Africa’s prosperity also lies in creating decent jobs for rural youth 
22 February 2018, Khartoum--- The 30th FAO Regional Conference for Africa is primarily dedicated to the theme of creating decent and attractive employment in the continent, the world’s “youngest” in terms of the average age of its population.

Estimates suggest that up to 12 million new jobs will have to be created every year to absorb new labour market entrants over the next 20 years. Today some 54 percent of Africa’s working force relies on the agricultural sector for livelihoods, income and employment, especially in family farming. With more people moving to cities, demand on urban food markets will grow, which in turn can generate job opportunities in all agriculture-related activities.
