“Agriculture Calling: Prospects for OFWs

July 24 2020

Second slide

The role of agriculture in providing food on the table and the broader issue of food security have been highlighted during this pandemic. For OFWs who have been repatriated and are looking for alternatives to overseas employment, what opportunities are there in the agriculture sector? For OFWs who continue to work abroad, what are the prospects for investing in agriculture? An OFW family which invested in agriculture and a young agri-preneur shared their experiences, plus information on training programs, e-learning, access to capital, and insights from research and advocacy were featured in the webinar, “Agriculture calling: Prospects for OFWs.” The webinar was livestreamed on July 24, 2020.
