Dear participant,

The Women and Rural Youth Programme of the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) is currently gathering the views and experiences of young people in rural areas across the Americas regarding their participation, leadership and opportunities within agri-food systems.

This survey aims to gain a better understanding of how young people in rural areas participate in their local communities, what skills and support they need, what barriers they face, and what conditions would help to strengthen their leadership skills within agri-food systems.

The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary. The information will be used only for technical purposes and will be analyzed in aggregate form, ensuring your anonymity.

If you have any questions or concerns about this survey, please contact Diana Ruiz Bartra or Victoria Diaz Ubillus at diana.ruiz.consultora@iica.int
