Though a continuous stream of Congolese refugees have found international protection in Zambia for decades, the recent political instability has resulted in a humanitarian crisis that has led to an increased number of persons fleeing to neighboring countries, including Zambia.

  • Bridging the Gap Between Household Demand and Community Water Supply?
    KUMAMARU, SMOUT & ODHIAMBO 35th WEDC International Conference, Loughborough, UK, 2011 THE FUTURE OF WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE: INNOVATION, ADAPTATION AND ENGAGEMENT IN A CHANGING WORLD Self-supply: bridging the gap between household demand and community water supply? K. Kumamaru, I. Smout & F. Odhiambo REFEREED PAPER 1089 This paper discusses rural water supply at grassroots level, and challenges the assumption that a community water supply facility is the only solution for rural water supply, especially in sparsely populated areas. A comparison is made between two water service models from case studies in Zambia: those with conventional communal water supplies and Self Supply models. Findings revealed that a Self Supply service could significantly reduce faecal contamination risk in water quality and deliver higher per capita water use and better convenience of access than conventional supply, yet its reliability regarding water source dry up requires to be monitored. A conventional community-based water service may not fulfil the households’ demand due to the nature of community ownership and the distance from household to a community water facility. Since the underlying service delivery models are different, an integrated approach is required for a rural water supply strategy and national policy. Introduction The priority for sustainable rural water supplies has changed from „providing the physical systems‟ to „delivering the water service‟ over the past few decades. The water sector generates a lot of analyses on costs, designs, post-construction supports, management models, efficiency and sustainability of supplies but these are mostly for conventional communal supply service models (Sutton 2010b). The term „community‟ has no single definition but varies in the context of different view points from the place in which people live, to groups of population, culture, religion and history.

  • The Case of Honey in Zambia the Case
    Small-scale with outstanding economic potential enterprises woodland-based In some countries, honey and beeswax are so important the term ‘beekeeping’ appears in the titles of some government ministries. The significance of honey and beeswax in local livelihoods is nowhere more apparent than in the Miombo woodlands of southern Africa. Bee-keeping is a vital source of income for many poor and remote rural producers throughout the Miombo, often because it is highly suited to small scale farming. This detailed Non-Timber Forest Product study from Zambia examines beekeeping’s livelihood role from a range of perspectives, including market factors, production methods and measures for harnessing beekeeping to help reduce poverty.

  • The Political Ecology of a Small-Scale Fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia
    Managing inequality: the political ecology of a small-scale fishery, Mweru-Luapula, Zambia Bram Verelst1 University of Ghent, Belgium 1. Introduction Many scholars assume that most small-scale inland fishery communities represent the poorest sections of rural societies (Béné 2003). This claim is often argued through what Béné calls the "old paradigm" on poverty in inland fisheries: poverty is associated with natural factors including the ecological effects of high catch rates and exploitation levels. The view of inland fishing communities as the "poorest of the poorest" does not imply directly that fishing automatically lead to poverty, but it is linked to the nature of many inland fishing areas as a common-pool resources (CPRs) (Gordon 2005). According to this paradigm, a common and open-access property resource is incapable of sustaining increasing exploitation levels caused by horizontal effects (e.g. population pressure) and vertical intensification (e.g. technological improvement) (Brox 1990 in Jul-Larsen et al. 2003; Kapasa, Malasha and Wilson 2005). The gradual exhaustion of fisheries due to "Malthusian" overfishing was identified by H. Scott Gordon (1954) and called the "tragedy of the commons" by Hardin (1968). This influential model explains that whenever individuals use a resource in common – without any form of regulation or restriction – this will inevitably lead to its environmental degradation. This link is exemplified by the prisoner's dilemma game where individual actors, by rationally following their self-interest, will eventually deplete a shared resource, which is ultimately against the interest of each actor involved (Haller and Merten 2008; Ostrom 1990). Summarized, the model argues that the open-access nature of a fisheries resource will unavoidably lead to its overexploitation (Kraan 2011).

During this reporting period, MCSP Zambia: Supported MOH to conduct a data quality assessment to identify and address data quality gaps that some districts have been recording due to inability to correctly interpret data elements in HMIS tools. Some districts lacked the revised registers as well. Collected data on Phase 2 of the TA study looking at the acceptability, level of influence, and results of MCSP’s TA model that supports the G2G granting mechanism. Data collection included interviews with 53 MOH staff from 4 provinces, 20 districts and 20 health facilities. Supported 16 districts in mentorship and service quality assessment (SQA) to support planning and decision-making. In the period under review, MCSP established that multidisciplinary mentorship teams in 10 districts in Luapula Province were functional. Continued with the eIMCI/EPI course orientation in all Provinces. By the end of the quarter under review, in Muchinga 26 HCWs had completed the course, increasing the number of HCWs who improved EPI knowledge and can manage children using IMNCI Guidelines. In Southern Province, 19 mentors from 4 districts were oriented through the electronic EPI/IMNCI interactive learning and had the software installed on their computers.
