"We are growing future feeders; we want to ensure there are people to feed us in the future. We teach youths about food and nutrition security, creatively showing them why and how they can contribute towards decreasing hunger and malnutrition now and in the future. By using AgriEduTainment tools, we invented the world's first and only "Food and nutrition Security Superhero Team" lead by "AGRIman and PhotosyntheSista" to rebrand the culture of Agriculture and transform it to AgriCOOLture."
By the year 2050 the population is estimated to reach 9 billion+. Presently the average age of farmers is 55+ years. There is a decreasing interest in young participation in agriculture as a career path. A major reason for this unwillingness of young people to adopt roles in agriculture is due to the lack of proper marketing of this noble and important profession. In the Siparia community our work are resonating with the youths and many young people are now asking for a space to grow food.
To develop a program where we create KidAgripreneurs. Via the AGRIman Playbook (which nme might have to change) we develop it as a curriculum to do this and we can hve it being executed throughout the globe at our different branches of WHYFARM. Kids must come into the programme and leave fully understanding how they are going to tackle food and nutrition security, in one way or the other.
