Box 2100 1211 Geneva 2, Switzerland Tel: 41 22 791 6033 Fax: 41 22 791 6506 Appeal e-mail: [email protected] Coordinating Office Tanzania Food Relief Assistance – AFTZ61 Appeal Target: US$ 741,141 Geneva, 21 March 2006 Dear Colleagues, The latest Tanzanian government report on the food situation shows that from February to April, 3.76 million people - more than 10 percent of the country's population- will need 99,676 tonnes of maize food aid. According to the country's Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security the food deficit in Tanzania is linked to the failure of short rains between August and November 2005 which account for 30% of annual harvests in the country. A Rapid Vulnerability Assessment carried out by the government, WFP, and NGOs in early February identified 564,000 of the total impacted population as being destitute and in need of free food distribution. To date, the government of Tanzania has not declared a national emergency but WFP and NGOs are concerned that government resources are insufficient to meet the urgent needs of this vulnerable population. The long rainy season is now expected between March and May, but if it fails or comes too late, the number of people needing food relief could go up. ACT member the Christian Council of Tanzania (CCT) is appealing for assistance to provide food relief to approximately 80,500 of the most destitute people in seven regions in rural Tanzania, to be distributed through its member churches the Anglican Church of Tanzania (ACT), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania (ELCT), the African Inland Church of Tanzania (AIC) and the Mennonite Church of Tanzania (MEN) stationed across the country.

  • Project/Programme Proposal to the Adaptation Fund
    PROJECT/PROGRAMME PROPOSAL TO THE ADAPTATION FUND PART I: PROJECT/PROGRAMME INFORMATION Project/Programme Category: Regular Project Country/ies: United Republic of Tanzania Title of Project/Programme: Strategic Water Harvesting Technologies for Enhancing Resilience to Climate Change in Rural Communities in Semi-Arid Areas of Tanzania (SWAHAT) Type of Implementing Entity: National Implementing Entity (NIE) Implementing Entity: National Environment Management Council (NEMC) Executing Entity/: Sokoine University of Agriculture Amount of Financing Requested 1,280,000 (in U.S Dollars Equivalent) Project Summary The objective of proposed SWAHAT project is enhancing resilience and adaptation of semi arid rural communities to climate change-induced impacts of drought, floods and water scarcity. This will be achieved through strategic water harvesting technologies that will contribute to improved crops, aquaculture and livestock productivity, reforestation as well as combating emerging crops and livestock pests and diseases. The conceptual design of the water harvesting dam has been designed to ensure afforestation of the catchment before the dam thus prevention excessive siltation. The constructed or rehabilitated dams will supply water for all the proposed resilience and adaptation enhancing integrated innovations to be implemented on the semi-arid landscapes. In addition, synergism between aquaculture and agricultural activities will be done to enhance nutrient recycling and improve resource use efficiency. Nursery for fruits and forest trees as well as vegetable gardens will be established and supply seedlings for afforestation and horticulture. Pastureland and animal husbandry infrastructure will be established downstream of the dam for improved productivity and supply of manure for soil fertility improvement. The afforested landscape will integrate apiary units, provide fuel wood and restore habitats for biodiversity conservation.

  • Assessment of the Effectivenes and Sustainability of Household Food Insecurity Coping Strategies in Chamwino District Dodoma
    ASSESSMENT OF THE EFFECTIVENES AND SUSTAINABILITY OF HOUSEHOLD FOOD INSECURITY COPING STRATEGIES IN CHAMWINO DISTRICT DODOMA REGION BY RUTH MAZENGO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION AND EXTENSION OF SOKOINE UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE. MOROGORO, TANZANIA. 2011 i ABSTRACT Household food security is an important development issue. However, food insecurity still persists in many parts of Tanzania due to a number of factors. When people are faced with food shortage, they develop mechanisms to cope with this problem. These strategies, however, are neither effective nor sustainable. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the effectiveness and sustainability of coping strategies towards food insecurity in Chamwino area in order to suggest possible ways that could be used to increase food production in the area as a way of reducing household food insecurity. Data was collected from 120 respondents by using questionnaires. Researcher’s diary and checklist were used to collect information from key informants. Quantitative data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) computer software and qualitative data were summarized and analyzed manually. Respondents were aware of the food insecurity problem and its causes. They identified some coping strategies which they considered to be effective; these included selling of livestock, selling of labour, utilization of wild foods and a reduction in the number and quantity of meals

  • Site Selection for Africa Rising a Summary of Activities and Outcomes in Ethiopia, Ghana and Tanzania
    SITE SELECTION FOR AFRICA RISING A SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES AND OUTCOMES IN ETHIOPIA, GHANA AND TANZANIA a report prepared for the International Food Policy Research Institute by Christopher Legg January 2013 1) Introduction The selection of “action Sites”, communities where the Africa RISING programme will be implemented, is a critical pre-cursor to the whole programme. Equally, control sites or “counterfactuals” need to be carefully selected to permit statistically valid monitoring and evaluation of the impacts of the project. The selection process took place in a series of stages, starting early in 2012, and was effectively completed by December 2012 in time for implementation of the programme at the start of the main planting season in October 2012 in Tanzania and early 2013 in Ethiopia and Ghana. This report describes the selection criteria and processes in each of the three target countries. Selection of sites in Mali is being reported on separately by another consultant. 2) Principles of Site Selection for Africa RISING 2A. Project Areas The first part of the selection process was the definition of “Mega Sites” or project areas. The definitions were agreed at a series of workshops in late 2011 and early 2012, and disseminated in three concept note. The definitions were a combination of geographic areas (administrative regions or districts, elevation zones) and farming systems, always including a mixture of crops and livestock. Details of the definitions of project areas, based on the concept notes, are given in Appendix 1 to this report. The “mega-sites” were selected so as to be representative of large areas of Sub- Saharan Africa, allowing extrapolation of the positive results of Africa RISING to benefit large rural populations.
