Entrepreneurship: Rooted Wisdom Africa invests in families, students, farmers, and community members through entrepreneurial training programs to support income generation and self-sufficiency. These programs support disadvantaged populations as they learn valuable business skills and vocational training in an effort to increase their income, food security, and scalable businesses. The Women's Enterprise Training Program (WETP) equips women and girls living in extreme poverty with the skills necessary to secure independent and sustainable employment. In 2023, WETP supported over 165 Ugandan women and out-of-school youth. The Farmer Field School (FFS) supports current or aspiring farmers by teaching hands-on environmentally sustainable agricultural techniques using a cost-effective approach. In 2023, 154 farmers were supported through the program. The Master Farmer Program (MFP) was launched in 2023. The MFP aims to support rural community members, particularly women, in enhancing their agricultural skills and applying agricultural techniques and business practices. Unlike RWA's Farmer Field School, which requires substantial time commitments, the MFP was designed to accommodate part-time or novice farmers by offering a more flexible schedule.
