Kataza — partner-supported youth enterprise finance

Explore the Kataza programme and check which approved institution, activity and applicant conditions apply to you.

Understand this category

Explore the current Kataza programme and check whether you can apply through a participating institution. The programme supports eligible youth enterprises under its published scope and financing arrangements. Your age, activity, business readiness and the participating provider’s requirements matter. Ask for the current programme window, funding availability and complete terms before preparing an application. Programme eligibility is not a credit approval, and terms published for one institution do not automatically apply elsewhere.

Who it may suit

Eligible youth-led enterprises under the current programme conditions; exact limits and qualifying ownership require verification.

Practical uses

Approved agriculture, livestock, tourism and hospitality activities, as confirmed for the applicable funding window.

How to proceed

Read programme information; choose a verified participating institution; check eligibility and current funding; apply through the approved route; undergo credit assessment.

What to prepare

Programme eligibility evidence; business plan/cash flow; ownership/age evidence where required; participating-institution application documents.

Questions and answers

Is Kataza available in every district?

A rollout announcement does not replace the current participating-institution and funding register.

Is eligibility the same as approval?

No. Programme eligibility and the lender’s decision remain separate.
