  • Blue Swallow Survey Report November
    Blue Swallow Survey Report November 2013- March 2014 By Fadzai Matsvimbo (BirdLife Zimbabwe) with assistance from Tendai Wachi ( Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority) Background The Blue Swallow Hirundo atrocaerulea is one of Africa’s endemics, migrating between East and Central to Southern Africa where it breeds in the summer. These breeding grounds are in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Swaziland, Mozambique, Malawi, southern Tanzania and south eastern Zaire, Zambia. The bird winters in northern Uganda, north eastern Zaire and Western Kenya (Keith et al 1992).These intra-african migrants arrive the first week of September and depart in April In Zimbabwe (Snell 1963.).There are reports of the birds returning to their wintering grounds in May (Tree 1990). In Zimbabwe, the birds are restricted to the Eastern Highlands where they occur in the Afromontane grasslands. The Blue Swallow is distributed from Nyanga Highlands southwards through to Chimanimani Mountains and are known to breed from 1500m - 2200m (Irwin 1981). Montane grassland with streams forming shallow valleys and the streams periodically disappearing underground and forming shallow valleys is the preferred habitat (Snell 1979). Whilst birds have been have only ever been located in the Eastern Highlands there is a solitary record from then Salisbury now Harare (Brooke 1962). The Blue Swallow is a medium sized swallow of about 20- 25 cm in body length. The males and females can be told apart by the presence of the long tail retrices in the male. The tail streamers in the males measure twice as long as the females (Maclean 1993). The adults are a shiny blue-black with a black tail with blue green gloss and whitish feather shafts.

  • 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.

ALLISON GOEBEL (QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY, CANADA) DR. FRANK MATOSE (PLAAS, UWC) ii ABSTRACT An Agrarian History of the Mwenezi District, Zimbabwe, 1980-2004 Kudakwashe Manganga M. PHIL Thesis, Programme for Land and Agrarian Studies, Department of Government, University of the Western Cape. The thesis examines continuity and change in the agrarian history of the Mwenezi district, southern Zimbabwe since 1980. It analyses agrarian reforms, agrarian practices and development initiatives in the district and situates them in the localised livelihood strategies of different people within Dinhe Communal Area and Mangondi Resettlement Area in lieu of the Fast Track Land Reform Programme (FTLRP) since 2000. The thesis also examines the livelihood opportunities and challenges presented by the FTLRP to the inhabitants of Mwenezi. Land reform can be an opportunity that can help communities in drought prone districts like Mwenezi to attain food security and reduce dependence on food handouts from donor agencies and the government. The land reform presented the new farmers with multiple land use patterns and livelihood opportunities. In addition, the thesis locates the current programme in the context of previous post-colonial agrarian reforms in Mwenezi. It also emphasizes the importance of diversifying rural livelihood portfolios and argues for the establishment of smallholder irrigation schemes in Mwenezi using water from the Manyuchi dam, the fourth largest dam in Zimbabwe.

Field assessments were conducted in September 2012. Our results showed that fires are common in NNP with the majority of fires being caused by poaching activities. Moreover, anthropogenic activities, particularly agricultural activities, in the boundaries of the park also increased the fire occurrences.
