CARE is the world's largest non-sectarian, non-governmental, relief and
development agency. Founded in 1946 to provide relief in Europe, CARE is
now operational in 35 countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America. CARE's
worldwide relief and development budget for 1990 was approximately USS
375 million. Within CARE, development activities fall within three sectors:
agriculture and natural resources; primary health care; and small economic
activity development.
Agriculture and natural resource management projects are a major, highly
visible component of CARE's rural development programming in West
Africa. The objective of this paper is to re-examine the premises upon which
the current projects, and particularly the agroforestry projects in the Sahelo-
Sudanian and Sahelian zones, are based. Dr~,wing on 15 years experience in
these zones, as well as the lessons learned from a series of project evaluations
over the last 5 years, a framework is developed to prioritize activities relative
to the major ecological zones in the region.
