UNICEF Zimbabwe Situation Report - 30 April 2017 Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs The results of the ZimVAC rapid assessment conducted in January 2017 showed that global acute malnutrition Figure 1: Prevalence rate of GAM, MAM (GAM) has reduced from 5.7 per cent reported in and SAM, ZimVAC 2016-2017 January 2016 to 3.1 per cent in 2017 (see figure 1). In 5.7% 6.0% the same period, a nutrition assessment using the SMART methodology was carried out in 27 districts 5.0% 4.4% earmarked for emergency nutrition response 4.0% 3.6% 3.1% programmes including seven of the nine highly food- 3.0% 2.5% insecure districts. The survey results show a significant 2.1% 1.9% 1.6% decline in the GAM prevalence as compared to the 2.0% 1.4% ZimVAC assessment results of July 2016. However, the 1.0% effects of the El Niño phenomenon will be felt among 0.0% women, children and men in the sub-region for years to ZimVAC Jan 2016 ZimVAC May 2016 ZimVAC Jan 2017 come as estimates indicate that it will take approximately two years for communities to recover from the effects of GAM MAM SAM the El Niño associated drought even with the improved agricultural conditions. The Government of Zimbabwe declared a national flood disaster on 2 March 2017 and launched a Flood Disaster Domestic and International Appeal for Humanitarian Assistance on 20 March 2017, requesting US $189 million. The flooding affected 36 districts in the country, most of which were recently affected by the El Niño associated drought, thereby eroding the coping capacities of the vulnerable communities. In addition to localized displacement, infrastructural damages and the disruption of education services, the floods compromised access to clean water, safe hygiene and sanitation practices where WASH infrastructure was destroyed thereby increasing the risk of WASH related diseases. Humanitarian leadership and coordination The Department of Civil Protection continued to lead the national and sub-national coordination of the flood emergency response through national, provincial, district and ward level Civil Protection Committees. During the reporting period, UNICEF continued to provide technical support to the national and sub-national flood coordination mechanisms through the national Civil Protection Committee and the Emergency Services Sub- Committee. UNICEF participated in the Capacity for Disaster Reduction Initiative (CADRI) Inter-Agency Assessment of the Disaster Risk Management System in Zimbabwe. The assessment was carried out by a multi- disciplinary team composed of approximately 20 representatives from the Department of Civil Protection (DCP), UN agencies and international experts deployed through the CADRI and the United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) system. A draft report of the assessment findings and recommendations has been shared with the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) and Government counterparts. Under the WASH sector, UNICEF continued to support the national Emergency Strategic Advisory Group (E- SAG) coordination mechanisms to coordinate flood and typhoid response activities. Four E-SAG meetings were held at the national level during the reporting period. In addition, UNICEF continued to support Provincial and District Water and Sanitation Sub-Committees, with a total of five meetings held at subnational level. The nutrition sector continued to collaborate with the Ministry of Health and Child Care (MoHCC) and the National Nutrition Technical Working Group in coordinating the nutrition response. During the reporting period, one National Nutrition Coordination meeting and three Weekly Emergency Nutrition Meetings were held at the national level. UNICEF continues to strengthen coordination of the emergency response, situation monitoring, preparedness and capacity development of the government and sub-sector member agencies participating in the child protection sub-sector at national and at sub-national levels. During the reporting period, one national child protection sub-sector meeting was held to review the sector contingency plan and to plan for a child protection initial assessment which was conducted by UNICEF, Childline and the Ministry of Public Service, Labor and Social Welfare (MOPSLSW) in March 2017. The assessment’s findings informed advocacy and fundraising efforts to expand the child protection interventions being implemented in response to the impact of the flooding. Humanitarian Strategy UNICEF continues to work with the Government, UN Agencies and NGOs to provide access to critical and life- saving health and nutrition, WASH, education, child protection, social protection and HIV/AIDS. As defined by the projects under the revised inter-agency humanitarian response plan and UNICEF’s response plan, UNICEF UNICEF Zimbabwe Situation Report - 30 April 2017 is implementing emergency programmes in high-risk food and nutrition insecure districts and responding to rapid onset emergencies, mainly localized flooding and diarrhoeal disease outbreaks. The response is being implemented in complementarity with ongoing development programmes in an effort to enhance sustainability and link humanitarian interventions with recovery and resilience building programmes. UNICEF is working with the Government and NGOs to implement the current drought response interventions in coordination with other UN Agencies. UNICEF and partners are supporting the MoHCC to provide access to life-saving essential health, nutrition and WASH services through strengthening community-based management of acute malnutrition programmes and reaching children with critical WASH services. UNICEF is supporting the MOPSLSW to strengthen child protection services to protect the most vulnerable children, particularly girls, from violence, abuse and exploitation. Children, adolescents and pregnant and lactating mothers on antiretroviral treatment (ART) are being supported through advocacy for an HIV sensitive supplementary feeding programme and are being provided with care and treatment. Communication for Development interventions are being mainstreamed in all sectors specifically focusing on the provision of technical assistance to the government and NGO counterparts, formative research and the development of Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials. The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (MoPSE) is being supported in the flood response through technical support and the provision of teaching and learning materials. UNICEF is providing technical support to the Ministry to implement the emergency supplementary school feeding programme and the recovery-oriented home-grown school feeding programme.

  • The Political Ecology of Poverty Alleviation in Zimbabwe's Communal Areas Management Programme for Indigenous Resources CAMPFIRE) B
    Geoforum 33 2002) 1±14 www.elsevier.com/locate/geoforum The political ecology of poverty alleviation in Zimbabwe's Communal Areas Management Programme for Indigenous Resources CAMPFIRE) B. Ikubolajeh Logan a, William G. Moseley b a Department of Geography, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602-2502, USA b Department of Geography, Northern Illinois University, Dekalb, IL 60115-2854, USA Received 13 November 2000; in revised form 25 June 2001 Abstract The CAMPFIRE program in Zimbabwe is one of a `new breed' of strategies designed to tackle environmental management at the grassroots level. CAMPFIRE aims to help rural communities to manage their resources, especially wildlife, for their own local development. The program's central objective is to alleviate rural poverty by giving rural communities autonomy over resource management and to demonstrate to them that wildlife is not necessarily a hindrance to arable agriculture, ``but a resource that could be managed and `cultivated' to provide income and food''. In this paper, we assess two important elements of CAMPFIRE: poverty alleviation and local empowerment and comment on the program's performance in achieving these highly interconnected objectives. We analyze the program's achievements in poverty alleviation by exploring tenurial patterns, resource ownership and the allocation of proceeds from resource exploitation; and its progress in local empowerment by examining its administrative and decision making structures. We conclude that the program cannot eectively achieve the goal of poverty alleviation without ®rst addressing the administrative and legal structures that underlie the country's political ecology.

Gasana Lori Bell Julius Kajume Shinga Mupindu Marjorie Smith-John May 2011 Map of Zimbabwe Source: http://www.goldbamboo.com/topic-t8659-a1-6Zimbabwe_.html ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Evaluation of FAO Cooperation in Zimbabwe (2006-2010) 1. This report presents findings and recommendations of the Evaluation of FAO-Zimbabwe Cooperation (2006-2010) which was commissioned by the Office of Evaluation, FAO and was carried out from 1st to 25 February 2011. The period under evaluation saw difficult relations between Zimbabwe and Donors. FAO played a key role of “Coordination/Honest broker” between Donors, Government and other emergency aid and development partners. It followed, with great success, the principle of partnership with government, while taking into account the donors’ funding constraints and the accountability requirements. In most of this period, FAO’s cooperation with Zimbabwe, which consisted mainly of an emergency program, was not guided by an overall official framework document. Nevertheless there was continuity of a rolling strategy consisting in adjusting interventions as needs and the context changed. Furthermore, there is a Draft Country Programming Framework (CPF 2009-2013) as well as a Plan of Action (PoA 2010-2015) entitled “Zimbabwe: Transitioning Emergency into Rehabilitation and Development”. Its expected outcomes are improved food security through increased production and sustainable management of natural resources and the environment. To implement its program, FAO works through a large number of Implementing Partners (IPs).

  • Geography Module Level II Volume 1
    Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education Geography Module Level II Volume 1 Lifelong and Continuing Education 2020 Introduction The last thirty years have seen resurgence in Open Distance learning as a pedagogical approach and this trend is envisaged to continue. The knowledge-based society that we live in has enabled learning to take place anywhere or everywhere. The concept of a classroom without walls continues to grow in Zimbabwe. Due to the demand for open distance learning, the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education has revamped its non-formal education department to embed distance learning as a tool for learning in order to address the learning needs of the growing numbers of out of school learners or school drop outs that cannot access formal education systems. The module is written in a simple manner with lots of friendly and interactive activities to make learning interesting and easier for the out of school learners. The module develops critical thinking skills, problem solving skills among other 21st Century skills. It is the Ministry’s hope that out of school learners are going to take advantage of this module and benefit immensely in advancing their learning endeavours. I Acknowledgements The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education (MoPSE) wishes to acknowledge Primary Secondary and Non-Formal Education (PSNE) department for coordinating this programme and the Curriculum Development and Technical Services (CDTS) department. Special mention goes to Chabikwa Blessing – Education Research Officer (CDTS) the team
