The collection represents the contributions of the Snyders and their daughter, Cherie, through papers, publications, awards,
artifacts and images. In addition to documenting their work, many of the materials offer a unique view of life in contemporary
Africa and the efforts of agricultural extension and development in the Northwestern part of that continent. Many of the artifacts
were created by artisans from around the world, from Tifton to Ouagadougou, and given to the Snyders in thanks for their efforts
promoting international development projects. These materials were displayed in conjunction the Darl Snyder Lecture in 2004.
At that time the Snyders toured the exhibit with Dr. Lioba Moshi, Director of the UGA African Studies Institutes. A transcription
of their remarks regarding the significance or history of various artifacts can be found in folder 20 of box 1. In addition
we have placed their comments with the description of items in the list below, identifying the speaker by their initials,
D.S. or F.S. for Darl or Florence Snyder.
