Malaria Outbreak Investigation in a Rural Area South of Zimbabwe: a Case–Control Study Paddington T
Mundagowa and Chimberengwa Malar J (2020) 19:197 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12936-020-03270-0 Malaria Journal RESEARCH Open Access Malaria outbreak investigation in a rural area south of Zimbabwe: a case–control study Paddington T. Mundagowa1* and Pugie T. Chimberengwa2 Abstract Background: Ninety percent of the global annual malaria mortality cases emanate from the African region. About 80–90% of malaria transmissions in sub-Saharan Africa occur indoors during the night. In Zimbabwe, 79% of the population are at risk of contracting the disease. Although the country has made signifcant progress towards malaria elimination, isolated seasonal outbreaks persistently resurface. In 2017, Beitbridge District was experiencing a second malaria outbreak within 12 months prompting the need for investigating the outbreak. Methods: An unmatched 1:1 case–control study was conducted to establish the risk factors associated with con- tracting malaria in Ward 6 of Beitbridge District from week 36 to week 44 of 2017. The sample size constituted of 75 randomly selected cases and 75 purposively selected controls. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire and Epi Info version 7.2.1.0 was used to conduct descriptive, bivariate and multivariate analyses of the factors associated with contracting malaria. Results: Fifty-two percent of the cases were females and the mean age of cases was 29 13 years. Cases were diag- nosed using rapid diagnostic tests. Sleeping in a house with open eaves (OR: 2.97; 95% CI± 1.44–6.16; p < 0.01), spend- ing the evenings outdoors (OR: 2.24; 95% CI 1.04–4.85; p 0.037) and sleeping in a poorly constructed house (OR: 4.33; 95% CI 1.97–9.51; p < 0.01) were signifcantly associated= with contracting malaria while closing eaves was protec- tive (OR: 0.45; 95% CI 0.20–1.02; p 0.055). -

University of Pretoria Etd – Nsingo, SAM (2005)
University of Pretoria etd – Nsingo, S A M (2005) - 181 - CHAPTER FOUR THE PROFILE, STRUCTURE AND OPERATIONS OF THE BEITBRIDGE RURAL DISTRICT COUNCIL INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the basic features of the Beitbridge District. It looks at the organisation of the Beitbridge Rural District Council and explores its operations as provided in the Rural District Councils Act of 1988 and the by-laws of council. The chapter then looks at performance measurement in the public sector and local government, in particular. This is followed by a discussion of democratic participation, service provision and managerial excellence including highlights of their relevance to this study. BEITBRIDGE DISTRICT PROFILE The Beitbridge District is located in the most southern part of Zimbabwe. It is one of the six districts of Matebeleland South province. It shares borders with Botswana in the west, South Africa in the south, Mwenezi District from the north to the east, and Gwanda District in the northwest. Its geographical area is a result of amalgamating the Beitbridge District Council and part of the Mwenezi- Beitbridge Rural District Council. The other part of the latter was amalgamated with the Mwenezi District to form what is now the Mwenezi District Council. Significant to note, from the onset, is that Beitbridge District is one of the least developed districts in Zimbabwe. Worse still, it is located in region five (5), which is characterized by poor rainfall and very hot conditions. As such, it is not suitable for crop farming, although this takes place through irrigation schemes. University of Pretoria etd – Nsingo, S A M (2005) - 182 - The district is made up of an undulating landscape with shrubs, isolated hills and four big rivers. -
An Agrarian History of the Mwenezi District, Zimbabwe, 1980-2004

ALLISON GOEBEL (QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY, CANADA) DR. FRANK MATOSE (PLAAS, UWC) ii ABSTRACT An Agrarian History of the Mwenezi District, Zimbabwe, 1980-2004 Kudakwashe Manganga M. PHIL Thesis, Programme for Land and Agrarian Studies, Department of Government, University of the Western Cape. The thesis examines continuity and change in the agrarian history of the Mwenezi district, southern Zimbabwe since 1980. It analyses agrarian reforms, agrarian practices and development initiatives in the district and situates them in the localised livelihood strategies of different people within Dinhe Communal Area and Mangondi Resettlement Area in lieu of the Fast Track Land Reform Programme (FTLRP) since 2000. The thesis also examines the livelihood opportunities and challenges presented by the FTLRP to the inhabitants of Mwenezi. Land reform can be an opportunity that can help communities in drought prone districts like Mwenezi to attain food security and reduce dependence on food handouts from donor agencies and the government. The land reform presented the new farmers with multiple land use patterns and livelihood opportunities. In addition, the thesis locates the current programme in the context of previous post-colonial agrarian reforms in Mwenezi. It also emphasizes the importance of diversifying rural livelihood portfolios and argues for the establishment of smallholder irrigation schemes in Mwenezi using water from the Manyuchi dam, the fourth largest dam in Zimbabwe. -

BOTTOM UP DEVELOPMENT IN DECENTRALIZED COMMON PROPERTY REGIMES: THE EXPERIENCES OF TWO DISTRICT COUNCILS IN SOUTHEASTERN ZIMBABWE John H. Peterson, Jr., Professor, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, PO Drawer C, Mississippi State, MS 39762; Fulbright Visiting Lecturer 1990-1991, Centre for Applied Social Science, University of Zimbabwe, PO Box MP 167, Mount Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe Paper presented at the International Association for the Study of Common Property, Common Property Conference, Winnipeg, Canada, September 26 - 29, 1991 The Communal Areas Management Program for Indigenous Resources (CAMPFIRE) in Zimbabwe seeks to substitute decentralized management and control of natural resources, especially wildlife, for centralized ownership and control. The preservation and utilization of Zimbabwe's natural resources through the CAMPFIRE program involves some important issues in addition to decentralization including conservation through utilization, and sustained development. A fifteen minute presentation can not begin to cover even one of these issues. I am focusing on decentralization because I was struck by the frequency with which leaders at the national and even district level continue to question the degree to which people at the community level are competent to made decisions about common property resources. Decentralization of common property resources raises the question of how far and to whom. There are no simple answers. But there are many potential recipients for decentralized control, each with a case for maintaining controls at particular levels or within some existing institutions. The greatest devolution of management would be to socio- governmental units with the least formal structures - the village and the ward. These people are most familiar with the wildlife and the practical realities of its management. -

Zimbabwe National Dialogue Report on Findings
Leave No One Behind: Zimbabwe National Dialogue Report on Findings Please include the following: survey results, data charts, input from each of the marginalized groups, overall analysis, geographic analysis, and key policy asks or suggestions for decision makers as well as for other stakeholders to implement. Guiding questions: 1) Who are the groups and communities in your country that are being left behind? Zimbabwe has gone through economic, social and governance turbulences for a prolonged period of time during the era of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 2000 to 2015. During this period the welfare of disenfranchised groups such as children, person with disabilities, the elderly, persons living with HIV and AIDS, women, youth and the rural community were deprived of the social services support, leading to further marginalizing. The poor performance of the economy saw the human development index worsen as the issues of health, education and life expectancy continued to deteriorate. Zimbabwe has remained in the low human development category, reaching its lowest in the recession period, 2000 to 2008, before marginally increasing under the recovery phase, 2009 to 2014. During this time, children drooped out of school and problem was worse for the girl child. Figure 1: Marginalized groups in Zimbabwe Source: NANGO survey 2016 for the Leave No One behind According to the survey, as shown in figure 1: Children were found to be the most vulnerable groups in the society, followed by persons with disabilities. These are the groups, which are left out the most in democratic processes. In addition, people with communicable diseases and women are also highly marginalized according to the survey results as shown. -
