AgriNext Youth Initiative 🚀
AgriNext equips young people with skills, tools, and real pathways into green livelihoods. From school clubs to community innovation hubs, AgriNext turns curiosity into projects, enterprises, and jobs that strengthen local food, energy, and water systems.
Our Goal
Enable youth (JSS–tertiary and out-of-school) to gain practical climate skills, earn green-jobs credentials, and launch community ventures with measurable impact.
