An Empirical Exploration of the Central Human Functional Capabilities of People Living in Informal Settlements in the Context of Poverty Eradication
While many researchers and policymakers use the capability approach to evaluate well-being, its application in the context of informal settlements remains limited. This study thus seeks to examine how people in informal settlements value central human functional capabilities, with a focus on poverty reduction. A critical realist paradigm and a multi-case study design were adopted to explore four informal settlements in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Data we…
Climate-Change Resilience and Women’s Participation in Food-Security Initiatives. A Review of Amalima-Loko Programmes in Nkayi, Zimbabwe
Climate change poses significant threats to food security, particularly in rural Zimbabwe. Food security is of paramount concern in Zimbabwe, particularly among smallholder farmers and vulnerable populations such as female-headed households. Women play a crucial role in enhancing food security, yet their participation in food-security programmes is often limited due to gender inequality, inequity and other discriminatory norms, a practice that is…

Climate-Induced Displacement and Migration - Implications on Poverty and Household Food Security in Southern Africa
Climate-induced extreme weather events such as droughts and floods have been documented as major drivers of massive displacement and migration of people globally and in Southern Africa, in particular. To this end, floods and recurrent drought conditions in most countries in southern Africa (e.g. Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Eswatini) continue to induce rural-urban migration as people flee vulnerable areas (flood- & drought-prone areas) …
Examining the Nexus Between Migration and Family Planning Access
Migration plays a significant role in shaping demographic patterns and access to healthcare services, including family planning. This study investigates the complex relationship and interconnection between migration and family planning access among Zimbabwean emigrants residing in South Africa. Despite the geographical separation from their country of origin, Zimbabwean emigrants have been observed to access family planning pills from back home. …
Contextualizing the seasonal livelihoods programming tool in drought resilience planning settings
Indigenous knowledge systems and drought preparedness in rural Umzingwane in Zimbabwe
Drought risk-reduction and gender dynamics in communal cattle farming in southern Zimbabwe
The severity and frequency of climate change-induced weather events pose a serious threat to livelihoods in rural Africa where crop production and animal husbandry are pivotal for survival. Discussions to manage the adverse impacts of such events, droughts in particular revolve around the co-employment of a mix of modern ‘scientific’ approaches on one hand, the use of indigenous knowledge systems on the other hand with calls to exploit the merits…
