This important initiative was possible because of the commitment of senior authorities in the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare. Special gratitude goes to Ms Nomathemba Dlamini, the Principal Secretary, and Mr. Sikelela Dlamini, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare and the Chairman of the SAM Steering Committee, who were very supportive from the beginning of the process. The effective involvement of various units within the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare was highly appreciated. The contribution of the Swaziland National Programme on AIDS particularly the Monitoring and Evaluation Unit which supervised the whole process from the consultative stakeholders meeting until the finalization of the report was determinant. We particularly would like to thank Sibongile Maseko, former M&E focal point, Sibongile Mndzebele, current M & E focal point in Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, M&E officers Nomsa Mulima, Sandile Dlamini, and Nqaba Nhlebela who actively participated in planning, data collection and analysis. The contribution throughout the process of the Office of the Surveyor General in the Ministry of Natural Resources, namely Mr. Sidney Simelane, chairman of the SAM Technical Committee, and Mr. Patrick Mkhonta, was very much appreciated. The same goes to the National Emergency Response Council to HIV/AIDS (NERCHA) for their participation in data analysis. We are grateful to WHO, particularly to Dr David Okello, former WR in Swaziland, and to Dr Edward Maganu, current WHO Representative in Swaziland, for their advice encouragement and support. Our appreciation also goes to Dr Augistin Ntlivamunda, HIV/AIDS Country Officer, Dr Benjamin Gama, National Programme Officer, Mr. Thamsanqa Dlamini, IT Officer, and Mr Phakama Dlamini for the role they played in SAM planning, execution and data analysis. Special thanks go to Dr Gorge Loth, former WHO/HQ staff and who retired in 2006, and to Shanthi Noriega Minichiello, Service Availability Mapping Focal Point in HQ/Geneva, for the key roles they played in planning and implementation of SAM in Swaziland. Without their determination and technical support, the exercise would not have been possible. Finally, we acknowledge the valuable financial support from WHO, the collaborative and supportive efforts from the Regional Office in Brazzaville and headquarters in Geneva. 3 Abbreviations and acronyms ACT Artemisin-based Combination Therapy AIDS Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome ANC Antenatal Care ART Antiretroviral Therapy ARV Antiretroviral ASRH Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health CDR Crude Death Rate FDI Foreign Direct Investment GDP Gross Domestic Product GPS Global Positioning System HIV Human Immunodeficiency Virus HRH Human Resources for Health HTC HIV Testing and Counseling IMA/ART Integrated Management of Adult Illness/Antiretroviral Therapy IMCI Integrated Management of Childhood Illness IMR Infant Mortality Rate NVP/AZT Neverapine/zidovudin MMR Maternal Mortality Rate MoEPD Ministry of Economic Planning and Development MoH Ministry of Health NCD Non-Communicable Disease ORS Oral Rehydration Salts TB Tuberculosis PDA Personal Digital Assistant PEP Post Exposure Prophylaxis PHU Primary Health Unit PLACE Priority for Local AIDS Control Efforts PLWHA People Living With HIV/AIDS PMTCT Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission PPA Priority Prevention Area PSAM Prevention Service Availability Mapping SAM Service Availability Mapping U5MR Under-Five Mortality Rate VCT Voluntary counselling and Testing WHO World Health Organization 4 Table of contents 1.

Box 57, Fax: (+268)24044851/24047252 Mbabane, E-mail: [email protected] Swaziland 20th January, 2016. UPDATE FROM THE MINISTER ON THE DROUGHT AND CURRENT WATER SCARCITY BACKGROUND 1. Swaziland and the Southern African region is currently undergoing a very serious drought situation. Climate Change has worsened the situation and the country has been experiencing below average rainfall in the past three (3) years. We are advised this severe drought along with a scorching heat wave (El Nino) is one of the strongest on record, and is unfortunately unyielding. 2. Our current state of water storage across the country is seriously below the long term averages observed over the past five (5) years. This situation is as a result of the low river flows due to the lack of sufficient rainfall to recharge our river systems to fill up the dams. Currently our four (4) major dams; namely Hawane, Maguga, Mnjoli and Lubovane are recording very low levels of water storage. These dams are currently recording 6%, 35%, 6 % and 67% respectively. Government notes that all the five major river basins of the country have been greatly affected. In the Ngwavuma Basin there is currently no irrigation taking place as the river has since dried up. The Mbuluzi, Lusutfu, Lomati and Komati are also quickly following suit. While the situation calls for the implementation of robust measures; the Ministry is aware of the impact the complete 1 suspension of commercial irrigation in these river systems would have on the national economy and the country’s commitment to international markets.

O. Box 7967, Mbabane. Eswatini Lot 33, Pholinjane Road, Malunge Township, Farm 2, Dalriach No. 188, Mbabane Telephone: +268 7806 3607 Email: [email protected] www.youngheroes.org.sz Ms. Sithandazile Dube - Project Manager Project team: Mr. Maxwell Simelane- Project Officer Mrs. Xolisile Mpanza - Project Officer. Project Objectives The economic strengthening project aims to mitigate gender inequalities and socioeconomic disparities to all orphan and vulnerable (OVC) caregivers and encourage participation in the WORTH groups. In the first year, 199 caregivers participate in 10 groups, and each group comprises 20 members starting in the Lubombo region. The overall goal is to improve OVC households' economic status so that they are self-reliant and sustain themselves economically. This is achieved by bringing women together into groups, encouraging participation, financial literacy training, and managing Income Generating Activities (IGAs). The changes expected at the end of the project are: • The economic condition of participating women and their children improves as the women become financially literate and support each other in establishing microenterprises. This additional income will strengthen their families' health via better nutrition and provide funds for household necessities and school tuitions. • Women will be financially literate and create the opportunity for them to become self- sufficient microentrepreneurs. Funding The program remains fully funded by the grant provided by Dining for Women and implemented by Young Heroes in Eswatini.

This region was targeted because it covers 31% of the country and has a semiarid climate with an average annual precipitation between 400mm and 800mm, which makes it very difficult to grow crops without a moisture conservation plan. This report covers the activities conducted under the umbrella of two primary sectors, which were the focus of the 2009- 2012 IRD Swaziland’s program areas: 1.
