Youth Empowerment

YWAFT embraces ICT and promotes it adoption and implementations.

We strongly acknowledge how Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) have already taken their permanent place in the socio-economic transformation of communities by speeding up the dissemination of information, facilitation of research and innovation much needed to address common community problems such as limited access to information about the markets for farmers’ produce, limited entrepreneurship knowledge especially among the youth, and limited access to meteorological information. ICTs have also simplified ways in which communities communicate. By just posting an idea or issue on social media, views and opinions are attracted that could be possible solutions to the issue at hand.
