  • Social and Environmental Risk Factors for Trachoma: a Mixed Methods Approach in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia
    Social and Environmental Risk Factors for Trachoma: A Mixed Methods Approach in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia by Candace Vinke B.Sc., University of Calgary, 2005 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Geography Candace Vinke, 2010 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Social and Environmental Risk Factors for Trachoma: A Mixed Methods Approach in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia by Candace Vinke Bachelor of Science, University of Calgary, 2005 Supervisory Committee Dr. Stephen Lonergan, Supervisor (Department of Geography) Dr. Denise Cloutier-Fisher, Departmental Member (Department of Geography) Dr. Eric Roth, Outside Member (Department of Anthropology) iii Dr. Stephen Lonergan, Supervisor (Department of Geography) Dr. Denise Cloutier-Fisher, Departmental Member (Department of Geography) Dr. Eric Roth, Outside Member (Department of Anthropology) Abstract Trachoma is a major public health concern throughout Ethiopia and other parts of the developing world. Control efforts have largely focused on the antibiotic treatment (A) and surgery (S) components of the World Health Organizations (WHO) SAFE strategy. Although S and A efforts have had a positive impact, this approach may not be sustainable. Consequently, this study focuses on the latter two primary prevention components; facial cleanliness (F) and environmental improvement (E). A geographical approach is employed to gain a better understanding of how culture, economics, environment and behaviour are interacting to determine disease risk in the Kembata Zone of Southern Ethiopia.

    Global Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Vol.8, No. 9, pp.25-35, October 2020 Published by ECRTD-UK Print ISSN: 2052-6350(Print), Online ISSN: 2052-6369(Online) THE PREVALENCE OF FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION (FGM): THE PROSPECTIVE FORM OF ANGACHA DISTRICT KEMBATA COMMUNITY; SNNPRS, ETHIOPIA Asebe Awol Lecturer and researcher in Dilla University Cell phone +251912058469/0926123531 ABSTRACT: Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is recognized internationally as a violation of human rights of girls and women constituting an extreme form of gender discrimination with documented health consequences. The study aimed to assess the prevalence of FGM practice in the study area. A community based cross-sectional study design was applied. Both quantitative and qualitative study methods are employed. A total of 278 women at reproductive age (15-49) are sampled for the study from six randomly selected kebeles of Angacha woreda. The survey data was analyzed by SPSS software version 20. Descriptive statistics such as mean, percentage, and frequency are used for analyzing data. Qualitative data is analyzed thematically and the result is presented in narration. From study participants, 92.4% are practiced FGM, and 77.7% of are undergone themselves. The practice is undergone by health professionals at night time. Traditions, reproductive and community roles, norms, and values regarding gender equality are the major push factors for the continuation of the FGM. Mothers are the primary supporters of the practice in the family. Based on the findings, it was concluded that, the prevalence of FGM is high in the study area. Attitudinal transformation is needed through a cooperative and collaborative campaign of all stakeholders in the entire community by arranging trainings, workshops, and media to minimize the prevalence of female genital mutilation.

In Ethiopia, 10% of babies born preterm each year. Preterm birth is the major cause of neonatal deaths next to pneumonia and it is a substantial cause of long-term problems in survivors. The objective of the study was to identify key determinants of preterm birth in Kembata Tembaro, Southern Ethiopia, 2019. Method: Institutional unmatched case-control study design was employed on 310 mothers who gave full- term births as control and 104 mothers with preterm births as cases from October 1, 2018, to February 1, 2019. The study participants were selected using a consecutive sampling method. SPSS version 20 was used to analyze the data. Result: A total of 104 (25.1%) cases and 310 (74.9%) controls were included in the analysis with a 100% response rate. Factors such as rural resident, AOR =2.7; 95% CI [1.3, 5.6], uneducated, AOR= 2.6; 95% CI [1.3, 5.2], ANC visits <4 times, AOR =5.5; 95% CI [2.1, 14.3], substance abuse, AOR =3.5; 95% CI [1.1, 10.5], MUAC <23cm, AOR= 7.2; 95%CI [3.3, 15.7], pregnancy-induced hypertension, AOR =8.9; 95%CI[1.2, 69], history of abortion, AOR =11.1; 95%CI[1.2, 105], FCS <=21.4, AOR =20.7; 95%CI[10, 42.2], and low birth weight, AOR= 20.2; 95%CI[10.5, 39] were identied as signicant determinants of preterm birth.

O. Box 419 Dilla, Ethiopia 2, Hawassa University, Wondo Genet collage of Forestry and Natural Resources P. O. Box 128 Shashemene, Ethiopia Abstract Ethiopia has a variety of fruit crops grown in different agro ecological Zones by small farmers, mainly as a source of income as well as food. The nature of the product on one hand and the lack of market system on the other hand have resulted in low producers’ price and hence low benefit by the producers. This study was carried out to analyse the market chain of agroforestry products such as mango, avocado and banana. Two kebeles were selected based on the presence of fruit production. Data was collected from 140 mango, banana and avocado producing households, 7 local collectors and 13 retailers through structured interview, focus group discussion, key informant interviews, market assessment as well as field observation. Structure, Conduct and Performance (SCP) approach was used to analyze avocado, banana and mango market also OLS (Multiple linear regression model) was used to analyzed factors that determine banana, mango and avocado market supply of the producers in the area.

It is eminent that livestock products and by-products in the form of meat, milk, honey, eggs, cheese, and butter Based Oxen Fattening in supply etc. provide valuable protein that contributes to improve the Kachabira and Lemu Districts, nutritional status of the peoples of the country [1]. The livestock population of the country was estimated to be about 60 million cattle, Southern Ethiopia 31.3 million sheep, 32.74 million goats, 1.42 million camels in the sedentary areas of the country and poultry estimated to be about 56.87 million [1].

  • Prevalence of Bovine Trypanosomiases in Tembaro District, Kembata Tembaro Zone, Southern Ethiopia
    Global Journal of Science Frontier Research: D Agriculture and Veterinary Volume 19 Issue 3 Version 1.0 Year 2019 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Online ISSN: 2249-4626 & Print ISSN: 0975-5896 Prevalence of Bovine Trypanosomiases in Tembaro District, Kembata Tembaro Zone, Southern Ethiopia By Fitsum Tessema, Addisu Jimma & Amelmal Alemayehu Southern Agricultural Research Institute Abstract- A cross-sectional study of bovine Trypanosomiases was conducted in Tembaro district of Kembata tembaro zone, Southern Ethiopia. A total of 800 cattle, 400 in the dry and 400 in the wet seasons were randomly selected and examined for Trypanosomiases. The overall prevalence of the disease was 10.9%. T. congolense and T. vivax were detected from buffy coat positive samples. Among the total of 87 trypanosome infections detected in both seasons, 79.3% (69) were due to T. congolense; 18.4 % (16) were due to T. vivax and the rest 2.5% were mixed infections. Age and season of the year were not significantly associated (P>0.05) with the disease. A significant association of the disease was observed (P<0.05) between body condition score and sex. The packed cell volume of trypanosome infected cattle was lower compared with non-infected. According to this study, Bovine Trypanosomiases was the major disease of cattle in the study area. Therefore control of bovine Trypanosomiases should be enhanced systematically to improve livestock production in the area. Keywords: bovine trypanosomiases, prevalence, tembaro, southern ethiopia.
