Abstract

The demand side of illegal wildlife trade (IWT) has received increasing academic, media, and policy attention for its powerful potential to address the biodiversity extinction crisis. The article contributes to this emerging literature by analysing demand reduction campaigns for illegally traded wildlife in Vietnam, a country that has been named and shamed by transnational conservation elites as one of key perpetrators of species loss across Africa. Conspicuous consumption of ‘rare’ and ‘prestige’ wildlife by the wealthy and nouveaux riches of Vietnam has been identified as a principal factor threatening the survival of many wild species. Accordingly/not surprisingly, significant amounts of donor and government money have been channelled to consumer-targeted interventions and campaigns in that country.
