We aim to transform the horticulture sector in Ghana by training young motivated farming enthusiasts on the necessary climate-smart practices and entrepreneurial skills to become successful in horticulture. To do this, the ACHI project brings together the 5 agricultural colleges in Ghana, the Holland Green Tech Ghana team and their broad network of lead farmers and industry players all over Ghana.
Since the beginning of 2020, the TU Delft together with Holland Greentech Ghana (HGT), has worked extensively with the Kwadaso Agricultural College (KAC) in Kumasi to build capacity and improve the practical education in the field of horticulture and introduce entrepreneurial skills. By introducing practical and climate smart horticulture skills and assignments together with the Holland Greentech Ghana team of agronomists and by offering education on “Farming as a Business” with support of the Delft Centre for Entrepreneurship, we realized a concrete and sustainable transformation at KAC that is now fully embedded at the college. This was known as the Archipelago program In the follow-up ACHI project, we build on the success of the Archipelago project and scale it to the other agricultural colleges in Ghana and to the other regions, targeting a larger group of young people and developing an innovation ecosystem that will benefit all Dutch and Ghanaian actors that are active in the horticulture sector.
