How might we address the limited access to climate-smart agricultural technologies and knowledge for large-scale farmers, enabling them to maintain high productivity and adapt their practices amidst the challenges of unpredictable rainfall, extreme weather patterns, and fragmented climate information? With climate change increasingly affecting farming systems, over 60% of African farmers lack access to the resources needed to implement climate-smart practices, putting food security and livelihoods at risk. At YIL, one of our teams is dedicated to empowering farmers through innovative solutions that provide sustainable access to the tools and knowledge they need to thrive in a changing climate.

How might we improve access to mental health services for vulnerable groups and communities across Africa? With mental health disorders affecting over 25% of Africa’s population and only 1 in 10 people receiving the care they need, many individuals, particularly in underserved areas, face significant barriers to care, exacerbating social and economic challenges. At YIL, one of our teams is exploring innovative solutions that can expand mental health access and support for those who need it most.
