Solving A Hidden Hunger Crisis in Tanzania

The Hunger Season
In the villages of rural Tanzania, it’s not uncommon for mothers to wait weeks or even months to name their newborns. Too often their infants won’t survive long enough to need one.

Dr. Borda, a native of Malta whose white hair and fluent Swahili underscores her thirty years of experience living in Tanzania, says some mothers here simply nickname their newborns “buyoya,” a Kiha word meaning “breath.” It’s a poetic reminder of how dangerous life for children can be in low-income countries like this one, where infant mortality rates are five times higher than in the United States due to widespread poverty, inadequate health care and chronic malnutrition. For mothers, the risk of dying during childbirth in Tanzania is twenty times higher than in the U.S.

One key reason is a lack of access to food. The East African nation is one of the least developed and food-deficient on the planet. According to the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), more than 40 percent of Tanzania’s population live in regions where food shortages are common, often as a result of irregular rainfall, degraded soil and inadequate farming equipment that yields meager harvests. This is especially problematic in rural areas, where 80 percent of the population relies on rain-fed, subsistence agriculture.
 
I like scientific studies, sio kupayuka ovyo ovyo; these reports helps governments to plan and solve the problem na inapaswa iwekwe peupe raiya wote wajue hali kamili ya nchi. Haimanishi mtu binafsi akiwa sawa ni kila mtu yuko sawa. Tz media must wake up!
Watanzania wana changamoto.

Survey finds most Tanzanians go hungry, despite government denials​
Kizito Makoye

DAR ES SALAAM, March 7 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Most Tanzanians have experienced hunger in the past three months, with food shortages most severe in drought-hit rural areas, a countrywide survey found, despite government denials of a food crisis.

The survey by Tanzanian think tank Twaweza found that 78 percent of people had suffered food shortages in the past three months. In rural areas the figure rose to 84 percent compared to 64 percent in cities.

The findings came despite repeated government denials that the East African country was suffering food shortages. President John Magufuli has accused opposition politicians of fomenting a “fake” hunger crisis.

The Twaweza survey said in a country where 80 percent of the population rely on subsistence farming, some families have begun skipping meals.

In February, 65 percent of respondents had worried about their families not having enough to eat in the previous seven days, compared to 45 percent last September.

The research, part of polling platform Sauti za Wananchi—Africa’s first national survey of its kind, shows a sharp decline in food availability among families in the past three months.

“The current shortages and ongoing food insecurity underline the context of general vulnerability and income poverty,” researchers said.

Drought in East Africa has sent prices of staples such as maize and sorghum soaring, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) said last month.

According to Bank of Tanzania data, the wholesale price of maize, a staple crop has doubled in the past 2 years from 400 Tanzanian shillings in 2015 to 1,253 ($0.60) per kilo in 2017/18

Michael Dunford, head of the World Food Programme (WFP) in Tanzania said the U.N. agency is concerned about food insecurity in Tanzania and is monitoring the situation.

“There are pockets of food insecurity in the country. More information will be apparent in the next season,” Dunford said.

He said a recent government assessment identified more than a million people in 55 districts facing acute food insecurity between now and before the next harvest in May.

Those in need of urgent food assistance are estimated at over 118,000. However, Tanzania’s agriculture minister for Charles Tizeba said the situation is manageable.

“We are generally satisfied by various efforts taken to bring this situation under control,” he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

Naona unajitaidi kutapatapa, umesahau kua kuna mamilioni ya wakenya wanashinda na njaa daily.
Millions of Kenyans go hungry every day. Why, and what can be done
 
Mbona mlikua mnapinga Tz hakuna njaa?[emoji23], the thread is to show why Tz has multidimensional poverty, an all round poverty, in different aspects of life., ndio maana mko ovyo ukanda huu wote wa EAC na SADC., yaani umasikini wenyu umesambaa nchi yote, not pocket cases kama Kenya. Yenu ni kama bahari la umasikini., haswa mashinani, na Dar!balaa duh!!

A sprawling low life!
 

Rejea katika "source" ya taarifa yako ambayo ni ya miaka 5 iliyopita. Na hii hapa utasemaje?
 
😂😂 matajiri wa East Africa Kenya katika ubora wao👇

 
Patronizing Kenya won't change the reality that is Tanzania; a multidimensional poverty stricken nation. Kila nchi ibebe mzigo wake kikamilifu, East Africa tusiwe na aibu kila mwaka.
Have a good night.

Dah mbona waswahili hawaombei magonjwa yote kama malaria na ukimwi yaisheeee kama ze korona!😂
 
Nyumba za nyasi na udongo sio ishara ya umasikini bali ni culture heritage, au haujawahi kuona Bar kubwa zimejengwa na kuezekwa kwa miti na nyasi?!

But kuna hoja za msingi umeongea na its true kuna hali ya umasikini ambao ukitrace historically unaelements kubwa sana za sheria na kanuni alizoacha mkoloni plus mifumo ya kiuchumi ya ujamaa.

Ujamaa huwa unakuwa na faida endapo watu ni wachache na resources zilizopo zina attend uhitaji wao kwa asilimia 500% but kama idadi ya watu ikawa kubwa na resources hazitoshi ujamaa huwa unakuwa ni gunia la kuni kwa wale wachache wenye bidii maana hurudishwa nyuma na wengi ambao wamekubali kufeli na kuishi kawaida.
 
Umasikini Tanzania upo (hasa vijijini) lakini si kwa kiwango hicho.

Miradi mikubwa ya maji na umeme itaenda kuondosho umasikini kwa kiasi kikubwa!

Tatizo kubwa ni la makazi duni vijijini. Lakini watu siku hizi wanachakarika kujenga nyumba bora.

Maeneo yaliyokuwa mabaya zaidi kama singida na dodoma, siku hizi yanajengwa haswa na miji inapangika kweli kweli.

Ninachotaka kusema hapa ni kwamba umasikini sio sifa. Watu waendelee kupambana kuondoa umasikini bila kuchoka.

Nyie wazungu wa Kibera endeleeni kuongea kizungu uchwara hapo wakati hata chakula tu tabu.

Mijitu ya turkana imekondeana kwa unyafuzi.... tia maji tia maji.

Kenya ni masikini mno tena sana. Msidanganywe na hizo takwimu za Kenyata.
 
Uliona wapi Bar kubwa imejengwa kwa tope? Hizo Bar kubwa zilizoezekwa miti na nyasi, jaribu kuchunguza interior design iliomo ndani aisee, ni tofauti kabisa ya kinachoongelewa kwenye uzi huu.

Ninyi ni mafukara hoHe hAhe!!! kutoka juu mpaka chini, kushoto kulia, ndani nje yaani mumefulia balaa!
Ni aibu jamani, jikakamueni muondoe aibu. Nchi tajiri ila wananchi wake wanaskitisha.
 
Umaskini Tanzania unatia huruma sana.
 
In Tanzania Dar below , this area is classified as a normal residential settlement,
In Kenya, this would be considered a slum.

 
Kwa Tz unaweza kuwa middle income earner ila huduma muhimu zikawa shida kupata. Accessibility ya service bado iko chini sana. Ila kwa Kenya ukiwa na pesa uta enjoy life sana.
 
Na hao wahindi n tz....nashukuru tz tunapoverty ambayo hata maskini anamiliki ardhi cyo ninyi over 70% no land and poor too...so sad mnakua kama mpo kwene apartheid policy....mnaishi nchi kama cyo kwenu wote mmepanga.......


Alafu unakurupuka kuja kubwabwaja hapa ....idiots ....
 
Tanzania, mido income eti!
