背景信息
The programme “Emergency Assistance for Women and Youth in Egypt, Iraq, and Lebanon: Promoting Food, Economic Security, and Peace through Entrepreneurship” aims to empower young people in the three countries to address food insecurity and stimulate local employment. It does so by equipping them with entrepreneurial, technical, and innovation skills. The initiative is structured in three progressive phases: (1) a self-paced online training on entrepreneurship and food security, (2) advanced planning and project development, and (3) an intensive bootcamp for selected finalists to launch practical solutions. The programme is designed to reach 120,000 beneficiaries through direct training, peer exchanges, and partnerships. It emphasizes climate-smart agribusiness practices, public–private collaboration, and sustainable livelihoods to strengthen food systems and foster inclusive economic growth.
