AgriSCALE
AgriSCALE is a joint initiative by 9 HEIs (Higher Education Institutions) in Finland, Kenya, Italy, Uganda, and Zambia. We reform agri-entrepreneurship education to equip graduates with working life-relevant and entrepreneurial skills. The new generation will have the competencies to create jobs and improve the sustainability of agriculture.
Students focus on concrete business challenges in multinational teams to analyse new sustainable business opportunities. The partner HEIs develop a network-based learning ecosystem involving the industrial sector and societal partners for continuous development of education after the project.
