The International Mobility – Pilot Trainings for Young Farmers activity is an integral component of the REVIVER project (Regenerative Agriculture for Vocational Education EU + Africa), aimed at enhancing vocational education and training (VET) in regenerative agriculture. This training brought together a diverse group of participants from Europe and Sub-Saharan Africa, specifically from Croatia, Germany, Estonia, Ghana, Tanzania, and Kenya, to participate in a comprehensive 5-day educational program held in Nairobi, Kenya.
The purpose of the training was to provide participants with foundational knowledge and practical skills in regenerative and climate-resilient farming practices. By engaging VET providers and young farmers from multiple regions, the program emphasized the importance of sustainable agricultural practices, equipping attendees with tools to improve soil health, manage water resources, and apply climate-smart farming techniques in their local contexts.
Held at the Qaribu Inn Hotel in Nairobi from January 25th to January 29th, 2025, the pilot training was designed to test and refine the vocational curriculum tailored for aspiring regenerative farmers. This curriculum was developed with a focus on both theoretical understanding and hands-on applications, ensuring that participants could integrate these practices into their teaching and farming activities effectively.
