The Consortium Research Program - 'Forests, Trees and Agroforestry: Livelihoods, Landscapes and Governance' - is an initiative of the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), the World Agroforestry Centre, the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and Bioversity International.

Impact driven and innovative, the program aims to enhance the management and use of forests, agroforestry and tree genetic resources across the landscape, from farms to forests.

We would like to thank those who provided comments and participated in the development of this research initiative.

The Forests, Trees and Agroforestry proposal was approved at the April 2011 CGIAR Fund Council meeting.
