Zimbabwe: Tropical Cyclone Idai Baseline Assessment - Round 1 Chimanimani, Chipinge, Mutare, Buhera Districts ZIMBABWE: TROPICAL CYCLONE IDAI BASELINE ASSESSMENT - ROUND 1 CHIMANIMANI, CHIPINGE, MUTARE, BUHERA DISTRICTS 11 APRIL 2019 OVERVIEW Tropical Cyclone Idai made landfall in Zimbabwe, on the 15 of March 2019. From the 29th of March to the 7th of April 2019 IOM, in close coordination with the Government of Zimbabwe, UN Women and Caritas Zimbabwe, conducted baselines assessments in Chimanimani, Chipinge, Mutare and Buhera districts. DEMOGRAPHICS Figure 1 — District population, affected population and IDPs by districts 59,125 IDPs (12,249 households)* were reported across the 4 affected districts. The largest number of IDPs have been identified in Chipinge (36,347 IDPs), followed by Chimanimani (14,016 IDPs), Buhera (4,469 IDPs) and Mutare (4,293 IDPs). The high number of IDPs in Chipinge can be explained by the fact that the district has the highest population. However, Chimanini is the district that is worst affected by the cyclone. *Due to inaccessibility, data from some of the wards were collected through phone interviews with districts officials.

  • Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and the Indigenous Communities of South East Zimbabwe, 1934-2008
    Living on the fringes of a protected area: Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and the indigenous communities of South East Zimbabwe, 1934-2008 by Baxter Tavuyanago A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the Department of Historical and Heritage Studies at the UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR A. S. MLAMBO July 2016 i © University of Pretoria Abstract This study examines the responses of communities of south-eastern Zimbabwe to their eviction from the Gonarezhou National Park (GNP) and their forced settlement in the peripheral areas of the park. The thesis establishes that prior to their eviction, the people had created a utilitarian relationship with their fauna and flora which allowed responsible reaping of the forest’s products. It reveals that the introduction of a people-out conservation mantra forced the affected communities to become poachers, to emigrate from south-eastern Zimbabwe in large numbers to South Africa for greener pastures and, to fervently join militant politics of the 1960s and 1970s. These forms of protests put them at loggerheads with the colonial government. The study reveals that the independence government’s position on the inviolability of the country’s parks put the people and state on yet another level of confrontation as the communities had anticipated the restitution of their ancestral lands. The new government’s attempt to buy their favours by engaging them in a joint wildlife management project called CAMPFIRE only slightly relieved the pain. The land reform programme of the early 2000s, again, enabled them to recover a small part of their old Gonarezhou homeland.

    SOUTHERN AFRICA Flash Update No.6 – Tropical Cyclone Eloise As of 23 January 2021 HIGHLIGHTS • Tropical Cyclone Eloise made landfall near Beira City in Sofala Province, Mozambique in the early hours of 23 January. • After landfall, Eloise downgraded to a Moderate Tropical Storm bringing heavy rains and strong winds in Sofala Province. • The most immediate concern is the potential for significant flooding, including in the days ahead. • Eloise is expected to continue to move inland, bringing heavy rains to southern Zimbabwe, northern South Africa and far eastern Botswana. SITUATION OVERVIEW Tropical Cyclone Eloise made landfall in central Mozambique on 23 January at around 2 a.m., near the coastal city of Beira, with winds of 140 km/h and gusts up to 160 km/h, according to Mozambique’s National Institute of Meteorology (INAM). Beira received 250 mm of rain in 24 hours, according to INAM, while other areas that were flooded ahead of Eloise’s landfall—including Buzi and Nhamatanda—also received additional heavy rains. After landfall, Eloise downgraded to a moderate tropical storm with a maximum wind speed of 83 km/hr. The weather system continues to move in a westerly direction, bringing high amounts of rainfall in its wake, according to the South Africa Weather Services (SAWS). Luisa Meque, President of Mozambique’s National Institute for Disaster Risk Management and Reduction (INGD), has noted that it is too early to quantify the extent and scale of the destruction, but that the damage in Beira appears to be mild. Electricity was down in parts of the city and communications networks were damaged.
