<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">African Forum for
Agricultural Advisory Services (<a href="http://www.afaas-africa.org/" target="_blank">AFAAS</a>) is a Continental body that brings
National Agricultural Extension and Advisory Services (AEAS) under one
umbrella. Its mission is </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">to </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">promote
lesson learning and add value to initiatives in agricultural advisory services
through sharing of information and increased professional interaction</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;">,
and its goal is </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif";">to
enhance utilization of improved knowledge and innovations by agricultural value
chain actors for improving productivity oriented towards their individual and
national development objectives. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Currently AFAAS is
active in 17 countries. In each of these countries it works through Country
Fora (CF) that bring together diverse public and private sector individuals and
organizations operating at different levels of the national agricultural innovation
systems. These include farmers/ farmers’ organisations, agricultural advisory
service providers, policy makers, and the whole range of actors who support
value chains. The CF provide all these actors a space to share their
experiences, exchange information, providing services to each other and
identify opportunities for AEAS-related innovations in their domains of work.
AFAAS builds the institutional mechanisms for this to happen. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">In the countries where such
mechanisms have taken root, AFAAS has embarked on facilitating them to
undertake communication, information and knowledge management (CIKM) as a
service to the members. The KM activities focus on facilitating and building
capacity for: (i) communication and engagement between members, (ii) generation
of content that can be shared between members, (iii) adoption of tools and
platforms for engagement/communication and content generation, (iv) network
sustainability, and (v) governance to ensure that the CF is credible as a
knowledge network. The AFAAS Secretariat has put in place mechanisms to support
the activities. These include a website, a virtual social networking platform
(VSNP) and presence on various social media platforms to support web-based KM.
It also supports non-web based KM activities in the CF such as production of
newsletters, workshops, conferences and marketplaces for information and
services.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-font-family: Meiryo;">AFAAS through the CFs is soliciting services of

<span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Depuis deux
ans, une vingtaine de jeunes sont suivi dans la mise en place au quotidien de leurs
activités. Les jeunes ont une volonté manifeste de s’impliquer davantage dans
le secteur, mais décrient toujours les moyens limités pour l’extension de leur
projet. Aussi ils n’ont pas vraiment accès aux semences de qualité pour
optimiser leurs facteurs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> A l’occasion de la troisième conférence du
Groupe Consultatif pour la Recherche Agricole et le Développement (<a href="http://www.gfar.net/gcard/gcard3/gcard-global-consultation" target="_blank">GCARD3</a>), une
<a href="http://blog.gfar.net/2016/02/17/calling-on-all-young-agripreneurs-submit-your-project/" target="_blank">session spéciale</a> est une fois de plus organiser pour permettre aux jeunes
porteurs de projet d’exposer leurs idées et créativités. C’est une occasion pour mieux défendre les
intérêts des jeunes et faire un plaidoyer pour leur implication effective dans
les décisions mondiale de recherche et de développement de l’agriculture. Mon
expérience dans le domaine et mes actions de plaidoyer déjà menées dans au
niveau national que continental, sont
des facteurs favorable à ma participation à cette rencontre importante. Parce que les jeunes ont besoins d’orientations et d’encadrement, ils ont besoins
d’être inspiré pour développer leur potentiel.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">C’est
pourquoi un appel est lancé aux dirigeants africains notamment de la sous
région d’Afrique centrale, de respecter les clauses des accords de Maputo (<a href="http://www.nepad-caadp.org/" target="_blank">PDDAA</a>) et
surtout de la déclaration de Malabo sur l’accélération de la croissance
agricole. Les jeunes sont le diésel qui fera fonctionner les machines de
production agricole pour la croissance économique en Afrique. Une seule chose
reste à faire c’est de leur faire confiance et de leur accordé un peu
d’attention sur les idées novatrices surtout à cette nouvelle ère de
l’agriculture numérique inclusive en Afrique.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

l’investissement éducatif de sorte qu’avec les moyens qui sont mis à leur
disposition, ils puissent construire un développement qui dure et survive à
leur époque. C’est tout l’en jeu et le défi de notre siècle où le concept de <b>Développement Durable</b> gagne du terrain.
Or évoquer un développement qui dure revient implicitement à convoquer la
Communauté Éducative tout entière, dans une approche holistique, c’est-à-dire
mettre en cohérence l’étendue de ses
composantes : Enseignants, Élèves, parents et apprentis certes ; mais également
Enfants, Époux et Épouses, Hommes de culture et de médias ; sans oublier ceux
qui animent de manière artisanale ou industrielle la vie économique : les
Entreprises » .</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Si l’accès à l’éducation de base constitue le deuxième objectif des <a href="http://www.un.org/fr/millenniumgoals/bkgd.shtml" target="_blank">OMD</a>, le Cameroun peut se féliciter aujourd'hui d’être parmi les pays
ayant l’honneur de l’avoir atteint. Malgré la crise des années 80-90, l’éducation
demeure l’un des axes majeurs et prioritaires du Gouvernement camerounais. Les chiffres et les nombreux engagements de l’État
peuvent le prouver aujourd'hui. Malheureusement, aucune université camerounaise
ne figure dans le classement mondial, la question de l’emploi et de l’absorption
socio-professionnelle des diplômés reste d’actualité, les déperditions et les
problè<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>mes d’orientation sont encore des sujets de projection…
Par ailleurs, les nombreuses initiatives, grandes spécialités et champs
parallèles susceptibles de permettre une éducation on labellisée de qualité
connaissent un retard sans précédent. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Le Cameroun n’échappe
pas à cette exigence de recréation et de réinvention de son système d’éducation
et de formation des hommes sans laquelle tous les efforts d’émergence sont
voués à l’échec. C’est dans cette optique que le Salon international de
l’éducation et de la formation (SIEF) , et qui se tiendra du <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/386208381576649/" target="_blank">22 au24 juillet 2015</a> au Campus de l’Université de Yaoundé I (et au Hilton Hôtel),
est organisé pour mobiliser les énergies, fixer les ambitions et les
orientations, inciter à la réflexion et à l’action, etc.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">SIEF 2015 est une plateforme de discussion et d’exposition
de l’éducation et de la formation au Cameroun depuis les États généraux de
l’Éducation de 1993. Ce salon compte porter et repenser l’éducation et la
formation dans une perspective de leur discussion et de leur évaluation dans
l’optique de l’Émergence. SIEF recevra, sous plus de ses 200 stands attendus,
plus de 2000 visiteurs par jour, des experts et des délégations, organismes et
hommes de renom en éducation et en formation du Cameroun, de la sous-région et
à l’international.</span></div>

Le bilan des activités montre que les paysans ont vraiment besoin d'un accompagnement dans la gestion quotidienne de leur exploitation. Mais, les outils expérimentés n'étaient pas adaptés à leur situation. Malgré leur volonté, le faible niveau d'éducation n'a pas facilité la compréhension et l'appropriation de la démarche. C'est pourquoi, il est urgent de repenser le contenu des démarches de conseil à l'exploitation familiale qui se veut adapter au contexte spécifique de chaque producteur. Il est aussi impératif de repenser le profil des conseillers qui doivent être à la auteurs des attentes croissantes des producteurs. Cette expérience bien qu'étant mitigée, a tout de même permis à plus de 67% des producteurs de réviser le mode de gestion de leur exploitation. Dans une vision de modernisation de l'agriculture en Afrique, le conseil agricole requiert plus de moyens.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Les Technologies de l'Information et la Communication occupe de plus en plus un rôle central dans le développement. cette composante désormais partie intégrante de toutes stratégies de développement socio-économique et politique met un accent plus particulier sur l'implication des jeunes. Ainsi les organisations comme le centre de coopération technique agricole et rurale (<a href="http://www.cta.int/" target="_blank">CTA</a>), ont développé un projet spécifique pour promouvoir l'implication des jeunes dans l'utilisation des technologies pour le développement d'un secteur clé à l'économie notamment l'agriculture. c'est à travers le projet <a href="http://www.ardyis.cta.int/" target="_blank">ARDYIS</a> que la plateforme des jeunes pour le développement agricole (<a href="http://www.ypard.net/" target="_blank">YPARD</a>) notamment la coordination du Cameroun (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/YPARD-Cameroon" target="_blank">YPARD-Cameroon</a>) en collaboration avec ses partenaires notamment le Global Youth innovation Network (<a href="http://www.gyin.org/" target="_blank">GYIN</a>) a organisé une session de renforcement des capacités des jeunes en l'utilisation des outils du web2.0 et les médias sociaux pour le développement. sur 25 participants, onze (11) étaient des jeunes femmes.</span></div>

which offers services for CORY activities. The difference with a implementation
partner is that while the relationship between a service provider and CORY is a
business one, a NIP is a member of the CORY implementation team, thus it is
part of the project. It can provide expertise in one or many components of the
project.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; line-height: 150%;">There was a discussion on the level of education
(secondary or equivalent) as selection criteria of rural youths for the CORY
project. We suggested that this should apply only for the selection of the
first youths who will be trained and then train and coach others youths. For
the others, only reading and writing skills in one of the official or popular
local languages should be required. So YPARD as youth’s platform must be
involved in the selection process of the beneficiaries.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; line-height: 150%;">In the annual activity plan submitted to
the participants, Country orientation and selection of young entrepreneurs for
the first round of training are planned simultaneously. We suggested that the
selection of youths for the first training starts after the country orientation
since this orientation aims to fit in the CORY project with the Cameroon
context and one of the outcomes of this activity is adapted selection criteria.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="EN-US">We also nominated YPARD
Cameroon as a national implementing partner. YPARD Cameroon can be a partner
for the implementation of the CORY component 1 and 2 (</span><span lang="EN-GB">Knowledge
management and survey of business development services, Rural entrepreneurial
training, mentorship, and business development services) in Cameroon Centre and
North West regions. The implication of YPARD to these two components can be the
occasion to be assured that Youth voice is really taking into consideration
during the project implementation. At this level can better carry out youth
advocacy during monitory and evaluation of CORY at national level.</span></span></span></div>

des autorités camerounaises, qui placent l’agriculture et le développement
rural en tête de leurs priorités politiques, 11, 9 % de l’enveloppe de la
première phase du Contrat de désendettement pour le développement (C2D), soit
64 M€ (42Mds de FCFA) et 60 de l’enveloppe du deuxième C2D,soit 195 M € (128
Mds de F CFA) ont été affectés aux programmes du secteur agricole et rural. Le Programme

d’une subvention d’un montant de 11,9 M€ (phase 1) et 35M€ soit 23 Mds F CFA
(phase 2) constitue l’un des projets les plus emblématiques des deux C2D
agricoles. A travers le
programme AFOP, le gouvernement camerounais a choisi de répondre, conformément
aux orientations du Document de Stratégie pour la Croissance et l’Emploi (DSCE)
aux défis de (i) l’accroissement de la production agricole et de (ii) la lutte
contre le chômage par l’insertion professionnelle des jeunes

formation adaptée aux besoins et à la demande des acteurs
du développement agricole et rural. Il a pour finalité l’accroissement des
performances économiques de l’agriculture camerounaise, à travers l’amélioration
de la qualification professionnelle des acteurs du développement agricole et
rural. Le projet AFOP s’adresse aux jeunes projetant de devenir agriculteur,
aux agriculteurs en activité et aux jeunes diplômés du secondaire souhaitant
se dédier au secteur agropastoral (formations de niveau BTS). Initiée dans sa
première phase, le développement de formations spécialisées se poursuivra dans
la 2ème phase. Il permettra de densifier le réseau des centres (de 42 à
100) et écoles de formations (de 11 à 25) du MINADER et du MINEPIA.

23 juillet 2014, 38 jeunes ont reçus officiellement parchemins faisant
désormais deux les entrepreneurs agropastoraux qui contribueront sans doute au
développement de l’entrepreneuriat rural au Cameroun. En prélude à cet
évènement, la plateforme des Jeunes professionnels pour le Développement
agricole (<a href="http://www.ypard.net/" target="">YPARD</a>) en collaboration avec l’ETA <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>a organisé un atelier de discussion sur les
opportunités d’insertion pour ces jeunes entrepreneurs. La Mutuelle pour la
promotion de l’Epargne et l’Investissement (MUPECI), et l’entreprise <a href="https://www.facebook.com/phytograines?ref=ts&fref=ts" target="_blank">PhytograinesSARL</a>, respectivement établissement de microfinance et fournisseur d’intrants,

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">YPARD-Cameroun et GYIN-Cameroun sont deux réseaux qui œuvrent pour
une meilleure intégration socio-professionnelle des jeunes dans les
domaines de l’agriculture et l’entrepreneuriat. Conscients des atouts
des TIC pour le développement, ils envisagent renforcer les capacités de
leurs membres respectifs et des jeunes camerounais, leaders des
associations de développement sur le Web 2.0 et les médias sociaux pour
le développement. <br /><br />Le CTA a pour mandat de faciliter l'accès et
la diffusion de l'information dans les domaines de l'agriculture et du
développement rural dans 78 pays d'Afrique, des Caraïbes et du Pacifique
(ACP), incluant le Cameroun. L’organisation de cette formation
s’inscrit dans le cadre des initiatives du CTA pour soutenir les
organisations des pays ACP afin qu’elles puissent mieux accéder à
l’information, mieux la partager et entretenir leurs réseaux de manière
plus efficiente. La présente activité s’opère également en collaboration
avec le projet <a href="http://ardyis.cta.int/fr" target="_blank">ARDYIS</a>.</span></div>

In
Nairobi, in October (27-30), the All Africa Society for Animal
Production (AASAP) in conjunction with the Animal Production Society of
Kenya (APSK) and the Kenyan Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and
Fisheries (MoALF) will hold its biannual conference with the theme <strong>“Africa’s Animal Agriculture: Macro-trends and future opportunities”.</strong></div>
<div style="color: #444444; direction: ltr; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.4em; margin: 0 0 1em;">
The
conference will provide an opportunity for multi-disciplinary players
within and outside the African continent to exchange ideas on key issues
around the five themes and seek ways to address associated challenges
while harnessing the opportunities such challenges present for the
Animal agriculture sector in the continent. In particular, <strong>The Youth and Future of Animal Agriculture </strong>will be a core thematic area of the conference.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; direction: ltr; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.4em; margin: 0 0 1em;">
The
Youth session is set against the back drop that, Sub-Saharan Africa has
the world’s youngest population and is home to over 200 million young
people. Two out of three inhabitants are under the age of 25 years and
44% of its population is below the age of 15. About 70% of the youth
reside in rural areas and those that are employed work primarily in the
agricultural sector, where they account for 65% of the labour force.
Young African men and women are critical to the development of
agriculture and for consolidating efforts to attain food and nutrition
security in the continent. They are the future farmers, policy makers,
leaders, and researchers as well as the future drivers of Africa’s
socio-economic and technological development!</div>
<div style="color: #444444; direction: ltr; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.4em; margin: 0 0 1em;">
The
Food, Agriculture and Natural Resources Policy Analysis Network
(FANRPAN) and Dr Joram Mwacharo of The International Center for
Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA) have partnered to convene <strong>The Youth Session </strong>on
28th October 2014 during the 6th All African Conference on Animal
Agriculture. Through this session we hope to drive the debate away from
questions such as “How can farming be made more attractive to young
people?” toward a broader analysis of the opportunities and challenges
for different categories of young people in animal agriculture. Such an
analysis will take account of changes not only in food production, but
also in processing (value addition) and transformation, marketing,
retail, governance, information technology etc. We also intend to have a
question and answer session involving three to four panelists that will
be followed by an open discussion.</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
In November 2010, UNDP
launched a new regional project, “Private Sector and Inclusive Market
Development for Poverty Reduction in Africa: African Facility for
Inclusive Markets (AFIM)”, to more strongly address private sector
development and engagement issues in Africa in support of accelerated
achievement of the MDGs. AFIM’s particular focus is on the promotion of
Inclusive Market Development (IMD) in Africa through the development and
expansion of regional value chains in job creating sectors such as
agribusiness, tourism, renewable energy, retailing and mining.
Currently, AFIM’s focus of IMD is centred on agribusiness.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
Applications
and concepts shortlisted were referred to the respective project
facilitation platforms (PFPs) for a peer review and selection mechanism.
Under these PFPs, constructive criticism and improvements to the
selected project frameworks were undertaken by respective stakeholders
from the different countries where the projects were to be implemented.
The Project Facilitation Platforms (PFPs) were conceived as fora for the
participatory peer review and selection of specific regional
agricultural value chains that promote private sector driven inclusive
business models that transcend beyond national borders.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>AFIM
moderated three PFPs in the EAC, ECOWAS and COMESA regions where
shortlisted regional projects were deliberated upon and their project
concepts improved upon by respective sector stakeholders.</div>
