CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Arid upland landscape

An arid upland landscape in Yunnan Province, China. Landscapes with poor forest cover are subject to severe erosion and periodic flooding that can be devastating to downstream villages. Afforested hillsides are visible across the valley.
