In addition to the chapter authors, many other individuals contributed to Youth and the Rural Economy in Africa: Hard Work and Hazard.

First and foremost, we are deeply grateful to the hundreds of young people, and others, who took the time to participate in the research.

Field work was expertly led by Dr Victoria Flavia Namuggala (Makerere University, Uganda), Prof. Okello Uma Ipolto (Gulu University, Uganda), Dr Mamo Hebo Wabe (Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia), Dr Fekadu Adugna Tufa (Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia), Dr Bela Teeken (International Institute for Tropical Agriculture, Nigeria), Dr Tessy Madu (National Root Crops Research Institute, Nigeria) and Dr Affou Philomne Koffi (Universit Flix Houphout-Boigny, Cte dIvoire). In each country these individuals worked with one or more teams of field researchers, and their dedication throughout the research process is very gratefully acknowledged.

Dr Hailemariam Ayalew, Dr Kibrom Abay and Ms Woinishet Asnake made valuable contributions to the analysis of LSMSISA data.

Prof. Agnes Andersson Djurfeldt, Dr Keetie Roelen and Prof. Rachel Sabates-Wheeler provided valuable reviews of draft chapters.

The research was undertaken with grants from the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), the Agricultural Policy Research in Africa programme (APRA) (funded by the UK Department for International Development, DFID), and the MasterCard Foundation; their support is gratefully acknowledged. The opinions expressed here belong to the authors, and do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of these funders.

Finally, without the support and critical eye of Dr Christine Okali, this book would never have seen the light of day.
