ILEIA, the Centre for Learning on sustainable agriculture, is an independent organisation with the mandate to contribute to poverty alleviation through the promotion of agro-ecological approaches.

ILEIA has chosen the collection and dissemination of information as a means of contributing to improving the development options available to farmers, by informing those either directly involved in, or indirectly affecting, rural development. Information disseminated by ILEIA is freely available to all who wish to use and/or reproduce it.

Background

ILEIA supports the search for sustainable alternatives to conventional high-input agriculture by collecting, analysing and exchanging information on practical experiences of small farmers, particularly in the South. ILEIA co-operates with many other organisations and individuals in promoting ecologically sound agriculture throughout the world.

The main target group is development workers working directly with farmers, within national governments, NGOs, research institutions or other projects. The Farming Matters magazines are also read and appreciated by academics, researchers in universities and policy makers.
