Amos G. Makalla Mbeya region has a total surface area of 35,954sq. kms out of which 461.7 sq.kms is covered by water bodies of Lake Nyasa and several rivers while the remaining 34,144.3 sq.km is land area. Administratively, the Region is divided into 5 districts with 7 Local Government Authorities (LGAs). The Administrative Districts include Mbeya, Chunya, Mbarali, Kyela, Rungwe, 15 divisions, 178 wards, 533 villages and 181 Mitaa. According to the 2012 census the undivided Mbeya region had a population of 2,707,410 people out of whom 1,297,738 are male and 1,409,672 are female. The new Mbeya Region population projection of 2016 was 1,883,024, out of whom 902,479 are male and 980,545 are female. Mbeya has a good road transport connection to Dar es Salaam (the main harbour and commercial city of Tanzania) and to other neighbouring regions. There is also a railway line which links Mbeya to Dar es Salaam and Kapirimposhi in Zambia. The existence of Mbeya – Malawi Cargo Dry port is an added 7 advantage. All key economic areas within the region can be reached with ease. There is a new international airport Songwe as started operating linking Mbeya with Dar es Salaam and link to other cities of Southern African countries such as Malawi, Zambia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, and South Africa. Water supply system is also adequately developed for domestic and industrial use. The region is also connected to the National electricity grid system which is continually being upgraded and expanded to meet the present and future requirements. There is a good number of modern communication and media companies operating in the region, serving both local and international needs. Topographically, Mbeya Region consists of 3 ecological zones: lowlands (within the Rift valley), plains (including Usangu wetlands) and highlands (Uporoto highlands and Livingstone mountain ranges). These ecological zones are favourable for the development of agriculture, forestry, industry, tourist services and mining. Apart from rain fed agriculture, the Region has about 110,721 hectares that are suitable for irrigation, out of which 25,626 hectares need to be developed. The Region is also rich in a variety of mineral deposits including coal, gold and industrial minerals such as limestone, marble, iron ore and phosphates. Mbeya Region has a large tourist potential with famous sites such as Lake Ngosi, Ihefu wetland plains, Matema Beach, etc. 8 The economy of Mbeya is based on agriculture, livestock and bee keeping, fishing, commerce and manufacturing. Other economic activities and potentials include mining and tourism. On the basis of current prices, Mbeya Regional Gross Domestic Product was Tshs 5.831 trillion and per capital income was Tshs. 3,097,049 in year 2016. The Region contributed 5.62 % in the national income (GDP) holding a third position national-wide after Dar-es-Salaam and Mwanza To maintain and improve this growth target, the Region has planned to concentrate on the following activities: First, further development of agriculture, livestock farming, forestry, fisheries and beekeeping sub-sectors for large volume and high quality production to meet domestic and export markets. Second, expansion of important road networks to key economic areas including industrial zones in urban areas. Third, taking measures aimed at expanding and developing the tourist sector. The fourth step is to gradually transform and update utilities infrastructure including electricity, water supply and sewerage systems. Apart from our own efforts, the region wishes to attract investments from domestic and foreign investors as well as economic organizations for the purpose of exploiting the regions opportunities on the basis of mutual benefits in various areas. Therefore, I am looking forward to cooperate with you in making Mbeya Region a vibrant investment location in Tanzania. 9 Welcome to Mbeya Region! Karibuni Mkoani Mbeya! Hon. Amos G.

    National Investment Profile Water for Agriculture and Energy -Final Draft

    NATIONAL INVESTMENT PROFILE WATER FOR AGRICULTURE AND ENERGY -FINAL DRAFT- TANZANIA National Investment Profile. Water for Agriculture and Energy: Tanzania EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Tanzania’s vision for using water resources for agriculture and energy are firmly embedded in both irrigation and hydropower development policies respectively. These issues are both part of the Tanzania poverty eradication agenda in line with the Tanzania Development Vision 2025 and the five year National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty, commonly known as MKUKUTA I (2005-2010) and MKUKUTA II (2010-2015) which is currently underway. The key policies which are followed for agriculture and hydropower are further supported by the Continental movement towards Africa’s Green revolution. Tanzania has signed the Comprehensive Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) compact and has initiated a number of programs and reforms to increase the investment in the agricultural sector. These programs have a strong emphasis on irrigation. Despite a total irrigation development potential in Tanzania of 29.4 million ha, only 450 392 ha have been irrigated thus demonstrating the need to develop the sector. Furthermore, irrigation practices in Tanzania show low water use efficiency, low water productivity and over dependency on surface water as a major source for irrigation development. The increased investment via the CAADP Compact should be able to support the development of the sector. Hydropower in the country contributes almost 50 percent of the energy produced. On a large scale, hydropower is being developed as a combined hydro-thermal system. On a smaller scale, hydropower is used as a source of renewable energy and a way to increase rural electrification.

    International Journal of Medicinal Plants and Natural Products (IJMPNP) Volume 1, Issue 3, 2015, PP 15-23 ISSN 2454-7999 (Online) www.arcjournals.org Ethnopharmacological Study on Medicinal Plants Used to Treat Infectious Diseases in the Rungwe District, Tanzania Sheila M. Maregesi, Rogers Mwakalukwa Department of Pharmacognosy, School of Pharmacy, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania smaregesi @hotmail.com Abstract: An ethnopharmacological survey was conducted in two villages of Rungwe district, Mbeya Region, Tanzania. In this area, the use of plants for the treatment of various diseases is still very high, especially infectious diseases which are endemic in the tropical countries and leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Information was obtained from one traditional healer and two other experienced persons, having some knowledge on medicinal plants. A total of twenty plants were reported for use in the treatment of various infectious conditions and were documented during the field study. These plants belong to 18 genera and 11 families of which Asteraceae was the most represented. Amongst uses of various phytoorgans, leaves ranked highest, the most used method of preparation being decoction (57%). The most frequently mentioned route of administration was oral. The plants recorded for treating chronic infectious conditions amounted to 38%. It was found out that, people in this area commonly use medicinal plants with trust they have built on the curative outcome witnessed. However, this creates a further work to test for the antimicrobial activity and standardization of herbal preparation if these plants proven to be safe.

    Governace Process in Tanzania 4

    221 Part REDD+ Governace Process in Tanzania 4 Chapter 223 10 Lessons Learned from REDD+ Pilot Projects in Kondoa and Rungwe Districts, Tanzania George C. Kajembe1, Dos Santos A. Silayo1, Khamaldin J. Mutabazi1, Fathihia Massawe1, Maria Nantongo3 and Arild Vatn2 Abstract Reduced deforestation and forest degradation ‘plus’ the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhanced carbon stock (REDD+) has been singled out as one of the core strategies against climate change. At the same time, forests offer important livelihoods. To acquire experience on how to establish REDD+ ‘on the ground’, REDD+ pilot projects were established in Tanzania. The pilots were expected to provide valuable insights on many issues that will likely be encountered by both the government and local communities as REDD+ develops to assist in future REDD+ initiative. This study was conducted to draw lessons from two REDD+ pilot projects in Kondoa and Rungwe districts in Dodoma and Mbeya regions, respectively. Structured questionnaires for households with both closed and open ended questions were used to collect socio-economic, institutional and livelihoods- 1 2 224 related information. Participatory rural appraisal (PRA) techniques, participant observation and focus group discussions (FGDs) were also employed. Results show that land and forests are the main livelihood assets in the two pilot project areas. Although REDD+ was generally accepted by most communities in the pilots, there were some levels of scepticism based on their past land use history. For example, the introduction of REDD+ in Kondoa faced rejection from some villages due to fears over land grabbing and exclusion from forest access. On the contrary, villages which depend solely on state-owned forests did not object to REDD+ as they are used to resource use exclusion mechanisms from such tenure systems.

    1.0. Introduction

    FERTILITY LEVELS AND PATTERNS AMONG HIV-INFECTED AND UN-INFECTED WOMEN IN KYELA DISTRICT A CASE STUDY FROM TANZANIA. 1.0. Introduction The fertility transition, seen in many parts of the world, has been slow to start in Sub-Saharan Africa, although recent evidence suggests a moderate of fertility in few countries (UNAIDS, 2003). It is not clear how the HIV epidemic will alter future levels of fertility and what impact it will have on the nature of fertility transition. The contribution of HIV/AIDS to the fertility transition is not currently evident due to the fact that. For four reasons. First, isolating the factor of HIV/AIDS from other factors of fertility is a complex process because it is not a proximate variable, but one of the contributors to several proximate determinants of fertility. Secondly, for the impact of the epidemic to be felt, the prevalence has to be high in the region of 20 percent and be sustainable for a long time, about a decade or longer. Thirdly, behavior factors may reduce fertility of women with symptoms of AIDS, but not those asymptomatic. Fourthly, as infant mortality increases, the need to replace dead children and produce more to ensure survival of some will challenge implementation of family planning programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa and perhaps increase fertility. Also, increasing HIV prevalence in the region will mean that HIV/AIDS programmes will compete for resources with family planning progrmmes, which would weaken the latter (UNAIDS, 2003). Recent studies in Sub Saharan Africa have shown that fertility is reduced among HIV infected women compare with uninfected women.
