Living with elephants
The Kavango‐Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KaZa TFCA) is home to one of the largest populations of African savanna elephants (approximately 227,000), a species iconic for ecological balance but also a major driver of human–elephant conflict (HEC). This study investigates how spatial and socio‐economic factors shape household perceptions and tolerance towards elephants in the Zimbabwean part of KaZa TFCA. Using a survey sample of 668 hou…
More than proteins for empty stomachs
Our paper highlights the limitations of the framework used by many conservation‐focused programmes that incorporate food security objectives. This framework encourages the substitution of wild proteins with domestic proteins by promoting animal farming in communities located near conservation areas. We argue that this ‘protein substitution’ objective disregards key assumptions from the field of socio‐anthropology and food studies: Meat is more th…
Réflexion Sur L'évolution De La Mobilité Des Pasteurs Nomades Au Tchad
Chad stretches, longitudinally, between two distinct ecological poles. Historically, transhumant herders have profited from this diversity that enabled them to gain complementary advantages at different times of the year. Public policies aimed at diversifying production in each of these zones are impacting on this large-scale system, breaking down specialization and increasing competition. On the other hand, the newly promoted 'agro-pastoral' mod…
