dc.descriptionIn 2008, FAO initiated the project “Supporting Food Security and Reducing Poverty in Kenya and Tanzania through Dynamic Conservation of Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS)". Two years running, in 2008 the project identified the Maasai pastoral systems and Upland Agro-forestry systems as the most creative form of livelihoods that have withstood the test of time and deserving recognition as heritage agricultural systems of global importance and hence requiring support. This re cognition was followed by a pilot site selection mission led by the Project Facilitating Team, which targeted three main agro-systems namely; the Chagga home gardens, the Pare Ndiva system and the Matengo pit system. The evaluation team ended up ranking the Uru-Shimbwe Juu site within the Chagga home gardens as the most integral Upland agrosystem, in which all the critical heritage features are represented and associated with this system.
