Addressing the needs of rural youth is gathering attention with international development agencies, donors and private companies supporting new initiatives by governmental and non-governmental organizations in many parts of the world and in Africa in particular. Issues surrounding rural youths such as limited access to educational services, dependency on mainly unpaid labour in family farms and working in the informal sector as well as the considerable impact of migration on their livelihoods - especially affecting young women- have been widely recognized as significant. There is overall agreement that if youth issues are not addressed high rates of youth unemployment and under-employment will persist and overall development in African countries could be negatively affected.
In this context and in line with its 2011 – 2015 Strategic Framework, The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), in partnership with PROCASUR Africa, organized an eight day learning route on Innovative ideas and approaches to integrate Rural Youth in Agriculture. The progress in Kenya between the 11th to the 18th of August 2014.
The aim of this Learning Route was to contribute to lesson-sharing and learning at country and regional level in order to build technical capacities within IFAD´s operations and partners in the ESA region on innovative strategies and approaches to engage rural youth in agriculture, increase employment and reduce poverty.
One of the host case studies of this learning route was the Junior Farmer Field and Life Schools, (JFFLS) FAO: The JFFLS is as a holistic, participatory training strategy, promoting acquisition of technical and agricultural knowledge and life skills, involving different community stakeholders who live in vulnerable situations. It is a participatory training process based on practical and field learning, involving a group of some 25 - 30 children and youth who meet often, supported by a facilitator, sharing knowledge from experience gained on a demonstration plot located on one side of the school. JFFLS participants are expected to replicate their lessons learned back at home, encouraging food production and even enhancing their own families’ income by selling some of their produce.
This presentation covers the USAID Office of Maternal, Child Health and Nutrition; the Office of Health Systems; Office of Population and Reproductive Health; and the Center for Innovation and Impact.

Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.

Editor's Notes
# In Madagascar, the partnership was done through the GAIN( ….), non formal mechanisms that allowed exchange, standardization, development of guidelines and strategies, and finally development of the National Nutrition Policy # In Ethiopia, similarly, a non formal group meet quarterly to exchange experience, standardize approach, particularly the ENA approach and establish Guidelines # In both country, Profiles evaluated the consequences of malnutrition, was used as a key tool for advocacy , used as “ Why Nutrition Matters?” in Ethiopia… # The roll-out was faster in Ethiopia with (…..), as we know better how to used Profiles at each event and don’t miss opportunity for an advocacy event. #
The first strategy is partnerships. LINKAGES partnered with diverse organizations and institutions to promote optimal infant and young child feeding around the world. These included NGOs and PVOs, international organizations, bilateral organizations, ministries, radio and television networks, print media, and academic institutions. This partnering enabled: Coordinated strategies Collaboration in designing workplans Consensus on strategies at national level Leveraging of human and financial resources Expanded coverage Opportunities for scale up at national level Feedback from multiple partners
Regarding the in-service training, manuals from Madagascar were adapted to Ethiopia and for both countries were Customized to target groups and needs…(….) They are (…) Lots of practices, with mothers and babies as much as possible… and outside the classroom # Enrollment of large partners was an important startegic element to go to scale such as USAID bilateral (up to 6 millions in Madagascar and 15 millions in Ethiopia), also the work bank GMP food security project, UNICEF and large NGOs) And estimated of > 4000 health professional were trained in Madagascar, with Various training courses, and more than 5000 in Ethiopia, where many partners Carried out cascade training in their target areas #
Here some example of training courses in Madagascar
Here some example from Ethiopia
Here in Madagascar, where various BCC materials were developed with the same messages and the same pictures. Job Aids were developed and distributed to health workers In addition, Poopy, the number 1 pop singer in Madagascar became in 2000 the BF then the ENA Ambassador with 7 songs on BF, CF, WN, NSC, etc… Poopy sings during concert, make CDs, does press conferences… songs were also distributed to transporters #
