    Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) 2021 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Masvingo Province Report ZimVAC is Coordinated By Food And Nutrition Council (FNC) Housed At SIRDC: 1574 Alpes Rd, Hatcliffe, Harare. Tel: +263 242 862 586/862 025 Website: www.fnc.org.zw Email: [email protected] Twitter: @FNCZimbabwe Instagram: fnc_zim Facebook: @FNCZimbabwe 1 Foreword In its endeavour to ‘promote and ensure adequate food and nutrition security for all people at all times’, the Government of Zimbabwe continues to exhibit its commitment towards reducing food and nutrition insecurity, poverty and improving livelihoods amongst the vulnerable populations in Zimbabwe through operationalization of Commitment 6 of the Food and Nutrition Security Policy (FNSP). Under the coordination of the Food and Nutrition Council, the Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) undertook the 2021 Rural Livelihoods Assessment, the 21st since its inception. ZimVAC is a technical advisory committee comprised of representatives from Government, Development Partners, UN, NGOs, Technical Agencies and the Academia. Through its assessments, ZimVAC continues to collect, synthesize and disseminate high quality information on the food and nutrition security situation in a timely manner. The 2021 RLA was motivated by the need to provide credible and timely data to inform progress of commitments in the National Development Strategy 1 (NDS 1) and inform planning for targeted interventions to help the vulnerable people in both their short and long-term vulnerability context. Furthermore, as the ‘new normal’ under COVID-19 remains fluid and dynamic, characterized by a high degree of uncertainty, the assessment sought to provide up to date information on how rural food systems and livelihoods have been impacted by the pandemic.

  • An Investigation Into the Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Fallow Land and the Underlying Causes in Southcentral Zimbabwe
    Journal of Geography and Geology; Vol. 4, No. 4; 2012 ISSN 1916-9779 E-ISSN 1916-9787 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education An Investigation into the Spatial and Temporal Distribution of Fallow Land and the Underlying Causes in Southcentral Zimbabwe Emmanuel Manzungu1 & Linda Mtali2 1 Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe 2 Department of Science Technology, Harare Polytechnic, Zimbabwe Correspondence: Emmanuel Manzungu, Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe. E-mail: [email protected] & [email protected] Received: July 11, 2012 Accepted: August 10, 2012 Online Published: September 24, 2012 doi:10.5539/jgg.v4n4p62 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/jgg.v4n4p62 Abstract The purpose of the study was to assess the spatial and temporal distribution of fallow land in Zimbabwean communal lands and the underlying causes against a backdrop of reports of an increasing proportion of agricultural land being left fallow, which has also been reported in other parts of Africa. Chivi district, that is located in the south central part of the country, was used as a case study. Landsat images complemented by field assessments were used to assess changes in fallow land between 1984 and 2010. Standard soil and social science analysis methods were used to assess the likely biophysical and/ or socio-economic causes. The proportion of fallow land was found to increase up to 51.5% during the period, mainly because of socio-economic rather than biophysical factors. Draught power shortage was ranked as the major cause (34%) followed by labor shortage (24%), lack of inputs (22%), and poor soil fertility (16%).

    Zimbabwe Education Cluster Humanitarian Response & COVID-19 Sitrep: 14 May 2020 Cluster focal points Sibangani Shumba, Cluster Coordinator, [email protected] Dominic Muntanga, Cluster Co-coordinator, [email protected] Isaac Macha, Information Management Specialist, [email protected] Reporting period 01 – 14, May 2020 Report number #3 Key figures • 853,032 learners (ECD to Grade 7, ages 3 to 12) targeted under the Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) through Education in Emergency support across 33 districts with severe needs. • 3.5 Million learners are currently affected and targeted under the COVID-19 pandemic. The cluster is targeting to reach them with various activities to address their needs. • 47,368 learners have been reached with HRP related activities with 18,459 learners being reached with COVID-19 related activities as of April 2020. • The cluster is appealing for US$52.5 million: US$ 41 Million through the Humanitarian Response Plan 2020 and US$11.5 Million through the newly launched COVID-19 Addendum. • 20 operational partners with activities planned, ongoing or completed. Humanitarian needs • Zimbabwe’s education system was already stretched before the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of multiple crises, including the impact of Cyclone Idai last year, the economic crisis coupled with hyperinflation and the ongoing drought. The combined effect of the humanitarian crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have far-reaching implications for the protection and wellbeing of children as well as their readiness for school, attendance and participation in learning. • Before the onset of the COVID-19 epidemic, estimates by the Education Cluster were that of the more than 3.4 million children of school going age (3 to 12 years), at least 1.2 million (35 per cent), would need emergency and specialized education services in 2020.
