About the Nkabom Collaborative

Driven to Transforming Agri-Food and Nutrition Systems

The Nkabom Collaborative is a multi-stakeholder initiative transforming food and nutrition systems through youth leadership, innovation, and partnership. 

Led by seven higher education institutions, one not-for-profit organization, and the Mastercard Foundation, Nkabom is rooted for impact in Ghana. The Mastercard Foundation’s Young Africa Works strategy has been instrumental in shaping the Collaborative’s vision and activities, reinforcing our shared goal of enabling young people, especially women and marginalized groups, to access dignified and fulfilling work.
