Indigenous Knowledge and CSA tech: Opportunities for Startups and Youth Employment in Ghana
This research paper examines the opportunities and challenges of integrating Indigenous Knowledge (IK) with Climate-Smart Agricultural (CSA) technology to address climate change and youth unemployment in Ghana. While CSA startups like Farmerline and AgroCenta are creating new digital and technical roles for youth, the document highlights a significant gap in technology adoption among young farmers and a lack of cohesive national policies that formally integrate IK into modern agricultural strategies. The authors recommend establishing multi-stakeholder platforms, creating a national digital IK repository, and providing targeted financial incentives for startups that blend traditional practices with climate-resilient technology.
