The e-MOVE Initiative, organised by MOVE-ComCashew, is inviting applications from young and emerging agripreneurs across member states of the Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS).
The programme aims to help participants transform knowledge gained from free e-learning courses into investment-ready, climate-smart agribusiness ventures. While open to several value chains—including cashew, cocoa, maize and livestock—the initiative places particular emphasis on innovative ideas within the cashew sector.
Focus areas
e-MOVE is designed to support viable, youth-led micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the cashew industry, positioning them to attract investment and scale sustainably.
The programme encourages low-emission and climate-resilient agricultural practices, aligning with broader efforts to build sustainable food systems and improve rural livelihoods across OACPS regions.

The call targets young agripreneurs passionate about sustainable agriculture within OACPS member states. Applicants must:
-
Be 18 years or older.
