SOCIEUX+ supports the promotion of green jobs among young people in Togo
Green jobs have become a reality everywhere, amid the rising demand for healthy food, and the market for healthy products from organic farms is growing as strongly in Togo as it is in Europe. The country has become a leading exporter of organic pineapple, ginger, and soy in West Africa, and the government is pushing for all farms to convert to 100% organic by 2030. Today, agro-entrepreneurs are taking the lead.
