Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) A single Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) exists for each school subject. The CAPS for each subject details the minimum outcomes and standards of the learning process as well as assessment processes and procedures. For more information on the CAPS, please see Section 1 of the CAPS document for Geography. 2. Geography as a subject Aims Geography is an elective subject that focuses on the study of the human and the physical environments. There are different branches of Geography (for example, Physical Geography and Human Geography) but they all focus on the concept of space in a continuously changing environment. Geography in Grades 10 to 12 seeks to develop the following knowledge, skills and attitudes in the learners: • explaining and interpreting both physical and human geographical processes • describing and explaining the dynamic interrelationship between the physical and human worlds • developing knowledge about where places are and the nature of a range of different places at different scales • practising essential transferable skills – literacy, numeracy, oracy, graphicacy • promoting the use of new technologies, such as Information Communication Technology (ICT) and Geographical and Information Systems (GIS) • developing a commitment towards sustainable development • creating awareness and sensitivity for inequality in the world • fostering empathy, tolerance and fairness • making and justifying informed decisions and judgements about social and environmental issues. Geography topics The topics in the Geography CAPS (Grades 10–12) can be explored by focusing on the ‘big ideas’ of place, spatial processes, spatial distribution patterns, and the interaction between the human and natural environment. These, coupled with the posing of key questions, provide a launching pad for geographical explorations and investigations. The chart below shows the methods of enquiry used in Geography, together with key questions asked, and the concepts explored and investigated. METHOD OF ENQUIRY KEY QUESTIONS CONCEPTS Observation What is it? physical and What is it like? human processes, Who or what is awareness, perception, affected? characteristics, similarities and differences 2 section 1 • INTROductiON Geog Gr 12 TG.indb 2 6/11/13 7:13:32 PM METHOD OF ENQUIRY KEY QUESTIONS CONCEPTS Description Where does it occur? location, place, region, Why is it there? space, distribution, pattern, scale, spatial association Analysis and What happened or is interdependence, explanation happening? causes and processes Why did it happen? How is it changing? Evaluation and What are the effects? environmental prediction What is likely to impact, social impact, happen? interdependence, spatial interaction, spatial organisation, human–environment interaction, cause, process, time, behaviour, consequence, justice, quality of life, environmental quality, welfare, costs and benefits Geographical knowledge, skills and techniques should be taught in an integrated way in each of the following topics in Grade 12: • Climate and weather (regional and local weather systems) (Term 1) • Geomorphology (Term 1) • Settlement geography (rural and urban settlements) (Term 2) • Economic geography of South Africa (Term 3). For more information on Geography as a subject, please see Section 2 of the CAPS document. Time allocation Geography is allocated four hours of teaching time per week in Grades 10 to 12. Revision, consolidation and assessment (formal and informal) are included in this allocation. It is recommended that in addition to this, six hours of fieldwork be undertaken by the learners. Most of this will need to be completed

    Food Security Early Warning System Agromet Update 2011/2012 Agricultural Season Issue 05 Month: January Season: 2011-2012 Release date: 21-02-2012 Highlights • Tropical cyclones, depressions and torrential rains result in flooding in several countries in the eastern parts of the region, including Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, and South Africa • Dryness negatively affects Vuli season in northern Tanzania Regional Summary Rainfall was generally below normal in many parts of the region in the month of January and in early February. Although slightly below normal (yellow colours, Figure 1) in most areas, some areas including northern Tanzania, southern Mozambique, southern Zimbabwe, and eastern Botswana received significantly below normal rains. The dryness in northern Tanzania has reportedly affected the bimodal crops. Tropical Storm Dando brought heavy rainfall and flooding that affected southern Mozambique and northern South Africa in mid-January. This was followed by dryness in the next two dekads, which would potentially allow the flood waters to recede. Shortly after, northern Mozambique and Madagascar were affected by Tropical Cyclone Funso, resulting in Figure 1. Rainfall for 1 Jan – 10 Feb 2012 as percent of average extensive flooding in some areas. Southern Malawi was also affected by flooding due to continuous heavy rains that were received since late January. The Malawi Department of Disaster Management Affairs indicated that over 5,000 households have been affected by flooding so far this season, and some cropped area had been lost. In Mozambique, a multi-sectoral assessment in February estimated that almost 33,500 households had been affected by the flooding, and Mozambique’s Ministry of Agriculture indicated that 123,000 ha of planted area had been affected, of which 6000 ha were completely lost.

A case study in association management, day-to-day interactions and livelihood strategies MSc. Thesis by Ernst Sonneveld February 2012 Irrigation and Water Engineering Group i ii Sugarcane contract farming with smallholders in Xinavane, Mozambique: Neo-colonialism or development opportunity? A case study in association management, day-to-day interactions and livelihood strategies Master thesis Irrigation and Water Engineering submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master of Science in International Land and Water Management at Wageningen University, the Netherlands Ernst Sonneveld February 2012 Supervisors: Dr.ir. Alex Bolding Dr.ir. Gert Jan Veldwisch Irrigation and Water Engineering Group Centre for Water and Climate Wageningen University The Netherlands www.iwe.wur.nl/uk iii iv ABSTRACT Rising food prices and the demand for fossil fuel alternatives have resulted in large scale land acquisitions by foreign investors in developing countries. Especially Mozambique has become an interesting partner, given its favourable trade agreements, its cheap labour reserve and its enormous agricultural potential. As a result, colonial estates have been rehabilitated and even extended, in particular by the sugar sector. With stimulating measures from the government, the Açucareira de Xinavane, now owned by South African’s largest sugar producer is turning to contract farming as a means to involve the local population while extending their agricultural potential and increasing Mozambican’s sugar exports. Contract farming can be regarded as a way to lift the poor out of poverty by providing them with loans, infrastructural (irrigation technology) and know-how support and income security, but this does not happen unconditionally.
