Becoming a young farmer in Rwanda: aspirations, pathways and challenges: DE - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book investigates young people's aspirations and pathways towards becoming farmers and the social structures and institutional challenges on their pathways to becoming successful farmers and ensuring their future in agriculture in Rwanda. Die Studie, die sich auf den Bezirk Bugesera konzentriert, untersucht speziell, wie sich der Zugang zu landwirtschaftlichen Ressourcen wie Land auf den Erfolg junger Menschen in der Landwirtschaft als Berufs- und Beschäftigungsquelle auswirkt. Using semi-structured online interviews with 12 young people who are currently practicing farming, their farming journey and experiences were deeply studied to understand how their aspirations and pathways to becoming farmers have been shaped. Moreover, how young people use their agency to overcome the constraints they face are also investigated in this study. Young people's aspirations to become farmers are shaped through toxic logic of aspiration: unquestioned mainstream propaganda transmitted through school, media, and policy and habitus logic of aspiring, constructed by daily life conditions for a given individual's position in a certain social structure.
