ATVET-Context
Key challenges and opportunities for ATVET
What is our response to these challenges and opportunities?
Effective today Tomorrow in the making
under OUR mandate
Next generation
Higher temperatures
Changes in precipitation patterns and extreme weather
 Lower yields for crops and livestock
Food independency decreases in Africa:
Approx. 20% Cereals must be imported
Demand grows rapidly:
In 2035, 700 million Africans (50%) will live in cities
In 2015, 20 million young Africans will enter the
labour market
Today, 47% of Africans live below 1.25USD poverty line
Rising prices of agric. commodities provide incentives
Markets and
competitiveness
Rural employment
and incomes
Food security
Climate change
4
ATVET- Background
• In addressing some of these critical challenges
in Africa agriculture, ATVET was launched in
2012 with the support of GIZ with focus on:
– Knowledge management and survey of approaches,
information and best practices sharing of ATVET in Africa
– Anchoring of ATVET in the AU structures and in the CAADP-
country process promotion programs
– Development and assessment of qualification measures
for farmers, the youth, employed persons and service
providers at national level.
5
How ATVET Responds To Key
Challenges
• Farming systems and value chains that are
attractive for African youth and that create
jobs (added value)
• Prioritize human capital development
through training and access to technology
• Ownership-ATVET that responds to the needs
the continent and specific needs of specific
of countries
6
How ATVET Responds To Key
Challenges
Renewing Agriculture Education
that is part of an integrated
approach to rural transformation
by building the knowledge base
and broad consensus around a
rural transformation agenda

Sustaining CAADP Momentum- Strategic
Thrusts-2
• An education focused on
science, technology and
vocational training
• An R & D and technology
transfer system; innovative
firms and entrepreneurs
• Networks and communities
of practice to co-create
knowledge and learning
Knowledge and learning Support
CAADP should stimulate increased
investment in knowledge

The Demand for ATVET in Africa
Specialization, Diversification and Commercialization of
Agricultural Production according to the regional
agricultural corridors
Enhancement of skills and knowledge is needed to
participate actively in agricultural value chains
Mechanized Farming is emerging
Training of Agricultural Extension Agents(AEA), who
play a significant role in Agricultural Development
Demand of Rural Youth Population for training-the
forgotten majority!
10
Core Problems of ATVET
 Formal ATVET systems normally do not exist
 ATVET is very fragmented and not integrated into an
overall national TVET system
 Low importance is given by the governments and lack
of sufficient financing
 Limited enrollment capacity of the training institutions
 Very few linkages between public and private efforts
 Poor training quality, inefficient delivery and insufficient
training in practical skills
 Poor infrastructure and machinery
 Teachers /trainers lack of technology knowledge and
practical skills; pedagogy/didactics

methodologies and value chain targets.
An interventions of ATVET resulting in all or at least one of the following outputs
where beneficiaries (trainees) Become Entrepreneurs, Employers and or

Mid Term Initiatives
Review and Modernize existing training systems
Linkages between public and private initiatives
Experiences in linking primary and secondary education
(e.g.: Kenya Youth program) with agricultural skill training
in rural/urban areas and among farm communities
Awareness creation to motivate National decision-makers
Conduct regional surveys and baseline studies on the
situation of ATVET
Up scaling of good practices
16
Long-Term Initiatives
• As we seek to improve agricultural education
within CAADP we wish to lead by developing a
system of Agricultural vocational and technical
education:
– That is part of an integrated approach to rural
transformation building on the knowledge base
and broad consensus around a rural
transformation agenda
– That is linked to other Initiatives on Agricultural
Education on the Continent including TEAM-Africa
17
Long-Term Initiatives-Expected
Outcomes
1. Existence of national policies which
stimulate and support increased capacity
and performance of agriculture education
2. A knowledge platform concerning
models/good practice for Agricultural
Education Systems (AES)-reform, including
basic, secondary, tertiary education and
R&D in place
18
Long-Term Initiatives
3. The private sector is participating in the
development of national AESs to assure labour-
market conformity
4. Mechanisms to organize a regular communication
between theory and practice and vise-versa over
the four levels (continental – regional – national –
micro) are put in place, to assure e.g. that research
results reach the farmer or that farmer’s practical
needs are up-taken by R&D.
