African Food Changemakers (AFC) 2024 BRACE Capacity Development Program
Published: 23 May 2024
An intensive capacity development program supporting agripreneurs (SMEs) in the agribusiness landscape to be aware of how their businesses are affected by climate change and to enable them develop strategies to adapt and mitigate the impact of climate change through climate-smart practices adoption and tapping into the climate financing opportunities. BRACE leverages a hybrid learning experience to engage agripreneurs through training, peer learning, interactive sessions, and practical applications.
Through the BRACE program, we empower African agricultural entrepreneurs for sustainable growth and enhanced climate resilience. Our mission extends beyond skill-building to providing exposure to diverse opportunities within the agricultural ecosystem. We aspire to foster resilience in entrepreneurs, enabling them to contribute to sustainable practices and the long-term growth of the agricultural landscape across Africa. Through BRACE, we envision a future where agricultural entrepreneurs thrive, adapting to climate challenges and driving positive change in the industry.
