As the world’s population grows, there is a high demand for food with less land and resources to quench this demand. Other factors such as climate change, soil degradation, water scarcity, and pesticide resistance add to the burden. Addressing such problems will require significant changes in agricultural practices, policies, consumer behavior, and a shift towards more sustainable and equitable food systems.
In a world where the sky is the limit, it’s frustrating to think there are still invisible barriers holding certain groups back from reaching their potential. There has always been an invisible barrier preventing a certain group of people, particularly minorities and women in society from reaching high-level positions in various fields.
As the work environment changes to fit in the context of 21st century, employers are also shifting focus to a more talent-based workforce. The workplace is more demanding of competency skills and capacities for the delivery of context-specific tasks. It also requires that the current and future workforce acquire the necessary complementary skills to fit in the work place.
CoELIB builds on existing capacity and fosters innovation and agri-business development.
