13 Acknowledgement This dissertation would not have been possible without the support of many. First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my highly regarded supervisors at the African Studies Centre Leiden (ASCL): Ton Dietz and Dick Foeken. I would like to thank Ton for being a great motivator and for the many interesting and useful discussions we had. I would like to thank Dick for the many times he patiently went through the whole text with me, and, in particular, for his much appreciated repeated checks on my data analysis. Equally appreciated was the valuable support from Bernd de Bruijn, who provided practical and ecological supervision from his position as a senior conservationist at Vogelbescherming Nederland (VBN: BirdLife in the Netherlands). It was a great pleasure to work on my dissertation at both the ASCL and VBN, and I would like to thank all my colleagues for the good time I had there. Special thanks to those who provided support in the form of feedback, discussions, or practical assistance regarding my thesis, including (in alphabetical order): Anke, Barend, Manon, and Robert (VBN); Akinyinka, Jan-Bart, Han, Harry, Karin, and Wijnand (ASCL research staff); Edith, Ella, Elvire, Jos, Machteld, and Monique (ASCL library staff); Gitty, Harro, Jan, Lotte, Maaike, Marieke, Mieke, Rebecca, and Trudi (ASCL support staff); Romain, Samson, and Samuel (ASCL visiting fellows). Also, many thanks to all my ASCL PhD buddies, including: Agnieszka, Angela, Anika, Doreen, Evelyne, Fatima, Inge, Iva, Karin, Lotje, Martin, Margot, Merel, Nilza, Peter, Rosine, Sebastiaan, Thijs, and Zjos. Last, but not least, many thanks to Anna and Ann (ASCL) for their language editing. The support was by no means restricted to people from these two organisations, and I am thankful to so many others. In particular to people from partner organisations in the UK, including BirdLife International (David Thomas), BTO (Phil Atkinson), Cambridge University (Bill Adams, William Sutherland), and the RSPB (Danaë Sheehan and Juliet Vickery). Back in the Netherlands, Chris Reij, Gerard Persoon, Huub Hendrix, Jan van der Ploeg, Joost Brouwer and Sabine Luning provided valuable feedback and insights, while Anton Vrieling greatly helped with the analysis of climate and vegetation data. I wish to thank Peter Kaan and Magda El Zarki for the language check of a particular chapter. I am probably most indebted to the people in Burkina Faso, who so kindly shared their ideas, personal stories, and homes with me. I owe my gratitude in particular to the Local Conservation Groups in Sourou and Higa, and especially the groups presidents and secretaries, including Drabo Abdina, Pierre xi
14 Ouédraogo (Sourou), Abdoulaye Hama, Alay Hama (and his brother) (Higa), and their welcoming families. NATURAMA (BirdLife in Burkina Faso) provided local contacts, information and other assistance and I would especially like to thank Idrissa Zeba, Nana Adama, Patrice Da, Prudence Tankoano, Bara Yacouba, and Safi Bamogo. This book is dedicated to the late George Oueda, the former Director of Conservation of NATURAMA, who sadly passed away in Georges Oueda was the single most knowledgeable expert in both ornithology and conservation in his country, and I have fond memories of our conservation-related discussions and the few beers we shared. I am also much indebted to my very talented and dedicated research assistants: Idrissa Ouédraogo, Achille Sougrinoma Ouédraogo, and Ibrahim Compaoré. I am also very grateful for the many interviewees who took the time to share their experiences and thoughts with me, and so often invited me into their homes and personal lives. Special thanks to my local friends, Adama Belemvire (for assisting me with the research), Moctar and Franca (for lending their vehicle), Veronica and François (for all the nice BBQs), and Amadou and Anabel, François Ouedraogo, and Martin Ingemansson (for letting me stay at their homes). And for various reasons, thank you Henneke and Ernst IJkelenstam (Dutch Embassy), Karst Kooistra (BioVisio), Boro Sekou (LCG Sourou), Dicko Saido (LCG Higa), and Hamidou Mamoudou (LCG Oursi). To those who are not listed I emphasize that I have treasured each encounter, the many conversations, and especially the numerous cups of tea. Lastly, I would like to thank my family in particular my mum, dad and brother: Elise, Alexander and Hugo (for their continuous support and enthusiasm) as well as my friends in particular Adriaan (for lending a vehicle in Burkina Faso), Richard, Jan, Roderick and Rogier (for their continuous interest), and my girlfriend Benthe (for her support and interest, and much more). xii
