Togo: To date, the Youth Entrepreneurship Promotion Program (PPEJ) has supported around 3,000 entrepreneurs

(Togo First) - The Youth Entrepreneurship Promotion Program (PPEJ) is currently celebrating its 30th anniversary.

The Togolese initiative has since 1994 provided more than XOF500 million in subsidies to about 3,000 young entrepreneurs. It is, according to Victoire Tomegah Dogbe, minister of grassroots development, a pioneer of tools supporting self-employment of youth.

Previously known as the Youth Insertion Fund (FIJ), the PPEJ targets youths aged between 16 to 30 years, with an education or not, coming from one of the CONFEJES member States and who have taken part in a workshop on business creation and entrepreneurship.
