The ENABLE Youth Kenya is a skills and capacity development program for youth. It largely entails training of Youth on agribusiness skills and development of business plans; providing mentorship and linkages to markets and financing. The training is conducted in selected incubation centers, which are rehabilitated and outfitted to cater for better interaction, networking and exchange of innovative ideas.
Co funded by the African Development Bank (AfDB) and the Government of Kenya (GOK), the program aims at providing opportunities for the youth to benefit from the various agribusiness enterprises along the agricultural value chains. It was designed as a response to the increase of youth unemployment, particularly recent graduates from universities, colleges and other tertiary institutions which has become a major concern for the Government of Kenya since nearly 500,000 youth graduate from tertiary institutions and are ready to enter the job market every year.
In this documentary series (My ENABLE Youth Kenya Story), one of the incubatees, Shem Njihia, shares his incubation journey at the Kenya School of Agriculture in Nyeri. Beginning with the source of his passion for agriculture, how he learnt about the program, his incubation experience and how he benefited from it and lastly his future in agriculture.
CPHRM Group and UNES are the program service providers.
