An educational agriculture seminar will be held in Aruba, dedicated especially to youth. This initiative is led by the Curaçaoan farmer, Hendsley Martina. The goal of this event is to educate and transform the participants’ behavior regarding agriculture and producing their own food, in order to combat the problem of poverty and food scarcity in Aruba.
The seminar is intended for youth of all ages. During the sessions, participants will learn about planting and producing their own food. Furthermore, the program promotes core values such as care, love, and responsibility, along with the hope for a better future.
