The exercise was undertaken from 10 th to 18 th February, 2011. The overall objective of the Floods Monitoring exercise was to assess the risk of flooding and to establish the sectors at risk. Of the twenty (20) assessed districts, only Kazungula and Sinazongwe received below normal rainfall for the period under review while Kaoma and Zambezi received above normal rainfall. Significant deviation from the normal rainfall was experienced in Kaoma where a 38% departure was recorded. The rest of the districts received normal rainfall. Further, analysis of the data collected from the 20 districts indicated that 18% (69, 175 Households) of the total households in the survey area were exposed to flooding. Of the 160 wards that were indicated to be at risk of flooding, 35% (55 wards) were said to be at high risk, 39% (63 wards) at medium risk and the remainder were at low risk. The survey revealed that 11, 094 households (66, 563 people) were at high risk of flooding in 13 of the 20 surveyed districts. In terms of health, the survey found that the case loads of diseases such as malaria, acute respiratory infection, diarrhoea and other diseases were normal. However, all the assessed districts anticipated an increase in the case loads of these diseases. The availability of health supplies was generally adequate except for mosquito nets and antibiotics. The risk to health infrastructure was not very significant in most of the districts assessed. However, accessibility to these health infrastructures was hampered due to washed away bridges and submerged roads especially in North-Western and Western Provinces. In terms of the anticipated loss of yield in the staple crops, the Provinces that are most at risk include Southern, Lusaka and Western. Western and North Western provinces recorded the highest risk of anticipated loss on cash crops and livestock sector. It should be noted that the highest reported risk of crop loss on staple food production is around 25% of the planted crop fields in Southern province and below 15% in the next most at risk province of Lusaka. The anticipated cash crop losses were estimated at between 15% and 20% of the planted area. In the case of education, the data indicated that most of the schools in the surveyed districts of Western Province were already closed due to flooding. The districts where this is the case are Mongu, Kalabo and Senanga. Schools on the West Bank of Chavuma and Zambezi are also likely to get flooded and may cause disruption to the school curricular. Only one school in Sinazongwe indicated that the school was experiencing water contamination and this situation could deteriorate and bring in secondary effects such as cholera which had already been reported in Malima ward. Some extreme impact situations are however reported in Kaoma district where up to 178 mainly mud and pole houses in the Mayukwayukwa Refugee Camp have collapsed including a distribution centre and 8 church structures have collapsed. iv It was concluded that although precipitation for most districts was normal, the risk of flooding was there due to their geographical location, topography and the already high water tables due to the past four consecutive seasons of high rainfall. It was also established that Fifty-five (55) wards in 13 districts were found to be at high risk of flooding. It was also established that some districts were already experiencing flooding. There was a possibility that the case loads of diseases such as malaria, acute respiratory infections and diarrhea were likely to increase. It was established that the availability of health supplies was generally adequate except for mosquito nets and antibiotics. There is a possibility that some health centres will be cut-off as the rain season progresses. Some health infrastructure in Chibombo, Mumbwa and Sinazongwe were reported to be at risk due to lack of maintenance. There was a large number of people accessing unsafe sources of drinking water which predisposed them to water borne diseases. Sinazongwe was singled out as one district experiencing chemical contamination from the coal mining activities. Districts in Southern and Western Provinces were already experiencing human-animal conflict due to the smaller grazing lands for both domestic and wild animals. There was a fear of livestock diseases breaking out in Livestock rearing Provinces such as Southern and Western Provinces due to the flooding which some districts are already experiencing. The survey indicated that there were districts where houses had collapsed. Notable districts were Kaoma, Mongu and Itezhi tezhi. There was generally a big number of infrastructure (roads, bridges and culverts) already requiring attention as most of these are a carry-over from the previous seasons that were also marked

  • Living in a Global Commons – the Case of Residents of a National Park in the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (Kaza TFCA), Southern Africa
    Living in a Global Commons – the case of residents of a national park in the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KaZa TFCA), southern Africa. Author: C A Murphy 1 “The empowering of local communities will not be enough to ensure the functioning of large Transboundary Natural Resource Management Areas. The sheer scale of such a venture is so large that, after achieving empowerment, it will be necessary to develop new institutions that enable a mosaic of communities to represent themselves in the higher decision taking forums and to co-ordinate their ecological management across a wide landscape. This requires both delegation of some authority upwards and a strong degree of accountability downward (Murphree, 2000 ). ABSTRACT In 2006, five southern African countries pledged their support for the establishment of the Kavango-Zambezi Tranfrontier Conservation Area, also known as the KaZa TFCA. The driver behind this global commons is that it houses the largest population of African elephant left in the world. Sioma Ngweze National Park lies in the far-flung south-west corner of Zambia and is the least developed park in Zambia. Yet from a global commons perspective, it forms the geographic heart of the KaZa TFCA and is a corridor for elephants moving from Botswana into Zambia and Angola. International transboundary NGOs (Peace Parks Foundation and Conservation International) have recently taken a keen interest in the Park’s status. As a result of the Park being inhabited, there is an overlay of three institutions operating – an ancient traditional authority, a local government authority (District Commissioner and councillors), with the wildlife authorities being a relative newcomer.

Cattle sales, ploughing by oxen, the increase in cattle numbers and milk production appeared to be the most important returns (26, 21, 19 and 16 % of total gross returns, respectively). Local slaughter, manure and ox- power for transport played a minor role. The calculated costs were about a third of the gross returns. The net economic efficiency was calculated at RESSOURCES ANIMALES US$ 1.4 per ha per year. The kraal keeper's household (KKH), who owned 60 % of the herd, accrued 64 % from the total gross returns, incurred 73 % of total costs and accrued 58 % of the net returns. Average net returns to the KKH from cattle keeping, crops, sales of other farm produce and off-farm income were 50, 31, 6 and 13 % of the total household income, respectively.

  • CHIEFS and the STATE in INDEPENDENT ZAMBIA Exploring the Zambian National Press
    CHIEFS AND THE STATE IN INDEPENDENT ZAMBIA Exploring the Zambian National Press •J te /V/- /. 07 r s/ . j> Wim van Binsbergen Introduction In West African countries such as Nigeria, Ghana and Sierra Leone, chiefs have successfully entered the modern age, characterized by the independent state and its bureaucratie institutions, peripheral capitalism and a world-wide electronic mass culture. There, chiefs are more or less conspicuous both in daily life, in post-Independence literary products and even in scholarly analysis. In the first analysis, the Zambian situation appears to be very different. After the späte of anthropological research on chiefs in the colonial era,1 post-Independence historical research has added précision and depth to the scholarly insight concerning colonial chiefs and the precolonial rulers whose royal or aristocratie titles the former had inherited, as well as those (few) cases where colonial chieftaincies had been downright invented for the sake of con- venience and of systemic consistence all over the territory of the then Northern Rhodesia. But precious little has been written on the rôle and performance of Zambian chiefs öfter Independence. A few recent regional studies offer useful glances at chiefly affairs in 1. The colonial anthropological contribution to the study of Zambian chieftainship centered on, the Rhodes-Livingstone Institute and the Manchester School, and included such classic studies of chieftainship as Barnes 1954; Cunnison 1959; Gluckman 1943, 1967; Richards 1935; Watson 1958. Cf. Werbner 1984 for a recent appraisal. e Copyright 1987 - Wim van Binsbergen - 139 - CHIEFS IN INDEPENDENT ZAMBIA Wim van Binsbergen selected rural districts,2 but by and large they fail to make the link with the national level they concentrât« on the limited number of chiefs of the région under study.

  • The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia
    The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Technical Report Samuel Mulenga Bwalya Department of Economics, University of Zambia, Box 32379, Lusaka Tel# 260 1 290475, [email protected] The Contribution of Dry Forests to Rural Poverty Reduction and to the National Economy: Zambia Draft summary We have shown that forests and woodland resources contribute, on average, 21% to total production and income of rural households. Aggregating forest production and income to a national levels based on sample information is challenging task and by no means likely to be very precise and accurate. But scaling up sample estimates to the national level facilitates inter-sectoral comparisons and would sharpen our insights about the importance of forests and woodland resources in rural development and poverty reduction. Sample estimates and national statistics on the number of rural households is used to scale up and estimate the contribution of forest and woodland resources to the national rural household sector. We multiply the proportion of households harvesting a particular forest product by the total number of rural households in Zambia. This gives us an estimate of the number of rural household across the country that harvest forest a given forest product both for consumption within the household and for sell to obtain cash income. This estimate is then multiplied by the average value of each forest product harvested to obtain the total contribution of the forests sector to rural household economy. Because we ignore value addition along the supply chain and other forms of income and services households derive from forests, this estimate should be seen to represent the minimum contribution of forest resources to rural household sector.

  • Monthly Report January 19 – February 19, 2002 Summary
    Monthly Report January 19 – February 19, 2002 Summary • Zambia continued to experience a generally normal to below-normal rainy season. The dry spell in the southern parts of the country is of great concern as this has extended into some high- producing districts in Southern Province (Choma District), Western Province (Kaoma District) and the southern parts of Central Province. Crop yields in these areas are expected to be significantly reduced as a result. In some areas, crops have passed the permanent wilting point. • Zambia’s neighboring countries of Malawi, Mozambique, and particularly Zimbabwe have also experienced well-below normal rainfall this season. • Zambia’s food security situation continues to be of great concern, as the availability of staple food (maize) remains limited this late into the marketing season. Many households are also having problems purchasing maize as a result of exceptionally high prices. • The World Food Program started its relief food distribution program on January 24. So far, progress has been good despite the slow rate of relief food being brought into the country. Out of the estimated 42,000 MT requirement, only 12,000 MT has been purchased in South Africa for distribution to Zambia. Response from donors has been slow. As of February 12, 1,800 MT of maize was received from South Africa, all of which has been moved to the targeted districts. 1.0 Rainfall and Crop Condition 1.1 Rainfall Generally, the rainy season in Zambia so far has been characterized by normal to below-normal rainfall. Normal rainfall has been confined to northern and central parts of Zambia.
