Providing economic opportunity, food security and a safe environment for future generations requires leadership at all levels of society. Winrock has long made it a top priority to equip emerging leaders, particularly women and girls, with the skills, opportunities and networks of support they need to succeed in their communities and beyond.
SAFE (Sasakawa Africa Fund for Extension Education)
For small farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa to achieve food security and sustainable livelihoods, they need the expertise of the continent’s agricultural colleges and universities. By connecting qualified university-educated agricultural extension workers to farmers in rural communities, Winrock’s Sasakawa Africa Fund for Extension Education created a direct pipeline for the best agricultural ideas and practices to make an immediate impact in the field.
