The need to update the WMP-77 has already been recognized for some time and this work was included in the Phase III Programme of the Mtwara-Lindi Rural Water Supply Development Project. The importance of the updating was ernphazised during the evaluation of the Project at the beginning of 1994 and Terms of Reference for it were included in the evaluation report. Due to the financial constraints it was agreed that the revised plan shall deal with the water supply sector only. The objectives of the updating work were outlined in the evaluation report: (a) To update the assessment of both groundwater and surface water resources. (b) To assess the present level of water service and the relationship of this to the pre-Project level. (c) To make a proposal for the future water supply development, taking into account following aspects: .'•••- community involvement in Project activities, district focus (district and village councils), selection of suitable technologies, - the current national economic situation, - population growth since the 1978 census, any other local factor. The work was started in June, 1984 and was carried out by the Finnwater organization which has been strengthened by experts specifically assigned to this work. Co-operation with the local MAJI organization has been close and staff were made available for this work, particularly for the village survey. Contacts with the Water Master Planning Co-ordination Unit and other authorities especially on the regional and district levels have been frequent. -2- The Draft Interim Report including the assessment of the present water supply situation, the water resources review, water demand estimates and the proposed planning criteria was presented in May, 1985. The report was discussed and commented upon in May-July, 1985. The Draft Water Supply Development Plan including presentation of water supply methods and their costs, alternative projects, and the actual water supply development plan, was completed in October, 1985. The report was discussed and commented upon in December, 1985. This Final Report comprises three volumes: Volume 1 Main Report Volume 2 Studies Volume 3 Maps The area covered by the plan - Mtwara and Lindi Regions - is shown in Figure 1. -3- FIGURE 1 PLANNING AREA: MTWARA AND LINDI REGIONS 100 km LEGEND •_•_» international border »——•>_ Regional boundary _. — ._.

For that purpose following investigations have been carried out: village survey piped water supply schemes inspection Information gathered in the field has been checked and compared with the data collected from MAJI Headquarters and regional and district offices and from other regional and district authorities. Records kept by Finnwater have also been used. Aerial photographs taken in 1981 were used when locating the villages and settlements were pinpointed in. The water supply situation of the major urban settlements, Mtwara-Mikindani town and Lindi town were studied separately. 2.2 Village Survey During the village survey, practically all of the 900 registered villages were visited. In addition, about 200 sub-villages were also surveyed. The total number of sub-villages and other rural settlements is not known since their official status is not always clear, but their number can be estimated at around 700 -800. The survey was carried out between August 1984 and March 1985 by survey teams of 1 - 2 water supply technicians. The number of teams in the field varied from 1 to 3 at a time. During the survey, village officials were interviewed on the precise location, population, livestock, present water situation, future water supply, health, sanitation of the villages, village economy and willingness to participate in the water supply development. Water supply systems of the villages were also visited by the teams. The Questionnaire Form used in the survey can be seen in - 5 - Appendix 1. The data collected in the villages were checked and then processed by a computer. The format of the computer listing on which all that information is available, is reproduced in Appendix 2. The basic village data are presented in Appendix 3. Selected data are summarized in Appendix 4. Based on the results of the survey and other studies, the maps included in WMP-77 showing the villages and administrative areas have been updated. They are shown on Drawings 2, 3 and 4, 1:250,000, of Volume 3. Village survey can be considered fairly successful and the picture it gives on the water supply situation accurate, although mistakes can be found in the data of individual villages. Figures on population and livestock in particular, obtained from different sources, are often contradictory. 2.3 Piped Water Supply Schemes Inspection All the existing 143 piped supply schemes were visited by a senior officer between August 1984 - February 1985. During the visit, the different parts of each scheme were inspected and evaluated and the need and usefulness of rehabilitation was assessed. The form used in the investigations is in shown Appendix 5. The important data of the rural water supplies are in Appendix 6. The locations of the water supplies are shown on Drawings 7, 8 and 9, 1:250,000, Volume 3. There are a number of incomplete or fully abandoned piped water supply schemes in the area. Most of them were not included in the inspection. The same applies to those private water schemes which are of little public importance. 2.4 Water Supply Situation 1984 2.21 General Water Supply Situation The water supply situation in the area can be described in terms of water supply systems used by the people and by the levels of service of these systems.

This was the fifth Census after the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. Other censuses were carried out in 1967, 1978, 1988 and 2002. The 2012 PHC, like previous censuses, will contribute to the improvement of quality of life of Tanzanians through the provision of current and reliable data for policy formulation, development planning and service delivery as well as for monitoring and evaluating national and international development frameworks. The 2012 PHC is unique as the collected information will be used in monitoring and evaluating the Development Vision 2025 for Tanzania Mainland and Zanzibar Development Vision 2020, Five Year Development Plan 2011/12–2015/16, National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (NSGRP) commonly known as MKUKUTA and Zanzibar Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty (ZSGRP) commonly known as MKUZA. The Census will also provide information for the evaluation of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in 2015. The Poverty Monitoring Master Plan, which is the monitoring tool for NSGRP and ZSGRP, mapped out core indicators for poverty monitoring against the sequence of surveys, with the 2012 PHC being one of them. Several of these core indicators for poverty monitoring are measured directly from the 2012 PHC.

  • Policies and Legal Frameworks for Marine Protected Areas
    Policies and legal frameworks for Marine Protected Areas governance in Tanzania mainland: their potential and limitations for achieving conservation and livelihood goals. Bigeyo Neke Kuboja United Nations-Nippon Foundation of Japan Fellowship Programme December 2013 Abstract The focus of this study is territorial sea marine protected areas governance in Tanzania mainland. The study describes and analyses the limitations and potential for existing policies and legal framework for managing these systems to better integrate conservation and livelihood goals; by using Mafia Island Marine Park (MIMP), which is a marine protected area (MPA), located on Mafia Island as a case study. The study examines Tanzanian legislations and international instruments that are relevant for MPA governance and their applicability in MIMP. There are about 33 marine protected areas along the Tanzanian coastline. The coastline is endowed by numerous small near shore islands and islets as well as several large islands, coral reefs, mangrove forests, sea grass beds and sandy beaches which support plentiful marine organisms as spawning, breeding, feeding, and growth habitats that are worth to be managed and used sustainably. The coastline extends approximately 1400km in north-south direction from the Tanzania-Kenya border in the north to the Tanzania-Mozambique border in the south. Several previous reports have identified most of the governance challenges facing coastal and marine resources including MPAs in Tanzania. Therefore, through utilization of secondary data, understandings into the MPA management/governance and by applying lessons from other developing nations coastal settings this study highlighted some mechanism on how the existing policies and legal frameworks can be used to improve the situation on the ground for sustainably exploiting and managing coastal and marine resources of Tanzania.

  • Agricultural Growth and Poverty Reduction in Tanzania 2000- 2010: Where Has Agriculture Worked for the Poor and What Can We Learn from This?
    Working Paper June 2011 No. 208 Agricultural growth and poverty reduction in Tanzania 2000- 2010: where has agriculture worked for the poor and what can we learn from this? Oswald Mashindano Kim Kayunze Lucia da Corta What is Chronic Poverty? Festo Maro The distinguishing feature of chronic poverty is extended duration in absolute poverty. Therefore, chronically poor people always, or usually, live below a poverty line, which is normally defined in terms of a money indicator (e.g. consumption, income, etc.), but could also be defined in terms of wider or subjective aspects of deprivation. This is different from the transitorily poor, who move in and out of poverty, or only occasionally fall below the poverty line. Chronic Poverty Research Centre www.chronicpoverty.org ISBN: 978-1-908536-05-1 Agricultural growth and poverty reduction in Tanzania 2000-2010: where has agriculture worked for the poor and what can we learn from this? Abstract Agriculture is an economic activity important to achieving the poverty reduction strategy goals of Tanzania. Growth in agriculture has made contributions to GDP, foreign exchange earnings, and income poverty reduction. However, despite high growth, the growth pattern in agriculture (which employed about 70 percent of the population between 1998 and 2009) is not reflected in poverty reduction, particularly in rural areas. Using quantitative and qualitative data collected from rural farmers in Mwanza, Newala and Rukwa regions, this paper unpacks growth and poverty transmission routes, identifies growth barriers for agricultural incomes, and analyses where agricultural growth has occurred and if that growth has been transmitted into poverty reduction.
