Farmer, women, youth and producer organisations require professional capacity development and training to achieve the scale and scope of agricultural development that will transform the continent and make its rural areas food secure and poverty free. As yet, however, the provision of agricultural skills development and vocational training in Africa has been largely inadequate across the value chain. The NEPAD Agency launched a new project to promote technical vocational education and training in the agriculture sector (ATVET) in support of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP).
