Abstract:	"Participatory watershed management forces practitioners to move beyond an emphasis on individual land users to group decision-making and multi-stakeholder negotiations to improve common natural resource management problems. This paper is dedicated to a discussion of approaches being developed under the umbrella of the African Highlands Initiative and the African Grassroots Initiative for Livelihoods and Environment to use an action research approach to multi-stakeholder processes in watershed management. It presents research findings from multi-stakeholder engagement processes in agroforestry, highlighting general principles guiding multi- stakeholder engagement in other watershed management themes."
