Ingvar Andersson ;- Carolyn Hannan—Andersson I CE~ifl~Rfl ~Tei (C7~ ~1i1 -~ June ~984 Institute of Resource Assessment University of Oar es Salaam Box 35097 Oar es Salaam Tanzania ABSTRACT The water supply/sanitation/health situation in 3 villages in Singida Region was the focus of this study. The objective was to investigate general conditions and to identify the explicit needs of the communities. Relevant socio-economic data on production, livestock, ecological system, etc, is presented, as well as a historical overview of the developments in the water supply sector. Water-use patterns and standards of health, hygiene and sanitation were investigated in 75 households. An attempt was made to evaluate improvements to the water supply in two of the villages, i.e. the functioning of the supplies, the extent of utilization and the impact, e.g. on water use patterns, work burdens and general welfare and health. The effectiveness of the strategy for improving water supplies using shallow wellls with handpumps is assessed. The aspects of density and location of supply are stressed as crucial for the achievement of impact. An alternative strategy is suggested — the improvement of all traditional sources both for domestic and non-domestic uses (livestock and small vegetable gardens).

  • Female Genital Cutting 13

    Female Genital Cutting 13

    FEMALE GENITAL CUTTING 13 Female genital cutting (FGC), also known as female circumcision or female genital mutilation (FGM) in Tanzania, is a common practice in many societies in the northern half of sub-Saharan Africa. Nearly universal in a few countries, it is practiced by various groups in at least 25 African countries, in Yemen, and in immigrant African populations in Europe and North America (Yoder et al., 2004). In a few societies, the procedure is routinely carried out when a girl is a few weeks or a few months old (e.g., Eritrea, Yemen), while in most others, it occurs later in childhood or adolescence. In the case of the latter, FGC is typically part of a ritual initiation into womanhood that includes a period of seclusion and education about the rights and duties of a wife. The Tanzanian Special Provision Act, a 1998 amendment to the penal code, specifically prohibits FGC. However, while the practice has been outlawed, it is still occurring in many areas. FGC is considered compulsory in some communities whereas in other communities, women may have options about being cut. The 2004-05 TDHS collected data on the practice of female circumcision from women age 15-49. The 1996 TDHS also collected data on female circumcision from women in the same age group. The 2003-04 Tanzania HIV/AIDS Indicator Survey (TACAIDS, NBS, and ORC Macro, 2005) included only one question on circumcision for male and female respondents: whether the respondent was circumcised. In this chapter, topics discussed include knowledge, prevalence, and type; age at circumcision; person who performed the circumcision; and attitudes towards the practice.

    Photo © Mitchell Maher/International Food Policy Research Institute APRA brochure: Tanzania The Agricultural Policy Research in Africa (APRA) programme is a five-year research consortium that is working to identify the most effective pathways to agricultural commercialisation that empower women, reduce rural poverty, and improve food and nutrition security in sub-Saharan Africa. What is agricultural commercialisation? APRA’s goals We define commercialisation as a process occurring when farmers • Generate high-quality evidence increasingly engage with the on pathways to agricultural market, either to procure inputs commercialisation in Africa. and resources (such as fertiliser, • Undertake policy research on seeds, hired labour, formal credit, agricultural commercialisation to rented land), or to process and sell fill key evidence gaps and define their produce. Commercialisation policy options. may occur through either external • Ensure the sharing and uptake investment or market specialisation of research by a diverse range of and farm consolidation, or a stakeholders. combination of the two. • Strengthen the capacity of the research team, and associated Commercialisation is successful partner institutions, to deliver if more people are ‘stepping up’, high-quality research and advice. ‘stepping out’ and ‘stepping in’, and fewer people are ‘hanging in’ or ‘dropping out’ of productive agriculture. What will APRA do? APRA researchers are examining how African farmers engage with four different types of commercial agriculture (estate/plantation, medium-scale commercial agriculture, contract farming, smallholder commercialisation) and the effects this has on the livelihoods of rural people, particularly women and young people. The aim is to help inform future policy and investment decisions to promote more inclusive forms of agricultural commercialisation in sub-Saharan Africa.

For the current policy on development co-operation, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are the guiding principle. These include the target to halve, by 2015, the proportion of people in 1990 without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. The purpose of support to water supply and sanitary facilities goes beyond sustainable access: it is intended to reduce the burden of water collection (typically a task of women and girls); improve health; raise school enrolment and attendance; improve livelihoods and ultimately reduce poverty. The Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) of the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs has initiated a series of impact evaluations of Netherlands-supported water supply and sanitation programmes. There is consensus worldwide on the impacts of programmes for water supply and sanitary facilities; conventional evaluation studies do not, however, normally quantify these. In the impact studies, a combination of quantitative statistical and qualitative methods and techniques are used. With the series of impact studies IOB wishes to explore how the magnitude of the effects of these programmes can be measured.
