The study „s aim generally was to assess the community responsibilities in supporting orphans. It intended specifically to examine the systems used by the community to support orphans, and determine types of support provided to orphans by the community as well as identify the roles of the community in supporting them. It has also used a sample of 90 respondents to represent a total population of 3,527 people. The study used both qualitative and quantitative approach. Moreover, observations and interviews methods were used in data collection. Both Probability and Non probability sampling techniques were used in selecting the study sample. Under probability sampling, simple random and stratified sampling was employed, while under non probability, sampling purposive sampling technique was used. The collected data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science Research (SPSS) programme. The findings from the study have indicated that Village Most Vulnerable Children Committee (VMVCC) was the mechanism used to manage the orphans in the study area. However, the government tools were used to identify and record information of the orphans. Moreover, communities were not involved in the process of developing any action plans concerning OVC. Furthermore social protection service was offered more by the community members. Female genital mutilation, abandonment, child labor, and early/forced marriage are the dominant violations existed in the study area. It is recommended that government should apply public private partnership to work together (efficiently and effectively) so as to avoid duplication in serving orphans. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS CERTIFICATION ................................................................................................................................ i DECLARATION AND COPYRIGHT ......................................................................................... iv DEDICATION ................................................................................................................................... vii LIST OF TABLE .............................................................................................................................. xiii LIST OF FUGURES........................................................................................................................ xiv LIST OF ABREVIATIONS ............................................................................................................ xv CHAPTER ONE .................................................................................................................................. 1 INTRODUCTION ............................................................................................................................... 1 1.0 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Background to the problem ........................................................................................................ 1 1.2 Statement of the Problem ............................................................................................................ 5 1.3 Objective of the Study ................................................................................................................. 6 1.3.1 General Objective...................................................................................................................... 6 1.3.2 Specific Objectives ................................................................................................................... 6 1.4 Research Question ........................................................................................................................ 6 1.5 Significance of the study ............................................................................................................. 6 1.6 Scope of the study ........................................................................................................................ 7 1.7 Limitation of the study ................................................................................................................ 7 CHAPTER TWO ................................................................................................................................. 8 LITERATURE REVIEWS ................................................................................................................ 8 2.0 Introduction ................................................................................................................................. 8 2.1 Definition of key terms and concepts ....................................................................................... 8 2.1.1 Orphan ......................................................................................................................................... 8 2.1.2 Orphan vulnerable children ..................................................................................................... 8 2.1.3 Responsibilities .......................................................................................................................... 9 2.1.4 Stigmatization ............................................................................................................. 9 2.1.5 Social protection .......................................................................................................................

  • Knowledge of Obstetric Danger Signs Among Recently-Delivered Women in Chamwino District, Tanzania: a Cross-Sectional Study Deogratius Bintabara1,2*, Rose N
    Bintabara et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2017) 17:276 DOI 10.1186/s12884-017-1469-3 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Knowledge of obstetric danger signs among recently-delivered women in Chamwino district, Tanzania: a cross-sectional study Deogratius Bintabara1,2*, Rose N. M. Mpembeni3 and Ahmed Abade Mohamed4 Abstract Background: Low knowledge of danger signs has been shown to delay seeking obstetric care which leads to high maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. In Tanzania about half of pregnant women are informed about obstetric danger signs during antenatal care, but the proportion of those who have full knowledge of these obstetric danger signs is not known. This study assessed the knowledge of obstetric danger signs and its associated factors among recently-delivered women in Chamwino District, Tanzania. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in January 2014 in Chamwino District, Tanzania. A woman was considered knowledgeable if she spontaneously mentioned at least five danger signs in any of the three phases of childbirth (pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum) with at least one in each phase. Multistage cluster sampling was used to recruit study participants. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were conducted. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to control for confounding and other important covariates. Results: A total of 428 women were interviewed. The median age (IQR) was 26.5 (22–33) years. Only 25.2% of respondents were knowledgeable about obstetric danger signs during pregnancy, childbirth/labour and postpartum. Significant explanatory variables of being knowledgeable about obstetric danger signs were found to be maternal education (AOR = 1.96; 95% CI: 1.01, 3.82), maternal occupation (AOR = 2.23; 95% CI; 1.10, 4.52), spouse occupation (AOR = 2.10; 95% CI: 1.02, 4.32) and counseling on danger signs (AOR = 3.42; 95% CI: 1.36, 8.62) after controlling for the clustering effect, confounding and important covariates.

The study employed secondary data from Dodoma region annual reports on agriculture production for 2015/2016 and data from the Tanzania National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) published reports. Descriptive statistics was used in data analysis in which descriptive features such as histogram, bar charts and tables were used in presenting the study findings. The study findings reveal that paddy, cassava, sweet potatoes and pulses have higher productivity in small planted areas posing great opportunity for investment in such crops. Similarly, under cash crops grapes, simsim, groundnuts and sunflower indicated to have high productivity which calls for investment. In the same line, vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes, Chinese, onions, eggplant and carrot indicated higher productivity. The study further found that sugarcane, pawpaw and banana had high productivity, suggesting suitable investment opportunities in horticulture. Lastly the study recommends modern farming technologies including the use of well-developed irrigation systems and agricultural implements should be adopted.
