An age-old practice and a relatively new research approach, agroforestry is gradually finding its niche in agricultural and forestry research, training, education and development institutions in many countries. Throughout Africa, universities and technical colleges aire getting involved in teaching agroforestry, but how they achieve this largely depends-on the objectives of their existing educational curricula and programmes , human and financial resources, and infrastructure. Thus agroforestry teaching varies greatly among institutions. ICRAF, through its training materials project, is assisting national institutions to develop their own agroforestry training materials based on available research and development information and adapted to suit the needs of individual institutions in various agroecological regions. One of the mechanisms to achieve this" is through training materials workshops for trainers. The first such workshop held in November 1993, proposed that a teaching manual for certificate and diploma levels be developed, coordinated by the African Network for Agroforestry Education (ANAFE).
