Conserving wildlife through demand reduction and supply alternatives: Two experiments in restaurants in Kinshasa

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract High aggregate levels of wildlife consumption in cities in Central Africa highlight the need for solutions that balance wildlife protection, local livelihoods and the relational values between people and nature. This study explores the impacts of demand‐ and supply‐side interventions on wild meat consumption through two randomized control ...

Patterns of wild meat and other protein consumption in the periphery of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In Central Africa, human activities are severely impacting terrestrial and aquatic wildlife, threatening the food security of millions of people. Accordingly, sustainable use of wildlife is crucial for the nutrition and livelihoods of many rural communities in the region.

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...
