AU World Agroforestry 
AB This year, 2013, the World Agroforestry Centre's Southeast Asia Program (and the Indonesia and Philippine programs) celebrates 20 years of agroforestry research for development. The anniversary has provided us with an opportunity to reflect on the last two decades of work. In these pages, in particular, we have traced the major research thread from its inception searching for Alternatives to Slash-and-Burn agriculture and restoring degraded Imperata grassland to the present expansion of negotiation-support methods that encourage low-emissions development through participatory land-use planning. Our region has also embarked on studies pertaining to resource and land rights over the last couple of decades. We are proud to have been able to contribute to the development goals of the countries we work in and those of our partners, who have been improving the livelihoods and environmental health of the region for decades. These relationships are very important to us, providing our management and research teams not only with the necessary financial support but also collegial collaboration and guidance through the complex and oft-competing demands of natural resources management, economic growth, national and international priorities, environmental sustainability and human and natural wellbeing.
