  • Livelihood Zone Descriptions
    Government of Senegal COMPREHENSIVE FOOD SECURITY AND VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS (CFSVA) Livelihood Zone Descriptions WFP/FAO/SE-CNSA/CSE/FEWS NET Introduction The WFP, FAO, CSE (Centre de Suivi Ecologique), SE/CNSA (Commissariat National à la Sécurité Alimentaire) and FEWS NET conducted a zoning exercise with the goal of defining zones with fairly homogenous livelihoods in order to better monitor vulnerability and early warning indicators. This exercise led to the development of a Livelihood Zone Map, showing zones within which people share broadly the same pattern of livelihood and means of subsistence. These zones are characterized by the following three factors, which influence household food consumption and are integral to analyzing vulnerability: 1) Geography – natural (topography, altitude, soil, climate, vegetation, waterways, etc.) and infrastructure (roads, railroads, telecommunications, etc.) 2) Production – agricultural, agro-pastoral, pastoral, and cash crop systems, based on local labor, hunter-gatherers, etc. 3) Market access/trade – ability to trade, sell goods and services, and find employment. Key factors include demand, the effectiveness of marketing systems, and the existence of basic infrastructure. Methodology The zoning exercise consisted of three important steps: 1) Document review and compilation of secondary data to constitute a working base and triangulate information 2) Consultations with national-level contacts to draft initial livelihood zone maps and descriptions 3) Consultations with contacts during workshops in each region to revise maps and descriptions. 1. Consolidating secondary data Work with national- and regional-level contacts was facilitated by a document review and compilation of secondary data on aspects of topography, production systems/land use, land and vegetation, and population density.

  • SENEGAL Work Plan FY 2017 Project Year 6
    SENEGAL Work Plan FY 2017 Project Year 6 October 2016‒September 2017 ENVISION is a global project led by RTI International in partnership with CBM International, The Carter Center, Fred Hollows Foundation, Helen Keller International, IMA World Health, Light for the World, Sightsavers, and World Vision. ENVISION is funded by the US Agency for International Development under cooperative agreement No. AID-OAA-A-11-00048. The period of performance for ENVISION is September 30, 2011 through September 30, 2019. The author’s views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Agency for International Development or the United States Government. ENVISION PROJECT OVERVIEW The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)’s ENVISION project (2011‒2019) is designed to support the vision of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member states by targeting the control and elimination of seven neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), including lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis (OV), schistosomiasis (SCH), three soil-transmitted helminths (STH; roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm), and trachoma. ENVISION’s goal is to strengthen NTD programming at the global and country levels and support Ministries of Health (MOHs) to achieve their NTD control and elimination goals. At the global level, ENVISION—in close coordination and collaboration with WHO, USAID, and other stakeholders—contributes to several technical areas in support of global NTD control and elimination goals, including the following: • drug and diagnostics procurement where global donation programs are unavailable • capacity strengthening • management and implementation of ENVISION’s Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) • disease mapping • NTD policy and technical guideline development • NTD monitoring and evaluation (M&E).

  • Africa Riskview END of SEASON REPORT | SENEGAL (2017 SEASON)
    Africa RiskView END OF SEASON REPORT | SENEGAL (2017 SEASON) This Africa RiskView End-of-Season Report is a publication by the African Risk Capacity (ARC). The report discusses Africa RiskView’s estimates of rainfall, drought and population affected, comparing them to information from the ground and from external sources. It also provides the basis of a validation exercise of Africa RiskView, which is conducted in each country at the end of an insured season. This exercise aims at reviewing the performance of the model and ensuring that the country’s drought risk is accurately reproduced by Africa RiskView for drought monitoring and insurance coverage. The End-of-Season reports are also being continuously refined with a view to providing early warning to ARC member countries.

  • Bayesian Spatial Models Applied to Malaria Epidemiology

Tanner, P.D. Dr. P. Vounatsou, and Prof. Dr. A. Biggeri. Basel, den 10 December 2013 Prof. Dr. J¨orgSchibler Dekan Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house. (Henri Poincar´e) iv Summary Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease caused by parasitic protozoans of the genus Plasmodium and transmitted to humans via the bites of infected female Anopheles mos- quitoes. Although progress has been seen in the last decade in the fight against the disease, malaria remains one of the major cause of morbidity and mortality in large areas of the developing world, especially sub-Saharan Africa. The main victims are children under five years of age. The observed reductions are going hand in hand with impressive increases in international funding for malaria prevention, control, and elimination, which have led to tremendous expansion in implementing national malaria control programs (NMCPs). Common interventions include indoor residual spraying (IRS), the use of insecticide treated nets (ITN) and environmental measures such as larval control. Specific targets have been set during the last decade. The Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 6 aims to halve malaria incidence by 2015 as compared to 1990 and to achieve universal ITN coverage and treatment with appropriate antimalarial drugs.

  • Is GAFSP Reaching Small-Scale Food Producers in Senegal?
    Is GAFSP reaching small-scale food producers in Senegal? 1 Introduction: The GAFSP supported PASA Lou-Ma- Kaf in Senegal In Senegal, the proportion of people living in extreme poverty dropped from 55.2% in 2001 to 46.7% in 20111. Poverty remains high in rural areas (57.3%), where the majority of the 13 million Senegalese population lives. The deficit of productive jobs in rural areas is fueling an exodus of young people and women to urban centers both inside the country and abroad. Food insecurity remains high (16% of the population in 20142) and affects primarily farm households and poor families. Although contributing less than 13% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP)3, the agricultural sector supports more than half of Senegal’s population. Less than 2% of the cultivated farmland is irrigated4. The livestock sub-sector employs about 3 million people and accounts for about 35% of the GDP in the agricultural sector5. Local grain production can cover only half of basic food needs, and the country imports 70% of its food6, particularly large quantities of white rice. The Food Security Support Project (PASA) in the regions of Louga, Matam and Kaffrine (Lou-Ma-Kaf) is receiving US$40 million from the public sector window of the multi-donor trust fund of the Global Agriculture and Food Security Program (GAFSP). The Senegalese government’s contribution is US$5.8 million. This five-and-a-half-year project (2013-2018) aims to improve rural food security and incomes by facilitating access for small-scale producers, women, and their organizations to rural roads, agricultural and livestock infrastructures, as well as to technologies, services and specially adapted training.
