UNYFA

UNYFA UNYFA is an initiative of Uganda National Farmers’ Federation started in 2015 being an umbrella organization for all agro-based youths in Uganda.

UNYFA is driven by the desire to have a holistically transformed youth in agriculture for a sustainable economy: its target group is of youth between 12 to 39 years of age who are rural and/or urban agro-based and young farmers in and out of school/ Institutions. Due to diverse interests of farmer groups/farmers’ based organizations, young farmers need specific training; UNYFA provides platforms for these youths where they can express and acquire tailor-made training.

As a young farmer and youth advocate, I believe in using my voice and my work in agriculture to create opportunities, inspire other young people, and contribute to the development of my community.

To my fellow youth, don’t let your circumstances limit you. Start with what you have, believe in yourself, keep learning, speak up for what matters, and be part of the change you want to see. Our journeys may be different, but our dreams can bring us together.

As a young farmer my encouragement to every youth celebrating the International Youth Day is, “Do not underestimate what you can create with the resources and knowledge you have today. Start where you are, keep learning, keep networking while embracing technology and believe in the value of your contribution. Our different journeys can still lead us toward a common, better future.”

To me, “Different Contexts, Common Aspirations” means that while our realities may differ, our hopes are the same. A better Uganda with opportunities, equality, decent work and a voice in decisions that affect us. Let us stay united, speak up and turn our aspirations into action.
Happy International Youth Day!

Youth are not merely the leaders of tomorrow, we are the changemakers of today. Let us turn our different contexts into strength, transform our challenges into opportunities, and turn our aspirations into meaningful action.

My message to every youth is to believe in yourself, keep learning, stay focused, and never give up on your dreams. Your circumstances may be different, but your potential is limitless.

Happy International Youth Day!
