Creation of a Training and Incubation Center for Agricultural Professions
Afrika Mandela Ranch has as its primary goal the promotion of local agricultural entrepreneurship and the support of start-ups by young women and men who wish to build their future in their home region. This enables them to contribute to their family’s needs without being forced to migrate, while also participating in the development of their country.
As part of the School of Arts, Crafts, and Sports, the creation of a Training and Incubation Center for Agricultural Professions is planned, with a focus on start-ups to make the initiative more accessible and understandable even to beginners.
-
Professional Training
The project includes offering certified professional training in areas such as cultivation, processing and composting, livestock farming, and aquaculture.
-
Creation of Microenterprises
The Center will also support students in creating their own agricultural microenterprises by providing them with a plot of land to implement their projects.
-
Advanced Training and Research
Additionally, the Center will offer advanced training for agricultural professionals, helping them meet the sector’s evolving demands for competitiveness, innovation, and market dynamics. This new Training Center aims to become a hub for research, initiatives, and experiments to propose alternative and innovative solutions.
This institution will be one of the pillars of the TERRA Cooperative, ensuring training and employment opportunities for anyone wishing to engage in the production, processing, or marketing of agricultural products.
