FILMA to deliver 80,000 youth in work by 2028

The Financial Inclusion for Last Mile Actors (FILMA) Program, a groundbreaking initiative under the Mastercard Foundation’s Young Africa Work Strategy recently reinforced its commitment to empowering Ghana’s youth by partnering with Agrihouse Foundation for their 8th Agricultural Students’ Career Guidance and Mentorship Dialogue Bootcamp (AG-STUD).

This collaboration underscores FILMA’s dedication to fostering a new generation of economically empowered young Ghanaians, a core tenet of its ambitious goal to create 80,000 dignified and fulfilling work opportunities.

FILMA’s primary objective is to empower an estimated 80,000 young Ghanaians with sustainable work opportunities along the agricultural value chain by 2028.

A remarkable 70% of these opportunities are specifically reserved for young women, with a further 5% dedicated to persons with disabilities, highlighting a deep commitment to inclusivity and equity.
