Mission

Our vision is for the wider scale use of trees and tree-based technologies on farms and agricultural landscapes, coupled with improved policies and institutional innovations, to make significant contribution towards alleviating poverty and improving food security and environmental conservation. We expect a significant proportion of the agricultural poor in the region to have been reached, and benefiting from the outputs of the programme: strengthened institutions, improved policies, and appropriate integrated technologies.
