“…At the same time, the willingness to pay a fair price for farming products is limited and further complicated by the knock-on effects associated with the current war in Ukraine and the 'cost of living' crisis (World Economic Forum 2023). Farmers are, however, seen as a key group that can contribute significantly to tackling the biodiversity crisis (Hallgren et al 2020, Reay et al 2020. With these new issues playing out already, mitigation of conflicts around bird conservation needs to consider the multiple pressures perceived by key stakeholder groups such as farmers and devise ways of integrating them as partners in conservation (L ecuyer et al 2022).…”

Negative interactions between humans and animals are becoming increasingly frequent, as wild habitats shrink and human presence and activities expand throughout the world. Conflicts between people over conservation are one of the outcomes of this increased interaction, with severe consequences for both wildlife and people. Globally, conflicts can arise across diverse ecosystems, species and circumstances. Even if most attention in wildlife‐related conflicts has been on mammals, birds are also often at the centre of such conflicts, but conflict research is still not explicitly present in ornithological literature. Examples of such conflicts include those related to birds and agriculture, forestry, hunting, fishing and public health interests. Conflicts are often more complex than initial assessments might suggest, involving ecological, economic, cultural, social and political elements. Reflecting the complexity of these issues and their increasing relevance to bird conservation, a British Ornithologists' Union conference was organized in November 2021 that aimed to highlight examples of conflicts that exist between people over birds and their conservation. Building on this conference, we provide here a review of key themes relating to the understanding of conflicts, including the importance of conflict perceptions, the collaboration between multiple disciplines and the different types of knowledge needed to better understand conflicts. We then consider the management of bird conservation conflicts, including the key issues of dealing with uncertainty, the role of technical solutions and the importance of collaboration and building trust, illustrating each theme with real‐world examples. Finally, we outline potential future conflicts around bird conservation and how best to address them proactively.

“…Tourism poverty alleviation strategies through food security policy measures entail the development of standards for land use and small farmers' entrepreneurship perceptions. With regard to food production, a rural land use policy within a local and socioeconomic context relieves the extremes of food pressure and the anthropogenic effects of climate change (Reay et al, 2020 ). The aforementioned is achievable if the focus is trained on policy-driven lifestyle changes that are based on cognition.…”

Poverty is a challenge leading to food insecurity in people's minds. This article discusses food governance as a psychological mechanism to facilitate the sense of wellness in people's minds in the context of tourism poverty alleviation. Mainly, we argue that, when a government is implementing tourism poverty alleviation, not only are economic efforts, but also positive psychological feelings are required. We, thus, argue that sound food governance may increase the sense of wellness in the minds of people as food consumers by increasing food safety and security. This perspective paper contributes by explicating the influences of macrolevel governance design of safer and more secure food systems on people's psychological wellness, especially against the background of tourism poverty alleviation in developing countries.

“…The livestock food system globally contributes significantly to the livelihoods of about one-fifth of the global population (Herrero & Thornton, 2013;Reay et al, 2020), and most of the world's pastoralists' livelihoods are dependent on livestock production (Downie, 2011;Ndiritu, 2020;Noor et al, 2013). Studies also indicate that by 2050, 50% of the African population will be urban dwellers, and this combined with an anticipated increase in global human population to 9 billion will likely create a growing demand for livestock products worldwide (Willet et al, 2019).…”

The camel milk value chain plays a critical role as a primary foundation of livelihoods among the pastoralist communities, but it faces a great challenge in control mechanisms to enhance a sustainable marketing system. Our study analyzes the drivers and processes influencing the sustainability of the camel milk value chain in Isiolo County, northern Kenya. In this paper, we report on aspects of the characteristics of the value chain players and efficacy of its regulatory frameworks, and propose a model for an enhanced system. We conducted the study using primary data from a field survey and obtained secondary data from a desk study. We collected primary data through interviews with households using a survey questionnaire. Using a survey guide, we also conducted key informant interviews to supplement the household information. Secondary data was obtained from the literature review. We report that the camel milk value chain has three categories of actors: the micro-actors (input suppliers, producers, bulking centers, processors, and marketers), the support services providers (e.g., extension services, financial institutions), and the policy-makers who shape the enabling environment of the system. Lack of processing capacity and poor institutional coordination among the chain actors and support institutions were identified as major challenges affecting the sustainability of the camel milk value chain. We present a well-regulated camel milk value chain model for the county with a focus on establishing a camel milk policy to lead to a sustainable system.
