I am Michael Carthyn, An innovative, creative and contagious budding Social Entrepreneur who has used his great passion for humanity and the human race to influence himself and many of his contemporaries into entrepreneurship.
Being a passionate and contagious budding Social Entrepreneur, my biggest dream from childhood is to become a philanthropist by helping the financially challenged and less privileged in the society to solve their financial problems.
I grew up, and became of reality that I may not be financially buoyant enough at this point in time to assist the large number of people I would have loved to assist financially due to my humble beginning. Then I remembered an adage that goes thus "if you want to move mountains you must start moving stones". I then thought of win-win ways I could use to save the human race from the current and future fierce fiasco or catastrophe, and make this world a better place.
The initiative am currently working with is on food insecurity.
By food insecurity, I mean a state in which consistent access to adequate food is limited by lack of money or other resources at times during the year.
My model of solving the problem of food insecurity is a disruptive one, which seek to provide food in abundance to the teeming population of the world. It’s an idea that will satisfy the food crave of many of the world's populace, and also cause a tremendous change in the world market. I was able to identify the problem of food insecurity in West Africa.
Using Nigeria as a case study, Nigeria is a country with over 185,000,000 populations, with about 35% of the population unemployed due to lack of jobs. Another 35% are gainfully employed in the public, private and self-employment scheme. The remaining 30% of the populace are in the dependent category. That is, they are either children, or aged ones who cannot contribute positively to the country's current GDP.
Being a creative budding Social Entrepreneur, I intend mitigating the problem of food insecurity by intensively investing in in large scale crop farming and livestock farming, with the inclusion of other value chains.
The crop farming chain will involve the production of major food crops and cash crops in mass production rate, that the excess shall be exported. Such as cassava, yam, maize, beans, cotton, rubber, timber, cocoa, and palm trees for oil palm. Etc.
The livestock production will consist the rearing and processing of fishery, cattle, piggery, and birds. Etc. The entire production will be 100% efficient with all by-products of the whole production process being utilized to the maximum level.
By so doing, I will be able to efficiently and effectively mitigate the problem of food insecurity, unemployment, insolvency, and poverty in the society, as my disruptive solution to food insecurity will undoubtedly provide employment opportunity to millions of the populace, and also have an exponential effect on the world's entrepreneurship.
