What
Canada is achieving with us
Canada was the instigator and a key supporting founder
of the World Agroforestry Centre 25 years ago, and
has been a major supporter of its work ever since.
Over the last five years it has contributed almost
USD 2 million to the Centre’s core activities and
over USD 9.5 million to specific projects. In recent
years Canadian support has made a major contribution
to the work of the Centre. It has helped develop a
suite of adapted agroforestry technologies for southern
Africa, promoted the use of ‘live fences’ in the Sahel
to help farmers expand their dry season gardens and
incomes, and developed the use of ICTs to help previously
marginalized East African farmers access better technical
production information.

What
Germany is achieving with us
Germany has been a major supporter of the World Agroforestry
Centre since the Centre began 25 years ago, and over
the last five years has contributed almost USD 1 million
to our core activities and USD 1.5 million to specific

of whole new industries based on indigenous fruit
tree species, with significant impacts on rural incomes
and nutrition. It has also cemented our relationships
with the universities of Hannover and Kassel, whose
staff and students have been actively involved in
this work.
