Sylvia Nwabuko is an Urban and Regional Planning doctoral student at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. She is also the Project Director of Daisyl-Emma Enterprises, an agro-based outfit dedicated to producing, processing, and marketing farm produce and training in entrepreneurship. She has a passion for community development and is involved in volunteering and sensitisation of young women to venture into agriculture. She believes supporting and empowering young women to go into agribusiness would significantly reduce hunger. Having worked with small-scale farmers, she understands the challenges of small-scale farming. During her mandatory National Youth Service Programme in 2015, she participated in the “Operation Eradicate Hunger” project, where small-scale female farmers were encouraged to grow food for themselves to reduce hunger. Sylvia has been involved with Catering Craft Practices (Nigeria Institute of Hospitality and Tourism, 2015) and the Agribusiness Capacity Building Program (Davichi Empowerment Initiative, Nigeria National Petroleum Company, Total Upstream Nigeria Limited, 2018), and providing safe and affordable housing. In Kampala, she participated in the Summer School on ‘landscape ecology for improved sustainability and societal equity of social-ecological systems in Sub-Sahara Africa’. Sylvia believes integrating and promoting community development, entrepreneurship, and gender equity will foster sustainable growth and development.
