Africa Rice Center (WARDA) is an autonomous intergovernmental research
association of African member states. WARDA is also one of the 15
international agricultural research Centers supported by the
Consultative Group on
International Agricultural Research (CGIAR).
WARDA’s mission is to contribute to poverty alleviation and food
security in Africa, through research, development and partnership
activities aimed at increasing the productivity and profitability of the
rice sector in ways that ensure the sustainability of the farming
environment.
WARDA hosts the
African Rice Initiative (ARI), the
Regional Rice Research and Development Network for West and Central
Africa (ROCARIZ), and the
Inland Valley Consortium (IVC). It also supports the Coordination
Unit of the Eastern and Central African Rice Research Network (ECSARRN),
based in Tanzania.
Since January 2005, WARDA has been working out of the IITA-Benin station
in Cotonou, having relocated from its headquarters in Bouaké, Côte
d’Ivoire, because of the Ivoirian crisis. WARDA has regional research
stations near St Louis, Senegal and at the
International Institute
for Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in Ibadan, Nigeria. |
