  • Zimbabwe Annual Budget Review for 2016 and the 2017 Outlook
    ZIMBABWE ANNUAL BUDGET REVIEW FOR 2016 AND THE 2017 OUTLOOK Presented to the Parliament of Zimbabwe on Thursday, July 20, 2017 by The Hon. P. A. Chinamasa, M.P. Minister of Finance and Economic Development 1 1 2 FOREWORD In presenting the 2017 National Budget on 8 December 2016, I indicated the need to strengthen the outline of the Budget Statement presentation as an instrument of Budget accountability and fiscal transparency, in the process improving policy engagement and accessibility for a wider range of public and targeted audiences. Accordingly, I presented a streamlined Budget Statement, and advised that extensive economic review material, which historically was presented as part of the National Budget Statement, would now be provided through a new publication called the Annual Budget Review. I am, therefore, pleased to unveil and Table the first Annual Budget Review, beginning with Fiscal Year 2016. This reports on revenue and expenditure outturn for the full fiscal year, 2016. Furthermore, the Annual Budget Review also allows opportunity for reporting on other recent macro-economic developments and the outlook for 2017. As I indicated to Parliament in December 2016, the issuance of the Annual Budget Review, therefore, makes the issuance of the Mid-Term Fiscal Policy Review no longer necessary, save for exceptional circumstances requiring Supplementary Budget proposals. 3 Treasury will, however, continue to provide Quarterly Treasury Bulletins, capturing quarterly macro-economic and fiscal developments, in addition to the Consolidated Monthly Financial Statements published monthly in line with the Public Finance Management Act. This should avail the public with necessary information on relevant economic developments, that way enhancing and supporting their decision making processes, activities and engagement with Government on overall economic policy issues.

  • Rise of an Earthkeeping Movement CHAPTER 1
    PART 1 Rise of an earthkeeping movement CHAPTER 1 Waiting for the rain January 1992. Fleeces of white cloud in shimmering pale blue skies - that is all we have. Halfway into the so-called rainy season there is noth­ ing else. Here in Masvingo those white rainless clouds, barren omens of death, shroud from a distance the mud puddle of Lake Kyle, all that remains of the jewel of our province. Have even the symbols switched in the lament of a dying land? Does the whiteness of cloud now evoke thoughts of death, not purity, and the blackness of rain cloud signify life? Or do black and white, the colours of African spirit mediums, still symbolise ancestral protection - a protection apparently lost as grass and leaves shrivel in the heat? For ten years we in Masvingo Province have been waiting for a really good season to break the chronic drought. Hot just scattered showers, as we have had, to fill a few farm dams and nurture only some of the maize crops in outlying districts. Ho! Torrential rains as we have last seen in the mid-seventies; rains that swell the rivers countrywide, fill the lakes, blot out the sun for two weeks on end, until the damp pro­ duces a green sheen on the shoes under your bed. Rains as we saw reg­ ularly as youngsters, when it was impossible to travel the red quagmire of the mountain road leading to Morgenster mission. When, coming from Fort Victoria, we had to walk for miles across the granite rocks of Mount Mugabe - vehicles left far behind at Wayside Farm - to reach home.

  • Understanding Adaptation to Climate Variability in Smallholder Farming Systems in Eastern Zimbabwe: a Sociological Perspective
    Rev Agric Food Environ Stud https://doi.org/10.1007/s41130-018-0074-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Understanding adaptation to climate variability in smallholder farming systems in eastern Zimbabwe: a sociological perspective Sandra Bhatasara1 Received: 16 November 2016 /Accepted: 24 May 2018 # INRA and Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract The literature on climate change in Zimbabwe continues to grow, but literature specifically focusing on how people in rural communities are responding to it is still comparatively limited. Only a few scholars have sought to offer a reasonably detailed account of farmers’ concerns and adaptation from localised, qualitative case studies based on farmers’ narratives. As such, this article is empirically based, using mainly qualitative data from a broader research on understanding climate variability and livelihood adaptation conducted in Mutoko District in rural Zimbabwe. In doing so, the aim is not only to contribute empirical data to existing knowledge but also more importantly to theorise adaptation sociologically. The main argument is that farmers are reflexively engaged in various adaptive strategies predominantly at the household level not only to adapt to increasing climatic variability but also to simultaneously navigate a difficult socio-economic landscape. The adaptive strategies are underpinned by diverse structures, processes and conditions that are enabling and constraining. Hence adapta- tion is unfolding as a complex and reflexive process under specific socio-spatial conditions. Keywords Climatevariability.Farmers.Adaptation.Adaptationprocesses.Reflexivity Introduction A consistent conclusion among climate change scholars in Zimbabwe is that the country is experiencing both climate change and variability. At the same time, there is emerging evidence that local communities are already grappling with the adverse * Sandra Bhatasara [email protected]; [email protected] 1 Sociology Department, University of Zimbabwe, P.O.

  • An Assessment of the Benefits and Costs of Black Granite Quarrying in Mutoko District, Zimbabwe: a Socio-Cultural, Biophysical and Economic Approach
    Journal of Sustainable Development in Africa (Volume 12, No.3, 2010) ISSN: 1520-5509 Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Clarion, Pennsylvania AN ASSESSMENT OF THE BENEFITS AND COSTS OF BLACK GRANITE QUARRYING IN MUTOKO DISTRICT, ZIMBABWE: A SOCIO-CULTURAL, BIOPHYSICAL AND ECONOMIC APPROACH Tanyaradzwa Chigonda ABSTRACT Mining plays an important role in the socio-economic development of many countries worldwide. However, in spite of its remarkable contribution towards development, mining can also result in some adverse impacts, especially when carried out without proper planning. In this study, the economic, socio-cultural, and biophysical benefits and costs of black granite quarrying were investigated. Two questionnaires, one targeting quarry workers and the other targeting villagers around quarry sites, together with personal interviews with key informants, were used as data gathering instruments. Among the benefits realized in the study area due to black granite quarrying include employment creation, infrastructural development, and revenue generation. Black granite quarrying has also brought with it some costs to the study area including, inter alia, the creation of labor bottlenecks for peasant agriculture, encroachment onto limited prime agricultural land, and the lowering of water tables. Quarrying has also induced some school dropouts, while HIV/AIDS prevalence has reportedly increased with the establishment of the quarries. The study recommends that full Environmental Impact Assessments should be carried out immediately in order to fully identify and enhance the benefits of black granite quarrying and reduce the costs. Keywords: black granite quarrying, benefits and costs, sustainable development. INTRODUCTION The history of mining in Zimbabwe dates back to the 15th century when the people practiced traditional small- scale mining mainly for iron and gold.

KITETWA This paper attempts to cover the history of the whole pre- 1800 Duma Confederacy. (1) I say attempts because it is written on the strength of oral traditions collected by the writer in only one d is tric t, B ikita ; (2) yet the Duma are found in several other d is tric ts : Chiredzi, Gutu, Fort Victoria, Zaka formerly Ndanga, and Mr H.E. Sumner includes Chibi as well.(3) Furthermore, there is the great problem of the in a va ila b ility of documentary evidence relevant to the history of the Duma. However, as far as Duma history is concerned, the Bikita d is tric t is the most important for the following reasons: ( 1) this is where the proto - Duma lived and the name Duma came into being; (2) this is where the headquarters of the Duma Confederacy were established on the small Mandara h i ll; and (3) this is where the Big Four Duma chiefs with dynastic titles of Mukanganwi, Mazungunye, Ziki and Mabika were and are s t ill resident. The Duma are a Shona - speaking people who liv e in the V ictoria Province. They are today the ruling aristocracy of the study area(4) except the Rufura vaera - gumbo (totem - leg) and the Mbire vaera -_shoko (monkey) under chiefs Ndanga and Nyakunuhwa respectively in Zaka d is tric t, and the Ndau vaera - moyo (heart) under chief Gudo in Chiredzi district.

AUTOCHTHONS, STRANGERS, MODERNISING EDUCATIONISTS, AND PROGRESSIVE FARMERS: BASOTHO STRUGGLES FOR BELONGING IN ZIMBABWE 1930s-2008 BY JOSEPH MUJERE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD SCHOOL OF HISTORY, CLASSICS AND ARCHAEOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH JULY 2012 ABSTRACT This thesis uses belonging as an analytical tool to analyse the history of the Basotho community in the Dewure Purchase Areas in Zimbabwe. The thesis analyses how Basotho’s migration history and their experiences with colonial displacements shaped and continue to shape their construction of a sense of belonging. It also examines how Basotho’s purchase of farms in the Dewure Purchase Areas in the 1930s and their establishment of a communally owned farm have played a key role in their struggles for belonging. It also explores the centrality of land, graves, funerals, and religion in the belonging matrix.
