"Empowering Small-Scale Farmers with a Gender-Inclusive Approach through FCUs''
At the heart of our mission lies the empowerment of small-scale farmers, including an unwavering commitment to gender justice. Farmers' Cooperative Unions (FCUs) are our strategic approach to harnessing their potential while ensuring gender inclusivity. We firmly believe that by uniting the efforts, knowledge, and resources of men and women farmers, these cooperatives can unlock unprecedented growth and equity. FAVOA's dedication has already given rise to three FCUs strategically positioned across Malawi's regions - Central, Southern, and Northern. Covering Agricultural Zones of Influence (ZOI) in line with 2013 FTF Baseline report for central and southern regions, these FCUs serve as epicenters of progress, ensuring that FAVOA's transformative initiatives directly impact the lives of all farmers. With FCUs as our cornerstone, we're nurturing a future where cooperatives strength drives sustainable change in agriculture, breaking gender barriers, and cultivating prosperity for all."
"Elevating Youth Voices and Building Agricultural Futures with FAYONA''
Youth empowerment is at the core of our vision, and Farmers Voice Africa's Youth Networks in Agriculture (FAYONA) is our dynamic platform for realizing this transformative goal. Recognizing the vital role that young people play in shaping the future of agriculture, FAYONA stands as a beacon of hope and opportunity. By harnessing the energy, creativity, and innovation of youth, we are sowing the seeds of agricultural revolution. FAYONA equips aspiring agricultural leaders with knowledge, skills, and connections, nurturing a community of change-makers who are driving sustainable progress. Our commitment to youth is exemplified through initiatives such as the FAVOA Students Satellite program (FASS), Graduands loans (GFLB), internships, and exposure to role models. With FAYONA, we're cultivating a new generation of agri-champions who will pave the way for a thriving and inclusive agricultural landscape, where every voice is heard, and every youth is empowered to create lasting impact."
