Chapter 5 Basic Policy for Development of the Sena Corridor
CHAPTER 5 BASIC POLICY FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE SENA CORRIDOR Project for the Study on Development of the Sena Corridor Final Report Chapter 5 Basic Policy for Development of the Sena Corridor Chapter 5 Basic Policy for Development of the Sena Corridor 5.1 Significance of Development of the Sena Corridor 5.1.1 Historical Background Table 5-1 and Figure 5-1 show the historical background of Malawi’s transport network. The major transitions of the transport network are as follows. a) Before 1970: The Sena Corridor was the major gateway to Malawi • The branch line of the Sena Railway was the main transport mode, supplemented by the Shire–Zambezi inland waterway transport. • Export and import goods were mainly transported by railway due to cheaper transport cost. b) 1970–1983: The Sena Corridor and Nacala Railway were the major gateways to Malawi • The branch line of the Sena and the Nacala Railway were the main transport modes even after civil war broke out in Mozambique. • Inland waterway transport lost its function. c) 1983–1992: Malawi suffered greatly from loss of access to ports in Mozambique • Due to the civil war, all transport links through Mozambique were cut. • Most of the cargoes between Malawi and RSA were transported via Zambia and Zimbabwe, incurring much longer transport times and higher costs.

A History of Contestations Over Natural Resources in the Lower Tchiri Valley in Malawi, C.1850-1960
A history of contestations over natural resources in the Lower Tchiri Valley in Malawi, c.1850-1960. by George Berson Diston Jawali Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof Sandra Swart March 2015 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am authorship owner thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Signature: .................................................... Date: ........................................... Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study explores hunting in the Lower Tchiri Valley as an arena in which African and white hunting interests as well as conservation policies precipitated insurgence and accommodation, collaboration and conflict. Precolonial Magololo hunters, having supplanted Mang’anja hunting as a result of the superiority of their hunting technology by 1861, found themselves in competition with white sport hunters over game animals. Unequal power relations between the Magololo hunters and the white hunters, who formed part of the colonial administration in Nyasaland from the 1890s, saw the introduction of game laws that led to wild animals and their sanctuaries becoming contested terrains. Colonial officials and some whites enjoyed privileges in hunting game whose declining populations were blamed on Africans in general and the Magololo in particular. Some Africans and certain whites devised hunting strategies that brought them into conflict with the colonial state. -
Final Report of the Needs Assessment
Assessment of the capacity of the health services to provide essential obstetric care in Tete province, Mozambique Final report of the needs assessment December 2000 1. INTRODUCTION Maternal mortality is a serious health problem in Mozambique. While the last census in 1997 and the DHS1 did not calculate exactly the maternal mortality ratio in the country, careful estimates indicate the MMR to be between 500 and 1500 deaths per 100 000 live births, but no reference is given. The only reliable information that is available comes from a sisterhood survey done in 19952. Even with these important differences in estimation of the exact figure of the maternal mortality, the problem is being recognised as an important one for the health planners and the donors in the country. Mozambique has made a clear commitment to reduce the maternal mortality in the country. In 1998 a first nation-wide Safe Motherhood needs asssesment3 was done, which was followed in the same year by a systematic review of the causes of 90 maternal deaths4. Following this dynamism within the ministry of health, a national strategy to reduce the maternal morbidity and mortality and neonatal mortality was formulated in 1999 and adopted in 2000, the document was launched as the: " …Estrategias para a redução da morbimortalidade materna e neonatal." This document 5forms the basis for formulating interventions to reduce maternal mortality in Mozambique. It is based on strengthening the health services with the concept of the provision of obstetric care ( basic and comprehensive) with an adequate referral system, community involvement and an improved data collection system. -

The family settled in Natal where Thomas and his brothers John and Stewart gained their first farming ex perience. In 1892 the three brothers set off for Rhodesia with eight ox- wagons. Three months later they had completed the 700 mile trek to Fort Victoria. Here they opened a store made of whisky cases and roofed over with the tarpaulins that had covered their wagons. Progress was at first slow, nevertheless, branches were opened in Salisbury in 1893, Bulawayo and Gwelo in 1894, and in Umtali in 1897. From these small beginnings a vast network of stores, hotels, farms, mines and auxilliary undertakings was built up. These ventures culminated in the formation of the Thomas Meikle Trust and Investment Company in 1933. The success of these many enterprises was mainly due to Thomas Meikle's foresight and his business acumen, coupled with his ability to judge character and gather around him a loyal and efficient staff. His great pioneering spirit lives on: today the Meikle Organisation is still playing an important part in the development of Rhodesia. -
High Potential in the Lower Zambezi
2 High Potential in the Lower Zambezi A way forward to sustainable development Version 1.0 High Potential in the Lower Zambezi High Potential in the Lower Zambezi A way forward to sustainable development Delta Alliance Delta Alliance is an international knowledge network with the mission of improving the resilience of the world’s deltas, by bringing together people who live and work in the deltas. Delta Alliance has currently ten network Wings worldwide where activities are focused. Delta Alliance is exploring the possibility to connect the Zambezi Delta to this network and to establish a network Wing in Mozambique. WWF WWF is a worldwide organization with the mission to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. WWF recently launched (June 2010) the World Estuary Alliance (WEA). WEA focuses on knowledge exchange and information sharing on the value of healthy estuaries and maximiza- tion of the potential and benefits of ‘natural systems’ in sustainable estuary development. In Mozambique WWF works amongst others in the Zambezi Basin and Delta on environmental flows and mangrove conservation. Frank Dekker (Delta Alliance) Wim van Driel (Delta Alliance) From 28 August to 2 September 2011, WWF and Delta Alliance have organized a joint mission to the Lower Zambezi Basin and Delta, in order to contribute to the sustainable development, knowing that large developments are just emerging. Bart Geenen (WWF) The delegation of this mission consisted of Companies (DHV and Royal Haskoning), NGOs (WWF), Knowledge Institutes (Wageningen University, Deltares, Alterra, and Eduardo Mondlane University) and Government Institutes (ARA Zambeze). -
Organisational Modalities of Farmer-Led Irrigation Development in Tsangano District, Mozambique

Organisational modalities of farmer-led irrigation development in Tsangano District, Mozambique. Water Alternatives 7(2): 414-433 Organisational Modalities of Farmer-led Irrigation Development in Tsangano District, Mozambique Francis Nkoka World Bank, Lilongwe, Malawi; [email protected] Gert Jan Veldwisch Water Resources Management Group of Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands; [email protected] Alex Bolding Water Resources Management Group of Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands; [email protected] ABSTRACT: This paper examines the organisational modalities of farmer-led irrigation systems in Tsangano, Mozambique, which has expanded over large areas with minimal external support. By looking at their historic development trajectories and the integrated nature of land and water resources, technological objects, and people three organisational modalities of irrigation system O&M are distinguished for furrow systems in Tsangano: communal systems, former Portuguese systems, and family systems. Each organisational modality is based on a particular development/investment history through which hydraulic property relations have been established and sustained. The findings cast serious doubts on the central tenets of neo-institutional policy prescriptions. This is particularly relevant as there is a renewed interest in large-scale irrigation development in Africa through public investment, after very limited investments between 1985 and 2005. Public irrigation investment in Africa has been widely perceived to have performed poorly. Farmer-led irrigation development, could be the basis for a cost-effective alternative to scale investments that can result in sustainable and pro-poor smallholder irrigation. -
