About  [Edit]

The World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) –founded in 1978- has invigorated the ancient practice of growing trees on farms, using innovative science for development to transform lives and landscapes. Our research focuses on four global themes: Land and people, Environmental services, Strengthening institutions and Trees & Markets.



Vision:



Our Vision is an agroforestry transformation in the developing world resulting in a massive increase in the use of working trees on working landscapes by smallholder rural households that helps ensure security in food, nutrition, income, health, shelter and energy and a regenerated environment.

An agroforestry transformation involves a future in which millions of poor farming households have access to portfolios of adapted and productive tree enterprises that improve their livelihoods in a holistic way. Underpinning this transformation is the imperative of accelerated scientific research to ensure that the stream of necessary technical, policy and institutional innovations is forthcoming.



Mission:



Our mission is to advance the science and practice of agroforestry to help realise an Agroforestry Transformation throughout the developing world.
