The University of Pavia (UNIPV) plays a key academic and technical role in Emp.L.O.I.

Working alongside Vento di Terra ONLUS and the University of Dschang (Cameroon), UNIPV coordinates activities focused on economic and occupational development in the agri-food sector in the West Region — a vital area for Cameroon’s sustainable growth.

The University of Dschang

UNIPV contributes by:

  • Conducting research and market analysis;
  • Providing technical assistance and training for local entrepreneurs and cooperatives;
  • Promoting innovation in agri-food production and value-chain management;
  • Supporting inclusive entrepreneurship with attention to gender equality and disability inclusion;
  • Facilitating knowledge exchange between Italian and Cameroonian academic and business ecosystems.

By combining academic excellence with field engagement, the University of Pavia helps translate research into tangible solutions — empowering individuals, strengthening enterprises, and advancing the shared goal of “decent work for all.”
