Cocoa agroforestry in West and Central Africa : From definition to innovation and implementation pathways

International scientific workshop on the definition, innovation and implementation of cocoa agroforestry in West and Central Africa, co-organized by CIRAD.

CIRAD and several partners worldwide are holding a 2-day international workshop to contribute to the heated ongoing debate on the definition of cocoa agroforestry in West-Central Africa (WCA) and on the pathways to innovations and implementation at scale.
The outcomes of the workshop will be directly relevant to cocoa production in Asia and America.
The 2-day workshop, in English and French, is scheduled in a mixed format combining an in-person gathering at Agropolis, Montpellier, France with many other participants linked virtually.
The first day will be dedicated to the science of cocoa agroforestry. The second day will be used to discuss how to integrate cocoa agroforestry in West and Central Africa.
