  • The Political Ecology of Poverty Alleviation in Zimbabwe's Communal Areas Management Programme for Indigenous Resources CAMPFIRE) B
    Geoforum 33 2002) 1±14 www.elsevier.com/locate/geoforum The political ecology of poverty alleviation in Zimbabwe's Communal Areas Management Programme for Indigenous Resources CAMPFIRE) B. Ikubolajeh Logan a, William G. Moseley b a Department of Geography, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602-2502, USA b Department of Geography, Northern Illinois University, Dekalb, IL 60115-2854, USA Received 13 November 2000; in revised form 25 June 2001 Abstract The CAMPFIRE program in Zimbabwe is one of a `new breed' of strategies designed to tackle environmental management at the grassroots level. CAMPFIRE aims to help rural communities to manage their resources, especially wildlife, for their own local development. The program's central objective is to alleviate rural poverty by giving rural communities autonomy over resource management and to demonstrate to them that wildlife is not necessarily a hindrance to arable agriculture, ``but a resource that could be managed and `cultivated' to provide income and food''. In this paper, we assess two important elements of CAMPFIRE: poverty alleviation and local empowerment and comment on the program's performance in achieving these highly interconnected objectives. We analyze the program's achievements in poverty alleviation by exploring tenurial patterns, resource ownership and the allocation of proceeds from resource exploitation; and its progress in local empowerment by examining its administrative and decision making structures. We conclude that the program cannot eectively achieve the goal of poverty alleviation without ®rst addressing the administrative and legal structures that underlie the country's political ecology.

    Country Advice Zimbabwe Zimbabwe – ZWE39076 – ZANU-PF – Violence and intimidation – Forced recruitment – Chivhu, East Mashonaland 27 July 2011 1. Please provide information on ZANU-PF related violence, intimidation, and forcible recruitment etc. in and around Chivhu in the period between 2007 - present. There have been a number of instances of violence and intimidation related to Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF) in and around Chivhu since 2007, particularly in the lead-up to and during election campaigns. In June 2011, a Movement for Democratic Change – Tsvangirai (MDC-T) ward chairman in Chivhu was reportedly abducted by suspected ZANU-PF activists, and at the time of writing, his whereabouts remained unknown. Timothy Mugari was abducted following a ZANU-PF rally attended by the ZANU-PF political commissar, who reportedly questioned why the area “was harbouring „sell-outs‟ after seeing a red flag flying at Mugari‟s homestead”. The following day, ZANU- PF activists reportedly asked Mugari why he was flying an MDC-T flag, before forcing him into their vehicle. While the colour red is synonymous with the MDC-T, neighbours reportedly claimed that the flag was not political, and rather represented an apostolic church.1 In April 2011, The Independent reported that ZANU-PF youths had been engaging in acts of intimidation and coercion, and were forcing people to sign an anti-sanctions petition under the pretence that signing said petition was compulsory. School headmasters in Chivhu were reportedly ordered to provide centres for signing, and some shop owners were told that they would lose their licences if they did not sign the petition.

    International Journal on New Trends in Education and Their Implications July, August, September 2011 Volume: 2 Issue: 3 Article: 10 ISSN 1309-6249 ASSESSING THE RECEPTIVITY OF OPEN AND DISTANCE LEARNING PROGRAMMES AMONG ORDINARY AND ADVANCED LEVEL STUDENTS: A CASE OF THE ZIMBABWE OPEN UNIVERSITY Richard BUKALIYA Zimbabwe Open University, Mashonaland East Region, Marondera, ZIMBABWE Farirai MUSIKA Zimbabwe Open University, Mashonaland East Region, Marondera, ZIMBABWE ABSTRACT The present study was undertaken to establish Ordinary and Advanced level students` receptivity of Open and Distance Learning Programmes offered by Zimbabwe Open University. With the proliferation of several higher education institutions, which include among them the eleven universities in the country and at one polytechnic in each of the ten provinces of Zimbabwe, competition for students has become stiff as enrolments in some of these institutions continue to plummet. There was, therefore, need to establish how receptive these young adults were of the ODL mode, in light of the introduction of the Enhanced Tutorial Programme (ETP) as an innovation in the ODL system at the Zimbabwe Open University. A total of 100 student respondents made up the sample which consisted of 64 (64%) male and 36 (36%) female students whose age range was between 16 and 22 years. These were drawn from rural and urban schools located in Chegutu district. Results show that a slight majority of 56 students preferred to study with the ZOU because of their area of residence which was prohibitive for them to enrol at a conventional college. The respondents overwhelmingly rejected the notion that there was poor quality of education at the ZOU.
