Feasibility study for a spirulina production project in central Senegal

 

Senegal, together with its international partners, is looking for new value chains which, if developed and sustained, can benefit the rural population in terms of nutrition,

Kenia_Jugendbeschäftigung in der Agrar- und Ernährungswirtschaft im Westen Kenias

Die Reduzierung der Arbeitslosenquote Jugendlicher ist ein erklärtes Ziel der kenianischen Regierung, um der sozialen und ökonomischen Marginalisierung weiter Teile der jungen Generation entgegenzuwirken. Das Wirtschaftsklima in Kenia ist privatsektorfreundlich. Die Agrar- und Ernährungswirtschaft hat dabei aufgrund der Größe des Sektors, der Vielfalt und Differenzierung der WSK und einer hohen Arbeitsintensität bei steigender Nachfrage nach hochwertigen Lebensmitteln das größte Potenzial zur Schaffung von Einkommen und Arbeit für Jugendliche.
