Access Agriculture aisbl

Access Agriculture enables the co-creation and exchange of agroecological knowledge through quality learning videos in local languages using digital tools and innovative scaling models.

Our activities cover four broad thematic areas: Food Systems; Education; Entrepreneurship and South-South Learning.

Food Systems

Access Agriculture supports the transitioning to healthy, resilient and just food systems by enabling access to quality learning videos that support agroecology, organic and regenerative agriculture. We blend scientific knowledge with indigenous knowledge and put local voices at the centre of a sustainable food future. Our holistic approach covers climate resilience, agrobiodiversity, nutrition, One Health, food processing, ethical marketing and local governance, empowering communities to make informed decisions from farm to fork that benefit the environment, food security and livelihoods.

Donations will be used to support locally and regionally relevant educational content creation to support healthy food production, processing and marketing.

Education

Access Agriculture strengthens primary, secondary, tertiary and non-formal education through smart digital tools, agroecological, and discovery-based learning videos in local languages. We enable intergenerational learning and empower teachers, youth and women. Combined with school gardens, our blended learning approach fosters traditional knowledge, school-community engagement and transformational education. We bridge formal and non-formal systems, nurturing curiosity and life skills essential for a sustainable, inclusive future, and instilling the value of environmental stewardship in the minds of youth.

Financial support will be used to strengthen primary, secondary and tertiary education institutes. We will equip them with solar-powered smart projectors that contain our entire video library off-line, build digital skills of teachers and students, and set up school gardens to enable blended learning. To enable teachers to also use the projector in neighbouring schools, we will also provide them with Buffalo Bicycles.

Entrepreneurship

Access Agriculture empowers rural women and youth who lack access to quality education and decent job opportunities to become digitally-equipped agricultural advisors, called Entrepreneurs for Rural Access. Using solar-powered smart projectors, our entrepreneurs bring knowledge on agroecology and organic food production, processing, marketing, value addition and business skills to vulnerable farming communities to help them adapt to climate challenges and grow their incomes. By making knowledge accessible and practical, we stimulate local economies, foster youth engagement in agriculture and strengthen sustainable agri-food systems with a strong focus on equity and innovation.

Donations will be used to support young, rural people, women in particular, to establish thriving enterprises in the food sector.

South-South Learning

Access Agriculture, a global leader in quality, curated learning videos, empowers thousands of local organisations through digital tools using artificial intelligence for online and offline last mile delivery in a cost-effective way. By offering content in over 100 local and regional languages, Access Agriculture ensures culturally relevant South-South learning, fostering exceptional accessibility and inclusivity. Through our online platform, solar-powered smart projectors, mobile app and a network of mass media houses, we enable knowledge exchange across borders. 

Donations will be used to make quality educational videos available in more local languages to ensure people in remote areas, who are deprived of learning opportunities, have a chance to improve their livelihoods by getting inspiration from fellow farmers from across the Global South.
