Abstract
This note provides guidance on how to
assist people from surrounding areas in gaining formal
employment at the investment. Formal employment is a major
expected benefit of agricultural investments. Yet investors
experience difficulties in employing people from surrounding
areasdue to gaps in skills and education. The inclusion of
local people in the formal workforce is a key element of
partnerships between local communities and investors. This
inclusion can be facilitated by dedicated training programs
and strategies to improve integration.
