Box 219, Lilongwe, Malawi DOI: 10.18697/ajfand.80.16730 12854 ABSTRACT The prevalence of stunting is high in Malawi, affecting about one third (31.2%) of children aged 6-23 months. Persistent inappropriate feeding practices are some of the major causes of stunting in young children. This study was conducted to determine risk factors associated with stunting among infants and young children aged 6-23 months in Dedza district in Central Malawi. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 12 villages in Mayani Extension Planning Area (EPA), targeting households with children aged 6- 23 months. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from the primary caregivers on household socioeconomic characteristics, household food availability, dietary diversity, responsive feeding practices among mothers and caregivers, age of introduction of complementary foods, frequency of feeding, types of foods and dietary diversity of children. Anthropometric data (weight and recumbent length) for children were measured using standard procedures. The Multivariate Logistic Regression Analysis was performed to study the independent associations of various determinants on prevalence of stunting with prevalence of stunting as a dependent variable.

The National School Mapping and Micro-Planning Project in the Republic of Malawi - Micro-Planning Component
No. Ministry of Education, Japan International Science and Technology Cooperation Agency Republic of Malawi THE NATIONAL SCHOOL MAPPING AND MICRO-PLANNING PROJECT IN THE REPUBLIC OF MALAWI - MICRO-PLANNING COMPONENT- FINAL REPORT AUGUST 2002 KRI INTERNATIONAL CORP. SSF JR 02-118 PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of the Republic of Malawi, the Government of Japan decided to conduct the National School Mapping and Micro-Planning Project and entrusted it to the Japan International Cooperation Agency. JICA selected and dispatched a project team headed by Ms. Yoko Ishida of the KRI International Corp., to Malawi, four times between November 2000 and July 2002. In addition, JICA set up an advisory committee headed by Mr. Nobuhide Sawamura, Associate Professor of Hiroshima University, between October 2000 and June 2002, which examined the project from specialist and technical point of view. The team held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of Malawi and implemented the project activities in the target areas. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further analyses and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of the quality education provision in Malawi and to the enhancement of friendly relations between our two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials concerned of the Government of Malawi for their close cooperation extended to the project.

Modeling and Forecasting of Engraulicypris Sardella (Usipa) Yields from Mangochi Artisanal Fisheries of Lake Malawi Using Holt Exponential Smoothing Method
Modeling and Forecasting of Engraulicypris sardella (Usipa) Yields from Mangochi Artisanal Fisheries of Lake Malawi using Holt Exponential Smoothing Method Mexford Mulumpwa1,2*, Wilson Jere2, Tasokwa Kakota3, Austin Mtethiwa2 & Jeremiah Kang’ombe2 1Department of Fisheries, Monkey Bay Fisheries Research Station, P.O. Box 27, Monkey Bay, Malawi. 2Aquaculture and Fisheries Sciences Department, Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Bunda Campus, P. O. Box 219, Lilongwe, Malawi. 3Department of Basic Sciences, Lilongwe University of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Bunda Campus, P. O. Box 219, Lilongwe, Malawi. *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Abstract This study was aimed at modelling and forecasting Engraulicypris sardella (Usipa) species yield from artisanal fishery on Lake Malawi in Mangochi District. The study was based on secondary count time series data on fish catches during the years of 1976 through 2012 provided by Fisheries Research Unit of the Department of Fisheries in Malawi. The study considered Holt exponential smoothing method to select an appropriate stochastic model for forecasting the Usipa species yields. Appropriate model was chosen based on Holt‟s exponential parameters α (alpha) and β (beta) Box – Ljung statistics and distribution of residual errors among others were estimated. The Holt‟s exponential smoothing method showed that the artisanal fishery landings of Usipa would increase to 22,849.4 tonnes in year 2022 which is 2,135.76 tonnes more than the landings in the year 2010 of 20,713.64 tonnes assuming that the biological and ecological factors remain the same. The forecast mean for Usipa is predicted to be 22,849.4 tonnes through the year 2022.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT This thesis presents an interpretation of nyau masks of the Chewa people in the central region of Malawi. Theoretically, ethnography in the thesis is informed by text interpretation as in the writings of Paul Ricoeur (1979). Texts in the thesis include the inscription of a performance, narratives of ritual events, oral discourse, and the masks themselves. Masks as texts include form, color, imagery, portraiture, construction and materials used, naming, roles, and movement; and the discourse about these. In the thesis masks are inscribed in their various roles as they are performed in funerals, initiations into the nyau society, and funeral remembrance dances. Each Chapter develops one context of masks and masking, ending with an interpretation of that context.
