Stories of market forces and local heroes from around the world. Pascale Harter introduces dispatches from BBC correspondents, reporters and writers abroad. This week: Mark Lowen meets some of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's biggest fans, at a congress of his AK Party as they choose the next man to serve him as Prime Minister. He's much criticised on the international scene, but Erdogan is still adored by many at home. Why? As Britain prepares to vote in a referendum on whether to stay in the EU or leave, Imogen Foulkes explores the Swiss model for European countries which aren't part of the Union - and how it works for local students and businesses Justin Rowlatt goes for an unusual - and rather alarming - trip out to a farm in Afghanistan which grows wheat, melons, cotton ... and a lot of opium. As the farmer explains, around here police will look the other way and many depend on the drug crop. And Hannah McNeish goes on the milk run with some of the female entrepreneurs who're transforming the dairy industry in Kenya - by keeping camels, not cattle, as their livestock. Camel-cinos are now on offer in Nairobi's trendiest cafes, but fundamentally the switch is more about fighting drought than following fashion.
