Thesis Submitted Fulfil Requirements for the Degree of in Ment Doctor of Philosophy of the 201 Healthy chickens, healthy children? Exploring contributions of village poultry-keeping to the diets and growth of young children in rural Tanzania by Julia de Bruyn A thesis submitted fulfil requirements for the degree of in ment Doctor of Philosophy of the 201 8 School of Life and Environmental Sciences Faculty of Science University of Sydney Statement of originality This thesis is submitted to he University of Sydney in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.t The material presented has not been submitted for a degree at this or any other institution. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work, and that all sources and assistance received in preparing this thesis have been acknowledged. Julia de Bruyn December 2017 i Abstract One in three Tanzanian children under five years of age is affected by stunting: an outcome of chronic undernutrition and an indication of impaired physical and cognitive development. The potential for livestock-keeping to contribute positively to children’s growth, including by providing nutrient-dense animal-source foods and household income to enable other nutritious food purchases, has been well-described but poorly demonstrated. Village chickens are an accessible and versatile form of livestock, kept in small free-ranging flocks by many households in resource-poor settings and often managed by women. This mixed methods research was undertaken in villages of Manyoni District in central Tanzania, alongside a project establishing a community-based vaccination service against Newcastle disease in village chickens. Significantly larger chicken flock sizes were identified as an outcome of vaccinating in a given campaign and of continuing to vaccinate at four-monthly intervals, compared to vaccinating less often or not at all. Chicken meat and eggs were infrequently eaten during the study period, with eggs more commonly hatched to increase chicken numbers and chickens retained for sale in times of need. Consumption of poultry products by mothers and their young children was closely linked and no gender-based differences in children’s consumption frequency were found. Analysis of national and regional food composition tables highlighted the need for recent and locally-derived data on the nutrient content of animal-source foods, to better reflect the products of indigenous livestock in low-input management systems. This thesis did not identify a significant impact of chicken-keeping on the height-for-age of children over a two- year period; however, importantly, it found no negative health or growth impacts which would undermine a continued focus on poultry interventions as a strategy to sustainably enhance nutrition at a household level. ii Acknowledgements While the final months spent writing this thesis have seemed a solitary venture, the underlying body of work has involved a team which has spanned several countries, languages and research disciplines. My entry into the field of international food and nutrition security in late 2013 marked an abrupt shift from a career as a clinical veterinarian. The learning curve which has followed would not have been possible without the guidance, support and opportunities provided by many people. I owe a great deal to my primary supervisor, Professor Robyn Alders, who has instilled in me the value of consultative field-based research. I continue to be inspired by Robyn’s commitment to tackling the issues which matter to smallholder farmers in resource-poor settings, and working towards sustainable outcomes. My co-supervisor Professor Ian Darnton-Hill’s generosity in sharing his experience in international public health nutrition research and policy has been much appreciated, as has his diplomacy and eye for detail. Time spent with my social anthropologist advisor, Dr Brigitte Bagnol, in our study sites and in discussions, has been both enjoyable and invaluable in developing my skills and appreciation of qualitative and cross- cultural research. I have also benefited greatly from the support and endless patience of my statistics advisor, Associate Professor Peter Thomson, in helping me to navigate rich and complex datasets to reach valid conclusions. I am very grateful to our project coordinator in Tanzania, Wende Maulaga (“Mama Wende”), whose compassion, commitment and ability to bring people together has made this work the success it has been. Thank you to all my Tanzanian colleagues, especially Elpidius Rukambile, Msafiri Kalloka, Geofrey Kiswaga, Deorinidei Mng’ong’o and Sospeter Mwingira. This research has been facilitated by strong partnerships at the Tanzania Veterinary Laboratory Agency, Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre and Sokoine University of Agriculture, and the continuing support of the Government of Tanzania. The key role of community leaders, local enumerators and chicken vaccinators in implementing this project cannot be overstated. Thanks especially to our “Community Assistants”: Robert Delisa, Theresia Mathias, Jeni Zacharia, Simon Beatus, Johnson Mkuyu, Rosemary Ackley, Esther Kapande, Moses Joseph, Selafina Maloda, Amos Maloda, Angelina Masiaga, Laurent Charles, Suzana Joseph, Happiness Cassian, Marino Alphonce, Agnes Joseph, Mandela Gabriel, Modesta Martin and Yohana Joseph. iii Thank you to the broader Nkuku4U team at he University of Sydney (Professor Robyn McConchie, Professor Mu Li, Professor Judy Simpson,t Dr Siobhan Mor and Dr Floris van Ogtrop), with whom I have greatly enjoyed working and who have contributed to my early experiences of interdisciplinary research. Funding for this project has been provided by the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR). Opportunities afforded to me through both ACIAR and The Crawford Fund have helped me to build networks within the international agricultural research community. Financial support through he University of Sydney’s Postgraduate Research Support Scheme has also facilitated tmy participation in three international conferences during my candidature. It is hard to imagine the last three-and-a-half years without my friend and ally Johanna Wong. Our chats, discussions and debriefs (from our respective field sites, loitering by the office photocopier, and over dinner) have made the transition to this new subject area and the highs and lows of PhD student life a far greater experience. Thanks also to Dr Darryl Stellmach for the pep-talks, Friday writing sessions, and for broadening the diversity of our female-veterinarian- dominated research group. Thanks to my family and friends, for their love and belief in the many moments of self-doubt. And finally, thank you to the women and children of Sanza and Majiri Wards in Tanzania. iv Table of contents Statement of originality ......................................................................................................................................................... i Abstract ......................................................................................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgements ............................................................................................................................................................... iii Author contributions to published papers ................................................................................................................. x Authorship attribution statement ................................................................................................................................ xii Additional publications and presentations ............................................................................................................ xiii Abbreviations and acronyms ........................................................................................................................................ xvii Glossary ...................................................................................................................................................................................... xx List of tables ....................................................................................................................................................................... xxviii List of figures ........................................................................................................................................................................ xxx References .......................................................................................................................................................................... xxxiv Chapter 1.

Gores , Osmund M. Kapinga ABSTRACT This paper focused on the examination of the evolution of the Sukuma marriage conduct in the traditional setting and the influence which the Roman Catholic Church exerted on the Sukuma traditional marriage practices. The different forms and procedures of traditional marriages practiced among the Sukuma before the introduction of Christianity in the nineteenth century are explored. Several studies had been conducted on how traditional marriage institutions among the Sukuma were sustained despite the penetration of Christianity. Others investigated on how Christianity of different denominations in general affected the Sukuma marriage practices. This study, therefore, focused on how the Roman Catholic Church influenced the Sukuma traditional marriage. Despite its strong roots in Magu district none of the studies investigated its influence on traditional marriage institutions. A historical research methodology was employed in which different historical sources both primary and secondary were visited. Secondary sources were collected through a review of documents from libraries and different resource centers. The bulky primary information was accessed from archival sources. The existing oral histories kept by local Sukuma historians were accessed by visiting their custodians. The data generated revealed that the coming of Roman Catholic Church and the subsequent introduction of Christianity among the Sukuma introduced Christian marriage which threatened the existence of Sukuma traditional marriages.

For about 70% of beekeepers interviewed, income from Introduction selling bee products subsidised household economies by at least 30%. Beekeeping in Tanzania plays a major role in socio-economic development. It is an important source of income especially for Honey production communities living close to forests and woodlands (BID Journal 89, The major areas of honey production in Tanzania are Dodoma, Iringa, 2008). In Tanzania current honey and beeswax production stand at 3.5% of Singida and Tabora Regions (NWRC, 2007). Manyoni District has a high estimated potential figures (Mwakatobe & Mlingwa, 2005). This low beekeeping production potential (Table 2), as it was reported by Village production indicates an opportunity to increase beekeeping activities to Beekeeping Development Groups that income accrued per individual raise income and reduce poverty. Despite its significance, there is little beekeeper increased from an average US$150 (€112) in June 2000, to empirical evidence of the value of traditional beekeeping for income US$691 (€516) in June 2003.

  • Nation Building and Public Goods in Kenya Versus Tanzania
    TRIBE OR NATION? Nation Building and Public Goods in Kenya versus Tanzania By EDWARD MIGUEL* I. INTRODUCTION HE design of public policies that promote interethnic cooperation Tremains poorly understood nearly twenty years after the appear- ance of Horowitz's seminal work.1 Recent research suggests that ethni- cally diverse societies are prone to corruption, political instability, poor institutional performance, and slow economic growth and that in the United States higher levels of diversity are related to lower provision of local public goods across municipalities. Addressing ethnic divisions is likely to be particularly important for Africa, the most ethnically di- verse and poorest continent. This article examines how central government nation-building poli- cies affect interethnic cooperation, by comparing the relationship be- tween local ethnic diversity and public goods across two nearby rural districts, one in western Kenya and one in western Tanzania, using colonial-era national boundary placement as a "natural experiment." Despite their largely shared geography, history, and colonial institu- tional legacy, governments in Kenya and Tanzania have followed radi- cally different ethnic policies along a range of dimensions—most notably in national language policy, the educational curriculum, and local institutional reform—with Tanzania consistently pursuing the more serious nation-building policies during the postcolonial period. The empirical evidence in this article suggests that the Tanzanian nation-building approach has allowed

  • Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania
    Development Economics Research Group Working Paper Series 04-2020 Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania Gustav Agneman Paolo Falco Exaud Joel Onesmo Selejio October 2020 ISSN 2597-1018 Does Scarcity Reduce Cooperation? Experimental Evidence from Rural Tanzania∗ Gustav Agneman1, Paolo Falco1, Exaud Joel2, and Onesmo Selejio2 1Department of Economics, University of Copenhagen 2Department of Economics, University of Dar Es Salaam October 21, 2020 Abstract Cooperation is essential to reap efficiency gains from specialization, not least in poor com- munities where economic transactions often are informal. Yet, cooperation might be more difficult to sustain under scarcity, since defecting from a cooperative equilibrium can yield safe, short-run benefits. In this study, we investigate how scarcity affects cooperation by leveraging exogenous variation in economic conditions induced by the Msimu harvest in ru- ral Tanzania. We document significant changes in food consumption between the pre- and post-harvest period, and show that lean season scarcity reduces socially efficient but per- sonally risky investments in a framed Investment Game. This can contribute to what is commonly referred to as a behavioral poverty trap. Keywords: scarcity, cooperation, field experiment JEL Codes: C71, C93, D91 ∗This study was made possible by financial support from the Danish Embassy in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), as part of the GDRP Phase II Project. We are grateful to the team of research assistants from the Singida region for their excellent work. We are also thankful to the Development Economics Research Group at the University of Copenhagen for their invaluable support, and to the TRIBE group at the University of Copenhagen for great feedback.

  • The Classification of the Bantu Languages of Tanzania
    i lIMFORIVIATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document h^i(^|eeh used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the qriginal submitted. ■ The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. I.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Mining Page(s)". IfJt was'possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are^spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you'complete continuity. 2. When an.image.on the film is obliterated with li large round black mark, it . is an if}dication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during, exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing' or chart, etc., was part of the material being V- photographed the photographer ' followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to .continue photoing fronTleft to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued, again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until . complete. " - 4. The majority of usefs indicate that the textual content is, of greatest value, ■however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from .'"photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • The Collapse of a Pastoral Economy
    his research unravels the economic collapse of the Datoga pastoralists of central and 15 Göttingen Series in Tnorthern Tanzania from the 1830s to the beginning of the 21st century. The research builds Social and Cultural Anthropology from the broader literature on continental African pastoralism during the past two centuries. Overall, the literature suggests that African pastoralism is collapsing due to changing political and environmental factors. My dissertation aims to provide a case study adding to the general Samwel Shanga Mhajida trends of African pastoralism, while emphasizing the topic of competition as not only physical, but as something that is ethnically negotiated through historical and collective memories. There are two main questions that have guided this project: 1) How is ethnic space defined by The Collapse of a Pastoral Economy the Datoga and their neighbours across different historical times? And 2) what are the origins of the conflicts and violence and how have they been narrated by the state throughout history? The Datoga of Central and Northern Tanzania Examining archival sources and oral interviews it is clear that the Datoga have struggled from the 1830s to the 2000s through a competitive history of claims on territory against other neighbouring communities. The competitive encounters began with the Maasai entering the Serengeti in the 19th century, and intensified with the introduction of colonialism in Mbulu and Singida in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The fight for control of land and resources resulted in violent clashes with other groups. Often the Datoga were painted as murderers and impediments to development. Policies like the amalgamation measures of the British colonial administration in Mbulu or Ujamaa in post-colonial Tanzania aimed at confronting the “Datoga problem,” but were inadequate in neither addressing the Datoga issues of identity, nor providing a solution to their quest for land ownership and control.
