Program overview
DUHAMIC-ADRI in partnership with Care International Rwanda and its implementing partners are implementing the five years’ program Supporting and Enhancing Resilient and Viable Employment Opportunities (SERVE) Project. This program is funded by MasterCard Foundation through the partnership of Care International and will focus on to build a resilient, sustainable, gender equitable, and inclusive entrepreneurial environment that increases dignified and fulfilling work opportunities for predominantly female youth in agricultural value chains in 10 districts across Rwanda namely RULINDO, GAKENKE, NYABIHU, RUBAVU, RWAMAGANA, KAYONZA, KIREHE, NGOMA, NYAMAGABE and HUYE.
The SERVE Project aim to build a resilient, sustainable, gender equitable and inclusive entrepreneurial environment that increases dignified and fulfilling work opportunities for young people aged between 18 and 35 years and 70% of them must be women in agricultural value chains across Rwanda.
Justification of needs
SERVE project has made significant strides in youth empowerment through agricultural value chain development including but not limited to Good Agriculture practices and awareness raising on environment protection and disease and pests’ control. However, the recent pests, diseases, and climate-related disasters have put these gains at risk. Based on the findings of the conducted needs assessment, it is evident that there is an increasing risk of long-term disengagement from farming activities and a potential reversal of progress made within youth-led MSEs who experienced losses due to pest, disease, and disaster outbreaks. Therefore, it is essential to support and assist the youth farmers by providing the necessary agricultural inputs and materials to aid in their recovery and ensure the continuity of their agricultural businesses.
In this regard, DUHAMIC-ADRI, in collaboration with CARE Rwanda and through the Crisis Modifier budget, is preparing to procure and distribute essential agricultural inputs and materials tailored to the specific needs of the affected farmers ensuring that they can recover, adapt, and thrive and the support take reference to needs assessment conducted to assess the magnitude and potential impacts of the disasters/disease outbreak in collaboration with local authorities as well as farmers. This support will not only restore productivity but also strengthen resilience and ensure long-term impact on the project.
