Kosmos Innovation Center Partners AGRA to Empower 130 Young Women and Persons with Disability Under the YEFFA Program

Kosmos Innovation Center (KIC), in partnership with the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), has successfully empowered 130 women and Persons with Disability (PWDs) aged 15 to 35 under the Youth Entrepreneurship for the Future of Food and Agriculture (YEFFA) Program.

The initiative is aimed at promoting inclusive job creation and expanding employment opportunities for disadvantaged and marginalized groups within Ghana’s agribusiness sector.

As part of the program implementation, Marvmay Limited, a beneficiary business under the KIC–AGRA partnership, was contracted to deliver hands-on skills training in Soya Kebab, Soya Milk, Soya Ice Cream, Soya Ceralac and Tombrown preparations to the participants. This strategic engagement strengthened the project ecosystem by directly involving KIC-AGRA supported businesses in building the capacities of new entrepreneurs.

The training equipped participants with practical, market-driven skills to enhance their employability and entrepreneurial potential within the food and agriculture value chain. Through this intervention, KIC continues to demonstrate its commitment to inclusive economic growth, youth empowerment, and sustainable livelihoods.

This initiative was made possible through the collaboration between KIC and AGRA, with funding support from the Mastercard Foundation under the Youth Entrepreneurship for the Future of Food and Agriculture (YEFFA) Program.
