Regoverning Markets: A place for small-scale producers in modern agrifood
chains?
<http://www.gowerpub.com/> cover pic Edited by: Bill Vorley, Andrew Fearne
and Derek Ray
This book offers a contemporary look at what happens when the modernisation
of food supply chains comes face to face with the livelihoods of rural and
poor people. The authors are drawn from eighteen countries participating in
the 'Regoverning Markets' programme, which aims to not only improve our
understanding of the way modernisation and re-structuring of food supply
chains is affecting food production and distribution systems, but also
identify best-practice in involving small-scale producers in supermarket
supply chains, and ascertain the barriers to inclusion which need to be
removed.

Trees, poverty and targets. Forests and the Millennium Development Goals
IIED Briefing Paper

Where are the forests in the MDGs?
When players in the forestry world get together they are good at setting
goals. They are a good match for the political leaders that gave us the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Since the 1980s there has been a
proliferation of international dialogues dealing with forests and, a bit
like the football World Cup, every four years or so they come up with a
feast of goals. If forestry goals were all we needed to make progress, then
sustainable and pro-poor forestry would have long since become a worldwide
reality. Of course, implementation still lags well behind aspiration, but at
least there is now a considerable body of international knowledge and
agreement on how forests can contribute to development.
