promoting agriculture-based enterprises like agro-processing and agribusiness innovations.

Through comprehensive training, mentorship, and ongoing support, participants gain the knowledge and confidence to build sustainable livelihoods while contributing to local economic growth. By fostering entrepreneurial mindsets and creating access to markets, we empower young people to see agriculture as a dignified and profitable career path, ultimately revitalizing rural communities and reducing youth unemployment.

Join us in empowering the next generation of farmers and agripreneurs. Together, we can build a future where young people thrive, rural communities flourish, and agriculture drives sustainable development.
