Coastal Profile for Tanzania 2014 Coastal Profile for Tanzania 2014 - Map and Table Volume III Investment Prioritization for Resilient Livelihoods and Ecosystems in Coastal Zones of Tanzania Investment Prioritization for Resilient Livelihoods and Introduction Ecosystems in Coastal Zones of Tanzania The Government of Tanzania with World Bank assistance has through the project “Investment Prioritisation for Resilient Livelihoods and Ecosystems in Coastal Zones of Tanzania” identified and prioritised threats and developed fundable adaptation measures to address the most pertinent of these threats. The study has been financed by the World Bank (WB) with trust funds provided by Nordic Development Fund (NDF). The client for the project is Fisheries Department at the Ministry for Livestock and Fisheries Development (MLFD) in Dar es Salaam and the Department of Fisheries and Marine Resources at the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Environment (MALE) in Zanzibar. The objective of the study has been to prioritise geographically and thematically the actions to promote sustainable coastal livelihoods and ecosystems in Tanzania (both Mainland and Zanzibar). The results comprise proposals for measures for coastal management and climate change adaptation in Tanzania, which the Government of Tanzania, NGOs, and donors can use to guide their support and investments over a five year period and beyond. This document is Volume III of a rapidly compiled Coastal Profile presenting a baseline on current information in the coastal areas of mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar. It presents the Geographical Information System developed and applied in the study, as well as a series of maps and tables. Further details on the project are provided in the thematic part of the Coastal Profiles for Tanzania and Zanzibar (Volume I).

  • Zanzibar: Religion, Politics, and Identity in East Africa
    CAS PO 204: Zanzibar: Religion, Politics, and Identity in East Africa Timothy Longman Summer 2013 M-R 10-12, plus field trips May 27-July 3 Email: [email protected] The islands of Zanzibar have been a crossroads of African, Persian, Arab, Indian, and European cultures for two millenniums, making them a unique setting in which to explore issues of religion, ethnicity, race, gender, class, and politics in East Africa. From about 1000 A.D., the first permanent settlers began to arrive from the African mainland, and they mixed with Arab, Persian, and Indian traders who had used Zanzibar as a port for centuries. Zanzibar was linked early into the Muslim world, with the first mosque in the southern hemisphere was built in there in 1107. Zanzibar’s two main islands of Unguja and Pemba ultimately developed a plantation economy, with slaves imported from the mainland growing cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, and other spices. Zanzibar’s strategic and economic importance made it a coveted prize, as it was alternately controlled by the Portuguese, Omani, and British empires. Zanzibar became the launching site for H.M. Stanley and other explorers, the center for many missionary groups, and an important base for European colonial expansion into East Africa. This course explores the role of Zanzibar as a gateway between East Africa and the Middle East, South Asia, and Europe and the fascinating legacy of social diversity left by the many different cultures that have passed through the islands. We study the contrast between the historical development of mainland East Africa and the Swahili coastal communities that range from Mozambique to Somalia and the role of Zanzibar in the expansion of colonialism into East Africa.

    The United Republic of Tanzania Basic Demographic and Socio- Economic Profile 2014 Key Findings 2012 Population and Housing Census Overview The United Republic of Tanzania carried out a Population and Housing Census (PHC) on 26th August, 2012. The 2012 PHC was the fifth Census after the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar in 1964. Other censuses were carried out in 1967, 1978, 1988 and 2002. The fundamental objective of the 2012 PHC was to provide information on the size, distribution, composition and other socio-economic characteristics of the population, as well as information on housing conditions. The 2012 PHC also used a Community Questionnaire to collect information on the availability of socio-economic services such as schools and hospitals. The information provided is useful for monitoring and evaluating the country’s development programmes. The 2012 Tanzania Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profile provide short descriptive analyses and related tables on main thematic areas covered in the 2012 PHC. Topics covered in the report include population size and growth, age and sex distributions; household composition, marital status, disability, citizenship, birth registration and diaspora. Other topics are fertility and mortality, survival of parents, literacy and education, economic activities, housing conditions, ownership of assets, household amenities, agriculture and livestock; and social security funds. This booklet gives a summary of the 2012 Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profiles of Tanzania (Volume IIIA), Tanzania Mainland (Volume IIIB), Tanzania Zanzibar (Volume IIIC) and a Detailed Statistical Tables for National Basic Demographic and Socio-Economic Profile (Volume IIID).

  • Urban Expansion in Zanzibar City, Tanzania
    1 Urban expansion in Zanzibar City, Tanzania: Analyzing quantity, spatial patterns and effects of 2 alternative planning approaches 3 4 MO Kukkonen, MJ Muhammad, N Käyhkö, M Luoto 5 6 Land Use Policy, 2018 - Elsevier 7 8 Abstract 9 Rapid urbanization and urban area expansion of sub-Saharan Africa are megatrends of the 21st century. 10 Addressing environmental and social problems related to these megatrends requires faster and more efficient 11 urban planning that is based on measured information of the expansion patterns. Urban growth prediction 12 models (UGPMs) provide tools for generating such information by predicting future urban expansion patterns 13 and allowing testing of alternative planning scenarios. We created an UGPM for Zanzibar City in Tanzania by 14 measuring urban expansion in 2004–2009 and 2009–2013, linking the expansion to explanatory variables with 15 a generalized additive model, measuring the accuracy of the created model, and projecting urban growth until 16 2030 with the business-as-usual and various alternative planning scenarios. Based on the results, the urban 17 area of Zanzibar City expanded by 40% from 2004 to 2013. Spatial patterns of expansion were largely driven 18 by the already existing building pattern and land-use constraints. The created model predicted future urban 19 expansion moderately well and had an area under the curve value of 0.855 and a true skill statistic result of 20 0.568. Based on the business-as-usual scenario, the city will expand 89% from 2013 until 2030 and will 21 continue to sprawl to new regions at the outskirts of the current built-up area.
