Clement Taonani’s thriving new farm is a networking point for youngsters looking for work

An agripreneur in Malawi shows his business model and agricultural venture Nathawi Farms, its circular economy as well as ecologically beneficial practices and products like biochar.

Due to a lack of employment prospects, 30-year-old Clement Taonani set up Nathawi Farms in 2020. It became a thriving agricultural business and an important contact point for young people seeking employment in his region.

A start-up acceleration programme organized by GIZ, EYA! ATVET supported him on his way: “I am now self-employed and have also created jobs for other young people”
