This section is only concerned with tsetse fly and sleeping sickness. This does not imply that other sicknesses of endemic and serious nature do not occur in the district. Cases of malaria are frequent - ca. 200 are admitted to the hospital per year of which about 1% are deadly. Aside from these, many malaria cases are handled at the local rural health centres. TB, pneumonia, bilharzia, and particularly measles and whooping cough among children, are diseases which occur frequently. 8) Kasempa district inhabits entirely a Kaonde speaking population, except in Kasempa township where a number of inhabitants, mainly government personnel, lives from all over the country. The new Kizela District is inhabited by a Kaonde, Chokwe, Luchazi, and Luvale-speaking population. Kaonde is also termed Kikaonde, with the prefix "kin indicating the language, and as Bakaonde, indicating the population (Wright 1977). In older publications in French, the Kaonde are re­ ferred to as Bakahonde, Kahonde and Kawonde (Verhulpen 1936; Boone 1961). Here, as is now usual, Kaonde refers to the population group as well as the language. 9) On the basis of archaeological excavations in Zambia, especially during the last two decades, main pottery-cultural groups have been further defined for Zambia (Phillipson 1974; Roberts 1976). Three cultural traditions are generally de­ lineated: the Luangwa tradition of a relatively recent (since ca. 1500) group of migrants to Zambia, the Lungwebungu tradition and the Tonga diaspora tradition. The last two groups have been settled in Zambia for a longer period. There is a clear difference between the pottery of these groups as well as the method of manufacture. Luangwa pottery is made by the women while the men make the pottery of the other two groups. The Kaonde area is not considered in the above publications because of lack of archaeological data and in­ formation about present-day Kaonde pottery. The most western border of the Luangwa tradition is considered to be the Lamba area, and the most eastern border of the Lungwebungu tradi­ tion extends to the Lunda, Ndembu and Luvale (Roberts 1976, map p.70). Roberts (1976,71) assumes that 'the culture of the Kaonde area has long developed relatively independently from those of the surrounding regions'. This is correct to a certain extent. On the basis of the (scarce) information known to me about the pottery made by the Kaonde, one can conclude that stylistically, and taking into consideration that pottery-making is done by Kaonde women, the pottery is clearly related to the Luangwa tradition. Also in this respect the Kaonde can be reckoned to be cUlturally related the most to the eastern neighbouring groups e.g. the Lamba, Bemba, etc. 10} Frequent village movements are not very detrimental to banana plants. After some years old banana stools will become in­ fected by eelworm (nematodes) and a new site for the plants is a necessity. At a new village site, young banana plants will give fruits within about a year and sometimes villagers go to the old village site to collect fruits. -235­ Notes to Chapter 1, pp.39-44 11) A village and population enumeration carried out by the author in the Kalasa-village group in 1968 gives a figure of 10% polygamous marriages.

  • The Case of Honey in Zambia the Case
    Small-scale with outstanding economic potential enterprises woodland-based In some countries, honey and beeswax are so important the term ‘beekeeping’ appears in the titles of some government ministries. The significance of honey and beeswax in local livelihoods is nowhere more apparent than in the Miombo woodlands of southern Africa. Bee-keeping is a vital source of income for many poor and remote rural producers throughout the Miombo, often because it is highly suited to small scale farming. This detailed Non-Timber Forest Product study from Zambia examines beekeeping’s livelihood role from a range of perspectives, including market factors, production methods and measures for harnessing beekeeping to help reduce poverty.

The Opportunity Costs of REDD+ in Zambia FINAL REPORT Saviour Chishimba (Lead Author) Monica Chundama Akakandelwa Akakandelwa 2014 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The directors and staff of Even Ha’Ezer Consult Limited are indebted to Mr. Deuteronomy Kasaro and Mrs Maurine Mwale of the Forestry Department and Dr. Julian Fox and Ms. Celestina Lwatula of the UN-REDD Programme at FAO for providing the necessary logistical support, without which, the assignment would not have been completed. Saviour Chishimba Chief Executive Officer Even Ha’Ezer Consult Limited EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION Preserving forests entails foregoing the benefits that would have been generated by alternative deforesting and forest degrading land uses (for example agriculture, charcoal burning, etc). The difference between the benefits provided by the forest and those that would have been provided by the alternative land use is the opportunity cost of avoiding deforestation and forest degradation. Foregoing the economic benefits that come with deforestation and forest degradation will only make sense to policy makers and the general population if alternatives that are advanced under REDD+ offer sufficient sustainable benefits.

  • Ecological Adversity and Food Supply in Northwest Zambia
    Working Paper on Social-Ecological Resilience Series No. 2009-012 Ecological Adversity and Food Supply in Northwest Zambia By Chewe M.

Chabatama Department of History, University of Zambia E-mail: [email protected] December 2009 Vulnerability and Resilience of Social-Ecological Systems RIHN Research Project E-04 Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (RIHN) Inter-University Research Institute Corporation, National Institutes for the Humanities 大学共同利用機関法人 人間文化研究機構 総合地球環境学研究所 Abstract Most agricultural and food security studies on Zambia have concentrated on maize and other cash crops, and surplus maize producing provinces such as Central, Lusaka and Southern. Non-cash crops such as cassava, millet and sorghum, which were staple food crops for the people of northwest Zambia, have strangely been ignored by most researchers. As a marginal maize producer, North-Western province has been ignored, condemned and marginalized by both scholars and state officials, respectively. However, this paper is cognizant of the stark fact that cassava, finger and bulrush millet, sorghum and sweet potatoes have provided and continue to provide food security for the indigenous people of Northwest Zambia. North-Western province possesses enormous agricultural and economic potential. This paper examines food supply in the North-Western province of Zambia in the midst of adverse ecological conditions.

  • (2000:45), Lufwanyama District Has the Highest Level of Adult Illiteracy in the Copperbelt Province
    1.0 CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION According to the Central Statistical Office (2000:45), Lufwanyama District has the highest level of adult illiteracy In the Copperbelt Province. This situation has immensely contributed to the underdevelopment of the district. It is this scenario that prompted the researcher to investigate factors which were affecting the provision of adult literacy. This was done with the view that adult literacy would invaluably enable adult illiterates to pursue adult education. Adult literacy is thus the beginning point and gateway to adult education which is defined as a …process whereby persons who no longer attend school on a regular and full-time basis… undertake sequential and organized activities with the conscious intention of bringing about changes in information, knowledge, understanding or skills, appreciation and attitudes; or for the purpose of identifying and solving personal or community problems” (Lowe, 1970:3). Therefore, to give direction to this study, this chapter opens by presenting the background of the problem, statement of the problem, purpose of the study, objectives of the study and research questions. Other issues discussed in the chapter include the significance and rationale of the study, limitations encountered, operational definitions, organization of the report and a summary of the chapter. ORGANISATION OF THE REST OF THE REPORT Chapter one has covered the following aspects: background to the study, statement of the problem, purpose of the study, objectives and research questions, significance of the study, limitations of the study, operational definition of terms, abbreviations, organization and summary. Chapter Two of the report contains the literature review, which has been sub-sectioned as introduction, literacy and its importance, origins and development of Adult Literacy in Zambia and its deficiencies, public perception of Adult Literacy and summary of the chapter.

  • The Black Rhinoceros in Zambia W
    The Black Rhinoceros in Zambia W. F. H. Ansell In Zambia's main wildlife areas, such as the Luangwa valley and the Kafue national park, the black rhinoceros populations are now stable and in some places even increasing—a striking reversal of the pre-war situation. Provided effective control can be main- tained by the Department of Game and Fisheries, the author, who is a member of the department, suggests that there is no reason why they should not continue to thrive. The black rhinoceros Diceros bicornis is the only rhinoceros species definitely recorded from Zambia, though the white rhinoceros Cerato- therium simum may once have occurred between the Zambezi and Mashi rivers.* Pitman 1934, Grimwood, Benson & Ansell 1958, Ansell I 959bJ i960, and Sidney 1965 =69-72, dealt with the past and present status of the species in Zambia. This paper, written in response to an IUCN enquiry, amplifies and brings up to date the previous accounts, and in general follows the outline of the IUCN questionnaire. The re- cent situation has been assessed from data in the records of the Game and Fisheries Department and information from departmental col- leagues; where no other authority is cited these are the sources. I have also had access to certain of the old District Note Books, now in the National Archives, Lusaka. General Distribution The map shows present and former distribution, plotted by the i° x £° square locus, corresponding to the 1: 50,000 map sheet. It is clear that many gaps in both former and present occurrences are due to lack of records.
