Explore these Feed the Future and Agency-wide resources to empower youth in agricultural development. Resources help development practitioners identify strategies to foster youth-inclusive agri-food systems. Engaging and empowering youth as key stakeholders in FTF programming is critical to achieving the GFSS objectives of "inclusive and sustainable agriculture-led economic growth, strengthened resilience among people and systems, and a well-nourished population."
