Our Vision is a rural transformation in the developing
world where smallholder households strategically increase their
use of trees in agricultural landscapes to improve their food
security, nutrition, income, health, shelter, energy resources and
environmental sustainability.
Our Mission is to generate science-based knowledge
about the diverse roles that trees play in agricultural landscapes
and to use our research to advance policies and practices that
benefit the poor and the environment.
