EDITORIAL Congratulations President Mugabe n 21 July, 1988, His Excellency Comrade Robert Mugabe, President of our young Republic was named as the winner of the Second Annual Africa prize for Leadership forthe Sustainable End of Hunger. The announcement was made by Mr. Bradford Morse, Chairman of Africa Prize jury, at a global teleconference originating from Lusaka, Zambia and from UN headquarters in New York. More than 3 000 Hunger Project participants and other supporters of the future of Africa assembled at 128 sites in 18 countries to participate in the announcement. The two originating sites were linked by two-way television, which was then distributed across North America, by satellite transmission and learning channel, cable televisions and premier educational network. The programme was seen live across Zambia on the Zambia National Broadcasting Corporation. At other sites, from Auckland to Geneva, from New Delhi to Munich, from Nairobi and Harare to Sydney and London, groups participated in the largest telephone conference call in Hunger Project history. President Mugabe was cited in Mr. Morse's announcement for bringing peace and prosperity in Zimbabwe, and for establishing policies which have made Zimbabwean agriculture "one of the most impressive success stories on the continent." This international recognition of President Mugabe's leadership talents is well deserved. Under his

  • Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (Zimvac) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword
    Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword The Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) under the coordination of the Food and Nutrition Council, successfully undertook the 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment (RLA), the 20th since its inception. ZimVAC is a technical advisory committee comprised of representatives from Government, Development Partners, UN, NGOs, Technical Agencies and the Academia. In its endeavour to ‘promote and ensure adequate food and nutrition security for all people at all times’, the Government of Zimbabwe has continued to exhibit its commitment for reducing food and nutrition insecurity, poverty and improving livelihoods amongst the vulnerable populations in Zimbabwe through operationalization of Commitment 6 of the Food and Nutrition Security Policy (FNSP). As the country is grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, this assessment was undertaken at an opportune time as there was an increasing need to urgently collect up to date food and nutrition security data to effectively support the planning and implementation of actions in a timely and responsive manner. The findings from the RLA will also go a long way in providing local insights into the full impact of the Corona virus on food and nutrition security in this country as the spread of the virus continues to evolve differently by continent and by country. In addition, the data will be of great use to Government, development partners, programme planners and communities in the recovery from the pandemic, providing timely information and helping monitor, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and any similar future pandemics. Thematic areas covered in this report include the following: education, food and income sources, income levels, expenditure patterns and food security, COVID-19 and gender based violence, among other issues.

The relationship between the names and the entities they refer to has largely been proved to be significant either as commentaries on the personality traits of the people or characteristics of the animals they refer to or as an expression of the aspirations, attitude or wishes of the namers. Notwithstanding the existence of these studies, studies that focus on the naming of special institutions for people living with disabilities in Zimbabwe are almost non-existent. Focusing on the naming of institutions established specifically for people living with disabilities and taking an ethnographic approach in which interviews and website analysis were carried out, this study demonstrates that special institutions have been named either after prominent personalities in the specific area of disability, after place names in which the institutions are situated and to reflect societal aspirations and attitudes. Most significant was the finding that the names of the institutions relate closely to societal ideology and attitudes towards disability.

    Country Advice Zimbabwe Zimbabwe ZWE38611 Farmers Bikita/Masvingo MDC/ZANU-PF 3 May 2011 1. Is there any country information about attacks on farmers in the in Bikita in the district of Masvingo, in April 2008? Sources indicate that attacks took place on farmers in the Masvingo district during April 2008. These attacks coincided with national elections when tension between government and opposition supporters was extremely high. According to a Times Online report from 8 April he farm invasions began on Saturday in Masvingo province, about 160 miles south of the capital, Harare. Five farmers were forced to flee or were trapped inside their homes by drunken mo 1 The same report stated that two farm owners had been forced from their land for voting for the MDC, and farmers and their staff were beaten and threatened with further violence.2 The MDC claimed on 18 April 2008 that the violence started almost immediately after the elections on March 29, and claimed some of its supporters in remote rural areas were homeless after their homes were looted and burnt down by the suspected ZANU PF (Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front) activists.3 The US Ambassador to Zimbabwe James McGee on 18 April commented on the violence taking place through Zimbabwe: There is growing evidence that rural communities are being punished for their support for opposition candidates. We have disturbing and confirmed reports of threats, beatings, abductions, burning of homes and even murder, from many parts of the country.4 These activities formed part of Operation Mavhoterapapi (who/where did you vote), a campaign designed to intimidate MDC supporters, and centred on rural areas of Zimbabwe.
