Description

The Asian Rural Institute (ARI) is a training center for Rural Leaders .

Founded in 1973 by Rev. Dr. Toshihiro Takami the aim of the program is to invite and train local grassroots leaders to more effectively serve in their communities as they work for the poor, the hungry, and the marginalized.

Each year from April to December we bring together about 30 leaders from countries primarily in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific to take part in our Rural Leaders Training Program.

The training focuses on sustainable agriculture through integrated organic farming techniques, community building, and leadership. It is community based and hands-on learning is emphasized in all areas.

Working together we grow and share our own food. At the heart of the program is the concept of 'Foodlife' - a term designed to recognize and value the interdependency between life and the food that sustains all life.

To date, ARI has trained over 1000 rural leaders from 55 countries throughout Asia, Africa, and the Pacific.
