The World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) is a CGIAR Consortium Research Centre and was set up in 1978. ICRAF’s headquarters are in Nairobi, Kenya, with six regional offices located in Cameroon, China, India, Indonesia, Kenya and Peru.
ICRAF generates science-based knowledge about the diverse roles and benefits – both direct and indirect – of agroforestry, or trees in farming systems and agricultural landscapes, and disseminates this knowledge to develop policy options and promote practices that improve livelihoods and benefit the environment.
The Centre responds to livelihood and environmental challenges through tree-based systems in agricultural landscapes. These challenges include poverty and hunger, food insecurity, ill health, energy scarcity, biodiversity, habitat loss, climate change and natural resource degradation. ICRAF carries out it research with different partners, from the field, national and global levels.
