Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli President of the United Republic of Tanzania “Statistics are very vital in the development of any country particularly when they are of good quality since they enable government to understand the needs of its people, set goals and formulate development programmes and monitor their implementation” H.E. Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli the President of the United Republic of Tanzania at the foundation stone-laying ceremony for the new NBS offices in Dodoma December, 2017. What is the importance of statistics in your daily life? “Statistical information is very important as it helps a person to do things in an organizational way with greater precision unlike when one does not have. In my business, for example, statistics help me know where I can get raw materials, get to know the number of my customers and help me prepare products accordingly. Indeed, the numbers show the trend of my business which allows me to predict the future. My customers are both locals and foreigners who yearly visit the region. In June every year, I gather information from various institutions which receive foreign visitors here in Dodoma. With estimated number of visitors in hand, it gives me ample time to prepare products for my clients’ satisfaction. In terms of my daily life, Statistics help me in understanding my daily household needs hence make proper expenditures.” Mr. Kulwa James Zimba, Artist, Sixth street Dodoma.”.

Received 11 October, 2019; Accepted 24 February, 2020 This study attempted to investigate the pattern and trend of climate change, its influence and interaction with maize post-harvest system and established the current status of maize post-harvest losses at Kongwa and Kondoa district in Tanzania. Participatory rural appraisal technique and household survey methods were used to collect primary data. Secondary data for the study area including rainfall and temperature data from the year 1982 -2017 were collected from Tanzania Meteorological Agency. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically using Nvivo software. Quantitative data from household survey were cross tabulated using SPSS software version 20 and the results were confirmed using canonical correlation test while pattern and trend of rainfall and temperature data were analyzed using trend lines and was confirmed using Mann-Kendall trend test. Findings indicated that annual temperature increase and monthly rainfall pattern changes influences maize post-harvest losses with significant losses denoted more during harvesting and storage with a positive correlation of R2= 0.014 and R2 = 0.121 respectively, while statuses for the maize post-harvest losses are below the threshold value of 40%.

  • Social-Economic Profile
    THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA PRESIDENT’S OFFICE REGIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT KONGWA DISTRICT SOCIAL-ECONOMIC PROFILE District Executive Director, P.O Box 57, KONGWA. Tel: 026 2320537 Fax. 026 2320537 Email: [email protected] August, 2016 i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction This description comprises six chapters. The first chapter introduces the Council of Kongwa focusing on land, climatic condition, agro-ecological zones as well as its people. Kongwa ward is the seat of the District Headquarter. The town started as a centre for German Colonial activities in 1942 following establishment of groundnuts estates. The choice of its location strategically made to fertile soil suitable for groundnuts cultivation and accessibility to road. The town also has historical roots that associate it with the great Gogo tribe. Overtime, the town has redefined and extended its role, eventually becoming a centre for social and economic development for the hinterlands as a whole. The administrative area comprises a total of 22 wards, 87 villages, 383 suburbs and 2 township authorities. The distribution of wards include Sejeli, Kongwa, Sagara, Chamkoroma, Pandambili, Lenjulu, Chiwe, Kibaigwa, Mtanana, Njoge, Ngomai, Mkoka, Matongoro, Makawa, Chitego, Hogoro, Songambele, Zoissa, Iduo, Mlali, Nghumbi and Ugogoni. The District Economy The main economic activities in the council are farming, livestock keeping and informal sector activities. Overall, the industrial sector has been in a gradual development and scaling up their activities. This can be observed from small industries growing for processing cooking oil such as sunflower and groundnuts. This chapter covers the District GDP and average income (per capita), trade and cooperatives, annual budgeting, housing and unplanned settlements as well as informal sector.

  • The Road to Total Sanitation: Notes from a Field Trip and Workshop on Scaling up in Africa
    The Road to Total Sanitation: Notes from a field trip and workshop on scaling up in Africa The Road to Total Sanitation: Notes from a field trip and workshop on scaling up in Africa 23-24 July 2010 In July 2010, six organizations came together to study and discuss current prospects for scaling up access to sanitation and hygiene inVon East Africa. The group started with a trip to the field – visiting various projects in Tanzania that, between them, represent a range of approaches to improving access to sanitation and changing hygiene practices. The objective was not to evaluate or critique individual projects, but rather to look for overarching principles: what works; what doesn’t work; what are the gaps in our knowledge; how can working in partnership help us achieve our aims; what barriers do we need to overcome in order to extend the benefits of such projects to all people across Africa. These notes reflect the conclusions, recommendations and lessons learned from this trip. They are based on a two-day workshop that was held directly following the trip. Further detailed notes, photos, and video material can be found in the appendices. In addition, it is planned that various databanks of reports, photos and videos will be developed and made available via the web. In December 2009, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation organized a meeting on the topic of scaling up on-site sanitation. Following this meeting, WSP convened a meeting of partners to explore how issues raised at the Gates meeting could be taken forward in East Africa.

  • Knowledge of Obstetric Danger Signs Among Recently-Delivered Women in Chamwino District, Tanzania: a Cross-Sectional Study Deogratius Bintabara1,2*, Rose N
    Bintabara et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2017) 17:276 DOI 10.1186/s12884-017-1469-3 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Knowledge of obstetric danger signs among recently-delivered women in Chamwino district, Tanzania: a cross-sectional study Deogratius Bintabara1,2*, Rose N. M. Mpembeni3 and Ahmed Abade Mohamed4 Abstract Background: Low knowledge of danger signs has been shown to delay seeking obstetric care which leads to high maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. In Tanzania about half of pregnant women are informed about obstetric danger signs during antenatal care, but the proportion of those who have full knowledge of these obstetric danger signs is not known. This study assessed the knowledge of obstetric danger signs and its associated factors among recently-delivered women in Chamwino District, Tanzania. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in January 2014 in Chamwino District, Tanzania. A woman was considered knowledgeable if she spontaneously mentioned at least five danger signs in any of the three phases of childbirth (pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum) with at least one in each phase. Multistage cluster sampling was used to recruit study participants. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were conducted. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to control for confounding and other important covariates. Results: A total of 428 women were interviewed. The median age (IQR) was 26.5 (22–33) years. Only 25.2% of respondents were knowledgeable about obstetric danger signs during pregnancy, childbirth/labour and postpartum. Significant explanatory variables of being knowledgeable about obstetric danger signs were found to be maternal education (AOR = 1.96; 95% CI: 1.01, 3.82), maternal occupation (AOR = 2.23; 95% CI; 1.10, 4.52), spouse occupation (AOR = 2.10; 95% CI: 1.02, 4.32) and counseling on danger signs (AOR = 3.42; 95% CI: 1.36, 8.62) after controlling for the clustering effect, confounding and important covariates.
