Such estimates will form the basis for the final I design of the individual water supplies and for additional source I investigations where selected sources do not have sufficient yields.

FERTILITY LEVELS AND PATTERNS AMONG HIV-INFECTED AND UN-INFECTED WOMEN IN KYELA DISTRICT A CASE STUDY FROM TANZANIA. 1.0. Introduction The fertility transition, seen in many parts of the world, has been slow to start in Sub-Saharan Africa, although recent evidence suggests a moderate of fertility in few countries (UNAIDS, 2003). It is not clear how the HIV epidemic will alter future levels of fertility and what impact it will have on the nature of fertility transition. The contribution of HIV/AIDS to the fertility transition is not currently evident due to the fact that. For four reasons. First, isolating the factor of HIV/AIDS from other factors of fertility is a complex process because it is not a proximate variable, but one of the contributors to several proximate determinants of fertility. Secondly, for the impact of the epidemic to be felt, the prevalence has to be high in the region of 20 percent and be sustainable for a long time, about a decade or longer. Thirdly, behavior factors may reduce fertility of women with symptoms of AIDS, but not those asymptomatic. Fourthly, as infant mortality increases, the need to replace dead children and produce more to ensure survival of some will challenge implementation of family planning programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa and perhaps increase fertility. Also, increasing HIV prevalence in the region will mean that HIV/AIDS programmes will compete for resources with family planning progrmmes, which would weaken the latter (UNAIDS, 2003). Recent studies in Sub Saharan Africa have shown that fertility is reduced among HIV infected women compare with uninfected women. -

International Journal of Science Arts and Commerce a History of Rungwe
International Journal of Science Arts and Commerce Vol. 2 No. 2, April-2017 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENCE ARTS AND COMMERCE A HISTORY OF RUNGWE DISTRICT IN TANZANIA FROM PRE-COLONIAL TO COLONIAL PERIOD Reginald Mwakilambo Department of History, The Open University of Tanzania Abstract This article highlights the historical events that occurred in Rungwe District, Tanzania in pre colonial and colonial periods. It gives an analysis of the situation during the pre-colonial period and how the district became integrated in the capitalist economic system after the establishment of colonial rule. Capitalist relations were in terms of the establishment of cash crop estates as an element of colonial economic structure. Both peasant-type and estate productions involved productions for exports to metropolitan countries by firmly solidifying world capitalist economic relations as the metropoles were set ready to receive processed products from the district. 1.0 Introduction Rungwe District lies between longitudes “80 30′ and 90 30′ E” and latitudes “330 and 340 S” in the southern part of Mbeya Region.1 It is bordered by Mbeya District to the North, Makete District in Njombe Region to the East, Kyela District in the South and Ileje District in the West. The district consists of four divisions, which are “Ukukwe, Busokelo, Pakati and Tukuyu.”2 The geographical boundaries of the district have never been fixed in the past, but they have been changing by differently defined by the previous colonial governments of the Germans and British, and later by the independent government of the United Republic of Tanzania. The beginning of German colonial rule in Rungwe District was in 1893 by the German explorer Major Von Wissmann who founded a government station at a place along Lake Nyasa which was given the name “Langenburg” in the honour of “Prinz von Hohenlohe-Langenburg” the champion of German colonial endeavours (currently known as Lumbila in Ludewa District). -

Ecological Pressures and Heritage Resources in Rungwe District, Southern Highlands of Tanzania

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Rungwe district in Mbeya region is amongst the many areas in Tanzania which until recently have remained terra incognita in terms of ecological and archaeological research. Systematic archaeo- logical investigations, based on heritage management and conservation have not been undertaken. In due regard, we decided to carry out the first systematic survey, documentation and recording of the heritage resources of this district. Our investigations emphasized public participation in the management and conservation of heritage resources with the involvement of local people the central focus. We were also motivated by the desire to launch community outreach programmes and establish the “Cultural-Ecological Research and Scientific Information Centre” in Masoko-Kisi- ba Ward. There were several meetings with the local people and the village officials to discuss plans. It was decided that the establishment of the deemed scientific and information centre would abide with the existing conservation laws in order to effectively address the strategies for protection, conservation and management of both natural and cultural heritage resources. -

INTRODUCTION In accordance with a working paper: "Minimum Flow Assessment at Village Level - DANIDA - CCKK, September 1984", a low flow study programme was performed for a selected number of villages in the three regions of Iringa, Mbeya, and Ruvuma. The aim of the study was to provide the best possible estimates of the 10-year minimum flows at the selected sources of the village water supply schemes. The results of the low flow study are given in the DANIDA - CCKK report: "Hydrology - Low Flow Gaugings 1984", and it was found that several of the selected streams, were not able to meet the 2006 year demand for the villages. It was recommended to make a new low flow programme during the dry season of 1985 for the problematic vil- lages. -
Tanzania Work Plan FY 2018 Project Year 7
Tanzania Work Plan FY 2018 Project Year 7 October 2017–September 2018 ENVISION is a global project led by RTI International in partnership with CBM International, The Carter Center, Fred Hollows Foundation, Helen Keller International, IMA World Health, Light for the World, Sightsavers, and World Vision. ENVISION is funded by the US Agency for International Development under cooperative agreement No. AID-OAA-A-11-00048. The period of performance for ENVISION is September 30, 2011, through September 30, 2019. The author’s views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the US Agency for International Development or the United States Government. ENVISION Project Overview The US Agency for International Development (USAID)’s ENVISION project (2011–2019) is designed to support the vision of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member states by targeting the control and elimination of seven neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), including lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis (OV), schistosomiasis (SCH), three soil-transmitted helminths (STH; roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm), and trachoma. ENVISION’s goal is to strengthen NTD programming at global and country levels and support ministries of health (MOHs) to achieve their NTD control and elimination goals. At the global level, ENVISION—in close coordination and collaboration with WHO, USAID, and other stakeholders—contributes to several technical areas in support of global NTD control and elimination goals, including the following: • Drug and diagnostics procurement, where global donation programs are unavailable • Capacity strengthening • Management and implementation of ENVISION’s Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) • Disease mapping • NTD policy and technical guideline development • NTD monitoring and evaluation (M&E).
