Purpose
Overcrowded cities in developing countries present challenging environments for health, where zoonoses and food safety are difficult to control. Whilst animal source foods (ASF) have a well-recognized role in nutrition of vulnerable populations, their availability, safety and quality are ...

The role of food systems in improving maternal and child nutrition in challenging African low-income settings
Purpose:
Research on livestock food systems in developing countries remains limited, yet this context needs to
be understood to investigate the epidemiology of zoonoses. The aim of this study was to use a value
chain framework to characterize the broiler and indigenous chicken meat systems of Nai...

Using a value chain framework for food safety assessment of broiler and indigenous chicken meat systems of Nairobi
In Nairobi, with 3.1 million consumers and 30,000 pigs, the pork system may represents a major source of zoonotic pathogens. Yet, this system and its public health risks have not been described. The study used value chain analysis, a well-known method in economics, to investigate zoonosis and foo...

Value chain mapping of broiler and indigenous chicken production systems in Nairobi as a first step to food safety and food security assessments
Fish make important contributions to food and nutrition security in low and middle income countries; however, they are also prone to contamination with a range of chemical and biological hazards. The presence of people's perception and health hazards has implications for consumer acceptability an...
