African Journal
of Farm Child and Youth Development is the annual publication of
the Research and Development Network of the Children-In-Agriculture
Programme (CIAP) in Africa. CIAP is an integrated human development
and agricultural development initiative aimed at building farming
knowledge, skills experience and dignity of honest labour into the
socialization and education process right from childhood. The overall
goal is to institutionalise CIAP into a programme for promoting
continuity of farming and sustainable agricultural productivity
as panacea for food self-sufficiency, nutritional well-being of
people, modernization and industrialization of agriculture, popularisation
of farming as income earning and profitable ventures for rural transformation,
quality of life enhancement, and overall development of the economy.
