A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY IREEN MUDEKA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Name of Adviser: Allen F. Isaacman, Name of Co-adviser: Helena Pohlandt McCormick October 2011 © IREEN MUDEKA Acknowledgements I owe a great debt of gratitude to many friends, colleagues and everyone who provided moral and intellectual support from the period when I started research on this dissertation until its completion. I am very thankful to all Malawian women and men in Rugare, Mufakose, Highfield and Mbare townships of Harare, Zimbabwe and to those in Mpondabwino and Mbayani townships of Zomba and Blantyre who took the time to talk to me about their personal lives. Because of their generosity, they became not just informants but my teachers, mothers, sisters and friends. In Harare, I especially want to thank Mrs. Tavhina Masongera of Rugare for going beyond sharing her life experiences with me to take me under her wing and provide a bridge between me and other women in the townships of Harare as well as of Malawi. Mrs. Masongera took the time to travel with me all the way to Malawi where she introduced me to many women who had lived in Harare during the colonial period. Without her, I would not have known where to begin as a migrant in a country that I was visiting for the very first time.

TARGETS Hard cash was increasingly targeted in the past month with more incidents expected in December as foreign currency increases in the country through remittances from the diaspora and the increase in travel to Zimbabwe. Vehicle thefts are on the increase with the Zimbabwe Republic Police urging motorists to be vigilant and not pick up hitchhikers especially along the highway. The increase in vehicle thefts may also be linked to an increase in crime as these vehicles are often used in other criminal activity. - As theft from vehicle incidents increased in the past month, motorists should also be vigilant when parking in public spaces as theft from vehicle incidents are likely to increase especially at shopping centres. MODUS OPERANDI • Apart from jumping the durawall, criminals have been lifting gates off their rails in order to access premises. It is advisable that sensors and flood lights are installed near the gate for early intruder warning. • As homeowners invite and entertain their guests this festive season, it’s important they ensure that they keep their homes secure.

I also would like to make a special dedication to all the people making a living out of recycling waste in Harare for you are a special kind. i ABSTRACT The main objective of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of the strategies employed by the City of Harare in household solid waste management. To achieve these, structured questionnaires, interviews, observations and focus group discussions were employed in data gathering together with secondary data. The study was conducted in Harare’s low, medium and high density income suburbs. Findings revealed that organic solid waste constituted the largest proportion of waste generated in Harare and other forms are also generated yet their collection is very minimal. Residents resort to illegal night dumping, resulting in the proliferation of associated diseases. In light of these findings, it was recommended that waste collection entities be capacitated, people be educated on waste recycling, reduction and reusing. A commission was to be put in place to ensure proper enforcement of waste legislation, effective and sustainable day in running of household solid waste management in the city. ii KEY TERMS Solid Waste, Household, Management, Strategies, Effectiveness, Harare, Zimbabwe iii STATEMENT OF SUBMISSION I declare that AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HOUSEHOLD SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES IN HARARE, ZIMBABWE is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references.

PAPER SERIES This working paper series focuses on edu- cation policies and programs in developing countries, featuring research conducted by guest scholars at the Center for Universal Education at Brookings. CUE develops and disseminates effective solutions to the chal- lenges of achieving universal quality educa- tion. Through the Global Scholars Program, guest scholars from developing countries join CUE for six months to pursue research on global education issues. We are delight- ed to share their work through this series. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This paper is dedicated to the orphans, vulnerable children and youth of the Blossoms Children Com- munity (BCC) and Youth in Transition Trust Zimbabwe (YITTZ) of Mufakose, Harare and to all the children in various institutions across Zimbabwe. It has been a great experience watching these children blossom for the last seven years and having the opportunity of sharing their joys and sorrows, their hopes and dreams. As they make the transition to adulthood, it is my greatest desire to see them having positive live- lihood outcomes, breaking the cycle of poverty and marginalization. I appreciate the loving support of my husband, Mus- tafa, whose encouragement has made it possible for me to pursue my dreams. I am grateful to my children, Rutendo, Daudi, Mtuwa and Mutsa, for their patience and the joy they bring in my life.
