This document outlines the goals and structure of the CGIAR Research Program on Forests, Trees and Agroforestry. The program aims to increase sustainable productivity and livelihoods through research on smallholder systems, forest and tree resource management, environmental services, and climate change impacts. It will take an integrated approach across scales and disciplines. The program consists of 5 components addressing issues like production, conservation, landscape management, climate change, and trade impacts. It establishes teams and committees for implementation and governance to achieve impacts like reducing deforestation and increasing incomes for millions of people by 2022. Challenges include integrating diverse methods, inclusive decision-making, and managing expectations with limited additional funding.
