Abstract:

Solenergi är en förnybar energikälla som lämpar sig väl för soliga subsahariska Afrika. Samtidigt är det svårt att leverera solpaneler till de delar av befolkningen som bor på landsbygden på grund av otillräcklig infrastruktur och fluktuerande inkomster bland jordbrukare. I Zambia är solinstrålningen hög men infrastrukturen begränsad och köpkraften låg hos landsbygdsbefolkningen. För att komplettera en utvidgning av det nationella elnätet och andra statliga initiativ har privata aktörer en viktig roll i ökningen av tillgången till el på landsbygden. Fokus för denna studie var att finna en affä

Abstract:

There is growing acknowledgement that forests and forest products are central to rural livelihoods, but their role in lifting households out of poverty remains contentious. This study tested the assertion by proponents of forest based poverty alleviation that changing conditions in the use and management of forests and forest products has created opportunities for poor rural households to lift themselves out of poverty. The study used detailed annual income data from various household sectors in two contrasting sites in Zambia, namely Mufulira and Kabompo districts, analyzing the relative cont

Abstract:

This thesis explores the relationship between social networks and economic life in rural Zambia. The motivation for the study lies in the crucial role played by social context and social networks in exchange behaviour in rural sub-Saharan Africa, and inherent difficulties in formalising market transactions in this context within a standard neoclassical economics framework. The study examines the role of social networks in rural production systems, focusing on crop market participation. It is based on analysis of findings from social network research conducted by the author in three predominant

Abstract:

This study explores how land and natural resources in rural communities are accessed, used, and managed in livelihoods. In particular it examines first, crop field tenure, and livelihoods in natural resources. Second it explores factors that mediate access, use and control of land and natural resources within village communities. Empirical data are explored from two rural village communities of Kamena and St. Joseph located in the Northern and Copperbelt provinces of Zambia respectively. The study argues first that land and natural resource rights underpin land based livelihood activities of r

<p>Adolescents&rsquo<br>sexual activity is associated with maternal and child health problems, and sexually transmitted infections including HIV/AIDS. The aim of this study was to assess the sexual behaviour patterns of adolescent schoolgirls and the level of knowledge they have with regard to the prevention and transmission of HIV infection, as well as to determine which factors are associated with their various sexual behaviour patterns.

Abstract:

The problem discussed in this dissertation is to gather evidence of good practice and derive strategy for the development of ICT access in rural Zambia. Access to ICT services is important, also in rural areas of Africa. The challenges are many. There is a distinct void in tangible descriptions of the realities of ICT Access in rural areas or actionable guidelines for practitioners. This study involves a case study in the rural areas of Zambia. It does so through ethnography involving 10 years of observation of aspects of ICT access in rural Macha, Zambia. In this community, emerging from an a

Abstract:

Skilled attendance at delivery is crucial for decreasing maternal and neonatal mortality. My literature review showed that epidemiological research on factors influencing whether women receive skilled attendance has so far been hampered by a lack of data on health service availability, and is often restricted to investigating household and individual factors. Distance to health services, however, is likely to play an important role. The availability of geographic coordinates in both national household survey, population census and health facility census in Zambia provides the opportunity to co

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 96-105).<br>User fees were introduced in Zambia as an additional source of revenue in response to the economic down-turn that the country experienced in the early 1990s. There is increasing evidence that user fees are a major barrier to accessing health services especially for the poor and in response the Zambian government abolished user fees in all public health facilities in rural based districts in April 2006. The aim of this study is to provide empirical evidence on the immediate impact of the abolition of user fees in the context of the Zambian
