The role of animals in society
How many of you have eaten meat, eggs, milk in the last 24 hours? Who is wearing leather shoes and belts? Who is wearing a jumper or jacket made from wool? Who has a pet? Who has a horse? And who is a vegan?
Even vegans are affected by animals as they compete for resources in the production of food

Animals are a fundamental aspect of societies
Feed and clothe people
Give pleasure and company
Provide transport
Act as an investment and store of wealth

Livestock food systems – what do we really know
5
They produce cheap and plentiful products
They generate infectious diseases
They contribute to obesity
They contribute to greenhouse gases
They are poorly described and poorly understood

How have we been approaching the livestock food systems recently
We have adopted an approach a value chain analysis approach Through a link with a joint British research council funded project we have a major field site – Nairobi We are linked to major ILRI and A4NH research And we have other processes of data collection and analysis with a focus on brucellosis – Albania, Egypt, Mexico, Kazakstan, India

What have we learnt?
Diets of the urban poor are inadequate in meeting their micro nutrient needs • There is a disconnect between very active food systems
and these people
Attribution of food borne diseases is poorly understood • The focus tends to be single pathogen blinkered • There is a poor understanding of transmission dynamics
15

Where to next
Development of models to examine the flows through the food system Understanding of the governance of these systems and how it influences the flows - Linking the social and economic analysis with biological assessments of food and pathogens • A wider UrbanZoo aim supported by Liverpool and
Edinburgh Universities

Where to next
Expand the demand survey to have a representative sample across Nairobi • This was last done over ten years ago
Ensuring that the surveillance systems capture all aspects of health • including how the food system provides adequate
nutrition Leading to better policy direction through a better understanding of risks and resilience of the food system

And within the Tanzania and Zambia work
Using similar frameworks data collection and analysis of the food systems in the project areas We will be more gender and culture sensitive and be more focused on nutrition Mapping the flows of products, nutrients and hazards across the system Understanding the human behaviour across the system

Summary
Providing clarity on complex livestock food systems Avoiding simply measuring the measurable Focus on measuring the important
