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.

  • Winfrid Tamba Thesis
    Extension Agents’ Effectiveness and Good Agricultural Practices Adoption: A Case Study Amongst Cashew Nut Growers in the Masasi District Council, Tanzania. Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Winfrid Erneus Tamba Graduate Program in Agricultural and Extension Education The Ohio State University 2017 Master's Examination Committee: Dr. Mary T. Rodriguez, Advisor Dr. Scott D. Scheer, Advisor Copyrighted by Winfrid Erneus Tamba 2017 Abstract Tanzania is a union between mainland of Tanganyika and the Zanzibar islands. It is an East African country on the Indian Ocean. The country’s economy depends heavily on agriculture, which accounts for more than one-quarter of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The sector is characterized by subsistence farming occupied by smallholder famers who on average cultivate less than a hectare. Being the largest sector of the economy in Tanzania, agriculture contributes greatly to food security by providing food for both rural and urban communities. It also employs more than 75 percent of the labor force, thus it is a main source of income for most of the people particularly the rural communities. Most of the farmers engage in both crop growing and livestock keeping activities. Livestock kept include cattle, sheep, goats, and chicken while food crops grown include maize, wheat, cassava, bananas, fruits and vegetables. Cash crops include cashew nuts, coffee, sisal, tea, cotton, pyrethrum, tobacco, and cloves. Cashew is among the cash crop that brings foreign currency in Tanzania. It is the main source of income for farmers in Masasi district.

  • Food Security & Large-Scale Land Acquisitions: the Cases of Tanzania and Ethiopia
    Food security and large-scale land acquisitions: The cases of Tanzania and Ethiopia A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science of the McMicken College of Arts and Sciences by Jennifer Dye M.A. Political Science, University of Cincinnati, 2010 J.D. University of Cincinnati College of Law, 2010 March 2014 Committee Chair: Laura Jenkins, Ph.D. Abstract Food security is often misunderstood: overlooked in security studies and essentialized as a biological and nutritional issue, or as simply supply not matching demand. Yet, food security rests on underlying social and political questions of power, entitlement, distribution, and access within the food system and land tenure. This dissertation seeks to unearth these underlying social and political questions by examining how external large-scale land acquisitions affect food security and land tenure in the developing African state. This dissertation argues that external large-scale land acquisitions have a primarily negative impact on both food security and land tenure. Findings from the cases of Tanzania and Ethiopia show that large-scale land acquisitions maintain a system of social, political, and economic entitlements that foster uneven structures that result in low levels of food security and access to land. i ii Dedicated to Floyd and my parents iii Acknowledgements During my time in graduate school, I have received support and encouragement from a great number of individuals from various departments, colleges, and in my personal life. Thank you to all who have helped me as I worked on my dissertation.

Keys to success included: Effective collaboration between the Ministry of Health, local government, and implementing partners Social mobilization to sensitize the community about the importance of net use Development of a mobile application to facilitate data collection and analysis ABSTRACT Tanzania successfully scaled up coverage of long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) through mass campaigns. To sustain these gains, a school-based approach was piloted in the country’s Southern Zone starting in 2013, called the School Net Program 1 (SNP1). We report on the design, implementation, monitoring, and outputs of the second round (SNP2) undertaken in 2014. SNP2 was conducted in all schools in Lindi, Mtwara, and Ruvuma regions, targeting students in primary (Standards 1, 3, 5, and 7) and secondary (Forms 2 and 4) schools and all teachers.
