Supporting AgroBootcamp is possible!

With AgroBootCamp, we wanted to respond to a major challenge: to train young Africans so that they can develop activities and projects that contribute to creating economic, social and environmental value. Thus, the proposed program is accessible to all audiences (in terms of content) and quality, and the workshops are led by local and international experts recognized in their field.

Because we wanted AgroBootcamp to remain financially accessible to all, the contribution requested from each participant is 38 euros (25,000FCFA), which includes training fees, accommodation and food. While the actual cost of the camp per participant is 230 euros (150,000FCFA)…
