    Operation Update Report Southern Africa: Drought (Food Insecurity) Emergency appeal n°: MDR63003 GLIDE n°: __ Operation update n° 3: 15 February 2021 Timeframe covered by this update: September 2020 – December 2020 Operation start date: 11 December 2019 Operation timeframe and end date: 17 months, 31 May 2021 Funding requirements: CHF 7.4 million DREF amount initially allocated: CHF 768,800 N° of people targeted: Botswana: 7,750 - Eswatini: 25,000 - Lesotho: 23,000 - Namibia: 18,000 Total: 73,750 people (14,750 households) Red Cross Red Crescent Movement partners currently actively involved in the operation: American Red Cross, British Red Cross; Canadian Red Cross; Finnish Red Cross; Netherlands Red Cross; Spanish Red Cross; Swedish Red Cross Other partner organizations actively involved in the operation: Governments of Botswana, Eswatini, Lesotho and Namibia; Government of Japan. Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), United States Agency for International Development (USAID); World Food Programme (WFP); Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO); GIZ; and UNICEF. <Please click here for the budget and here for the contacts> Summary: This operation update reflects the current situation and information available since the last operation update published in September 2020. The operation timeframe will be extended by one month to end on 31 May 2021 to allow for a final evaluation to be completed. Simultaneously, as needs persist and the funding gap in 2020 allowed to reach less than half of the targeted people in many places, extending the operation further beyond May is being discussed. Following discussions with the National Societies and estimates of needs and possible activities, a new operation update may be published to extend the timeframe or the Emergency Appeal may be revised should a change of activities be foreseen.

  • Prevalence of Iron and Folic Acid Supplements Consumption and Associated Factors Among Pregnant Women in Eswatini: a Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study Gugulethu N
    Mabuza et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2021) 21:469 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-021-03881-8 RESEARCH Open Access Prevalence of iron and folic acid supplements consumption and associated factors among pregnant women in Eswatini: a multicenter cross-sectional study Gugulethu N. Mabuza1, Alexander Waits1,2,3, Owen Nkoka4 and Li-Yin Chien1,5* Abstract Background: During pregnancy, nutritional requirements increase and if not met, pregnancy-related complications may manifest. To prevent these undesirable outcomes, the World Health Organization recommends daily oral iron and folic acid (IFA) supplementation as part of antenatal care. Despite this recommendation, the use of IFA supplements is still very low in several developing countries. Additionally, no prior information exists regarding the level of consumption of IFA in Eswatini. Thus, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of consumption of IFA supplements and to identify factors associated with the consumption of IFA supplements among pregnant women in Eswatini. Methods: A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 330 pregnant women aged ≥ 18 years in their third trimester in Eswatini. Participants were recruited from eight purposively selected healthcare facilities from July 2019 to October 2019. Good consumption was defined as consuming all or almost all IFA supplements throughout pregnancy. Results: During the first trimester, 10.3 % of the participants consumed all or almost all IFA supplements. In the second and third trimesters, those who consumed all or almost all supplements were 37 and 39.7 %, respectively, for iron and 37.6 and 40.9 %, respectively, for folic acid. Barriers, including side effects, forgetfulness, safe previous pregnancies without IFA, others’ advice against consumption, IFA stock-outs, inability to meet transport costs, and inadequate supply of IFA tablets, contribute to low consumption of IFA.

  • Inequality of Opportunities in Education in Eswatini
    Inequality of Opportunities in Education in Eswatini By Nhlanhla Zulu Abstract This study quantifies inequality of opportunity in education in Eswatini using Multiple Indicator Cluster and Demographic and Housing Surveys. Using the “ex-ante” approach, the study identifies potential sources of inequality at all levels of the general education system in Eswatini and how these interplay with learner achievement. The study finds that, on average, circumstances account for a low portion of the variance (approximately 23.7%) in learner attainment. This measure is higher for learners aged 15 to 18 years. This means that, as the learner grows, the influence of unequal circumstances on educational attainment increases. In addition, family background variables like household wealth and education of household head are the main sources of inequality of opportunity. Therefore, opportunity equalising policies are required at all levels of the general education system in Eswatini. Key Words: Inequality of opportunity, ex-ante 1. Introduction Educational achievement is considered as a fundamental input into a person’s functioning and capacity to flourish there has been great interest by individuals and policy makers in the distribution of opportunities in education. Despite the growing interest of policymakers as well as economists in equality of opportunity; its empirical applications remain scarce. The main reason is that implementation of equal opportunity policies requires the identification of the contribution of circumstances and effort to observed inequality (Jusot, Tubeuf, and Trannoy, 2010). Moreover, studying the differential intensity of opportunity inequality across regional areas, professional categories or even income classes, can give clearer information on the priorities of a redistributive policy (Checchi, Daniele, Peragine, and Vitorocco, 2005).

This region was targeted because it covers 31% of the country and has a semiarid climate with an average annual precipitation between 400mm and 800mm, which makes it very difficult to grow crops without a moisture conservation plan. This report covers the activities conducted under the umbrella of two primary sectors, which were the focus of the 2009- 2012 IRD Swaziland’s program areas: 1. Agriculture and Food Security Objective: to improve agricultural practices under drought conditions; 2.
