Does your research cover approaches to managing demand for wildlife products? We are inviting submissions to People and Nature for a Special Feature edited by Diogo Veríssimo, Jenny A. Glikman and EJ Milner-Gulland, covering novel research on this topic.

You can find out more about the Special Feature here.

To discuss ideas or for any questions, please contact Diogo (diogo.gasparverissimo@zoo.ox.ac.uk). Diogo will also be at ICCB and would be happy to talk to anyone interested in submitting an abstract for consideration in the Special Feature.

We are inviting submissions covering novel research and approaches to managing demand for wildlife products, in particular work around:
• Understanding consumer preferences and choices
• Design and implementation of behavior change interventions
• Impact evaluation of interventions aiming to influence consumers of wildlife products
Submissions that cross multiple disciplines, as well as those from practitioners working in developing countries are of particular interest.

To register your interest, submit a 300 word abstract of the paper together with a tentative title and article type to Diogo Veríssimo for consideration. The authors of abstracts found to be within the scope of the Special Feature will be invited to submit full papers by October 2019.
