ZESN Book Final 2 MASVINGO PROVINCE Masvingo province comprises mainly of rural provinces. The Karanga people dominate in this area. The people rely mainly on subsistence agriculture. People from Masvingo are well known for being an educated people, as the province has a large number of mission schools. As a result most families were cushioned from economic hardships by children who would send remittances to their rural homes to their parents. This source of income has been disrupted as many working children fail to send remittances back home due to economic hardships. 117 SUPPORTING DEMOCRATIC ELECTIONS HARAREGUTU WESTNORTH Constituency ProfileConstituency Profile Constituency Profile GUTU NORTH Gutu West is made of Serima, Chartsworth, invasions were experienced in 2000 and many Gutu North is comprised of Mahombedze, the constituency live on subsistence farming, Denhere, Godzvi and Mashaike.

  • Rise of an Earthkeeping Movement CHAPTER 1
    PART 1 Rise of an earthkeeping movement CHAPTER 1 Waiting for the rain January 1992. Fleeces of white cloud in shimmering pale blue skies - that is all we have. Halfway into the so-called rainy season there is noth­ ing else. Here in Masvingo those white rainless clouds, barren omens of death, shroud from a distance the mud puddle of Lake Kyle, all that remains of the jewel of our province. Have even the symbols switched in the lament of a dying land? Does the whiteness of cloud now evoke thoughts of death, not purity, and the blackness of rain cloud signify life? Or do black and white, the colours of African spirit mediums, still symbolise ancestral protection - a protection apparently lost as grass and leaves shrivel in the heat? For ten years we in Masvingo Province have been waiting for a really good season to break the chronic drought. Hot just scattered showers, as we have had, to fill a few farm dams and nurture only some of the maize crops in outlying districts. Ho! Torrential rains as we have last seen in the mid-seventies; rains that swell the rivers countrywide, fill the lakes, blot out the sun for two weeks on end, until the damp pro­ duces a green sheen on the shoes under your bed. Rains as we saw reg­ ularly as youngsters, when it was impossible to travel the red quagmire of the mountain road leading to Morgenster mission. When, coming from Fort Victoria, we had to walk for miles across the granite rocks of Mount Mugabe - vehicles left far behind at Wayside Farm - to reach home.

  • 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.

  • Transforming Lives in Zimbabwe: Rural Sustainable Energy Development Project
    OXFAM CASE STUDY AUGUST 2015 TRANSFORMING LIVES IN ZIMBABWE Rural Sustainable Energy Development Project JOHN MAGRATH Programme Researcher, Oxfam The renewable energy access work of Oxfam and Practical Action in the Ruti and Himalaya communal areas of Zimbabwe has: • Improved health outcomes; • Widened access to education; • Increased production and boosted business and enterprise; • Strengthened livelihoods; • Enhanced quality of life. It is on the way to creating green communities that are independent of the national grid and becoming self-sustaining through the model it has developed. This paper contains a series of mini-reports documenting the human impacts of the work and the ways in which the systems operate. www.oxfam.org INTRODUCTION This paper captures the story so far of the Rural Sustainable Energy Development Project (RuSED) in Zimbabwe, and of some of the women and men living in poverty whose unflagging determination and hard work have driven it forward and who are now benefitting from it. Zimbabwe is not producing enough energy to meet the country’s demand, and is therefore partly dependent upon energy imports to provide its cities with electricity. In rural areas there are immense challenges facing attempts to extend the national grid. Fuel, spare parts and skills are all in short supply; poverty and isolation are widespread. In rural areas only 19 percent of people have access to electricity – and often not reliably. Without electricity, farmers cannot process their crops, add value or diversify their livelihoods. In schools and homes children struggle to study without light and are cut off from modern technology. Health clinics and particularly maternity wards are limited in the care they can provide, and women and infants can suffer and die as a result.
