Does participatory research stimulate sustained adoption of energy technologies? Lessons from stove dissemination in Gurué district, rural Mozambique
Research on energy transition to clean cooking suggests that the use of participatory approaches to design and evaluate the project impacts results in sustained adoption, user satisfaction, and continuous knowledge exchange between scientists and local stakeholders. However, the results of participatory approaches are mixed, and studies on long-term effects are rather scarce. This study uses an experimental design to test whether high stakeholder…

Adoption and Impact of Kitchen Garden on Food and Nutritional Security of Farming Households in Tanzania
This article analyzes factors influencing the adoption of kitchen gardens and food and nutrition security implications of kitchen gardens on farming households. For this, the Per Capita Kilocalorie Intake (PKCI) and Food Consumption Score (FCS) were applied as food and nutrition security indicators. This paper is based on cross-sectional data that include a sample of 825 households from two districts in Tanzania. Endogenous Switching Regression i…
High Prevalence of Overweight and Its Association with Mid-Upper Arm Circumference among Female and Male Farmers in Tanzania and Mozambique
The increasing prevalence of overweight/obesity may already have reached the farmers in Tanzania and Mozambique. Here, the measurement of the mid-upper-arm-circumference (MUAC) could become a simple and sensitive tool for early detection of at-risk groups of overweight as well as underweight. Body Mass Index (BMI) and MUAC of female and male farmers ( n = 2106) from different regions of Tanzania and the Zambézia province, Mozambique, were analyze…
Food Insecurity and Malnutrition in Rural Tanzania: Mapping Perceptions for Social Learning
In Tanzania, a high level of hunger persists. Several factors compound a complex scenario of food insecurity. Contextual aspects at the community level can influence the maintenance of the vulnerable local conditions. This article aims to better understand these aspects by investigating community problem perceptions in n = 04 remote rural villages in Tanzania. Furthermore, how to include community perceptions as a pedagogical element of food secu…
Fuelwood scarcity and its adaptation measures: An assessment of coping strategies applied by small-scale farmers in Dodoma region, Tanzania
In Tanzania, the majority of the rural population still relies on fuelwood as their major source of cooking energy. The adaptation measures of small-scale farmers in response to increasing fuelwood scarcity play a key role in altering the course of nutrition insecurity, environmental degradation, and economic instability. This study delivers a classification of coping strategies that does not exist in the literature. Furthermore, it analyses the …
