Summary:

This planning tool seeks to propel and sustain investments by young agri-entrepreneurs at national or regional levels. It analyses current trends and the conditions young investors face while offering practical solutions to overcome the challenges identified. It also fosters decision-makers' ownership of the results through a participatory and inclusive process.The achievement of the first two Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - end poverty and hunger by 2030 - requires substantial investments. To fully contribute to sustainable development, both public and private investments should be perfectly aligned with the SDGs. In this context, empowering youth to invest in their own farms and businesses along agricultural value chains should be a key component of sustainable development-centered investment promotion and mobilization strategy.The strategic planning process consists of four steps: identify priority actions; analyse context and existing services as well as institutional, policy, legal, and incentive frameworks; create a common vision of the optimal situation; and develop practical solutions to enhance sustainable and responsible investments by young agri-entrepreneurs
