Are you a land restoration entrepreneur? Do you know one?
In 2018, World Resources Institute (WRI) and Fledge launched the Land Accelerator, the world’s first training and mentorship program targeted specifically toward businesses that restore degraded forests, farmland, and pasture.
Women-led and youth-led companies, which may benefit from additional funding opportunities, are highly encouraged to apply!
In partnership with AFR100, World Resources Institute is excited to announce that the application cycle for the 2021 Land Accelerator Africa is open through March 31!
For the 2021 Africa cohort, we are embracing an exciting new approach.
From our applicants, the team will select Africa’s Top 100 Restoration Entrepreneurs, all of whom will benefit from extensive online training and networking for three months.
A panel of experts will then select the Top 10, who will benefit from one-on-one technical support, pitch their businesses to an online room of investors, and receive a $5,000 innovation grant.
