Biodiversity-Based Value Chains: A review of best practices for selected biodiversity-based value chains that promotes pro-poor conservation in the Horn of Africa

There is an increasing interest to develop initiatives that promote the growth of biodiversity-based value chain approaches that utilize biodiversity in and outside conservation areas. This book reviews experiences in developing biodiversity-based value chains that alleviate poverty and conserve biodiversity. It is based on a workshop, write shop and a field excursion organized in 2015 by the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and the African Network for Agroforestry Education (ANAFE). The book describes seven biodiversity-based products that have the potential to address social and biodiversity conservation.
