Three workshops were conducted from
19 June 2019 up to 21 June 2019 to assess the capacity needs of the youth
sectors in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Viet Nam to enable them participate in
and benefit from responsible agricultural investments in their respective
countries.
The first workshop was aimed at
identifying existing institutions and coordinating mechanisms that are involved
in the policy-making processes related to agricultural investments in each
country; discuss the roles that these entities, organizations and coordination
mechanisms currently play, and which additional roles they should ideally have;
and, assess the participation of the youth in the said policy-making processes.
The second workshop looked into
strengthening and or creating policies, laws, strategies and incentives related
to agricultural investments in each country, and assessed the need to
strengthen or develop new such laws, policies, etc. to further involve the
youth.
The third workshop assessed existing
organizations in each country to determine if they were providing the services
needed by the youth to be able to participate and benefit from agricultural
investments.
The results of the Capacity
Assessment Workshops were discussed by Mr. Marlene Ramirez in the next section
of this report.
