  • Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (Zimvac) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword
    Mashonaland Central Province Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment Report Foreword The Zimbabwe Vulnerability Assessment Committee (ZimVAC) under the coordination of the Food and Nutrition Council, successfully undertook the 2020 Rural Livelihoods Assessment (RLA), the 20th since its inception. ZimVAC is a technical advisory committee comprised of representatives from Government, Development Partners, UN, NGOs, Technical Agencies and the Academia. In its endeavour to ‘promote and ensure adequate food and nutrition security for all people at all times’, the Government of Zimbabwe has continued to exhibit its commitment for reducing food and nutrition insecurity, poverty and improving livelihoods amongst the vulnerable populations in Zimbabwe through operationalization of Commitment 6 of the Food and Nutrition Security Policy (FNSP). As the country is grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, this assessment was undertaken at an opportune time as there was an increasing need to urgently collect up to date food and nutrition security data to effectively support the planning and implementation of actions in a timely and responsive manner. The findings from the RLA will also go a long way in providing local insights into the full impact of the Corona virus on food and nutrition security in this country as the spread of the virus continues to evolve differently by continent and by country. In addition, the data will be of great use to Government, development partners, programme planners and communities in the recovery from the pandemic, providing timely information and helping monitor, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and any similar future pandemics. Thematic areas covered in this report include the following: education, food and income sources, income levels, expenditure patterns and food security, COVID-19 and gender based violence, among other issues.

  • Food Security in Zimbabwe: Demand for African Indigenous Vegetables
    Paper submitted to the 5th AAAE Conference in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia “Transforming smallholder agriculture in Africa: The role of policy and governance” Food security in Zimbabwe: Demand for African indigenous vegetables Praxedis Dube Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, The Netherlands [email protected] Rico Ihle Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, The Netherlands Member of CRCPEG, Georg August-Universität Göttingen, Germany [email protected] Wim Heijman Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, The Netherlands [email protected] Food Security in Zimbabwe: Demand for African Indigenous Vegetables Abstract African Indigenous Vegetables (AIVs) are mostly leafy vegetables traditionally grown throughout Africa. Since they are domesticized versions of wild plants growing naturally throughout the continent, they are excellently adapted to the climate of the region they are growing in. Furthermore, they are rich in minerals and micronutrients and have therefore a large potential for alleviating hunger and malnutrition in Africa. Although they have a significant role in the traditional diets of many countries, economic development and change of values challenges the use of these vegetables. Little is known about consumer attitudes towards AIVs. Therefore, we analyse determinants of AIVs demand based on a consumer survey in Zimbabwe. The survey was conducted in four districts of varying prevalence of food insecurity. We analyse the relationship between household income and AIVs consumption. Second, we examine the effects of the geographical location of the household as an indicator of the socio-economic environment it is living it. Third, we explore consumers’ attitudes. Regions of lowest economic development and highest food insecurity show highest levels and variations in AIVs consumption.
