Netherlands Food Partnership (NFP) with support from IKEA Foundation is currently implementing ''Youth in Agroecology & Business Learning Track Africa (YALTA)'' -  a three-year 2020-2022 initiative aimed at supporting young agripreneurs to apply agroecological principles and to co-create networks around them, in view of contributing to the increased sustainability of food systems and youth employment.

YALTA initiative is hosting and implementing with the support of national and local partners Youth and Agroecology National Caravan 2021 in Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. The overall objective of the caravan is to promote practical knowledge, skills, and approaches through peer-to-peer exchanges and learning from youth-led agribusiness enterprises. During the Caravan the youth will be coached to develop agroecological business models and be connected to opportunities through a business accelerator, among other interventions.

The caravan targets young innovators, marketers, youth leaders between 18-35 years old ready to be change-makers in developing sustainable and scalable agroecological business models.
