Abstract:
Village Community Banks (VICOBA) and mobile phones have become assistance to many rural societies in encountering financial problems. However, mobile phone usages to VICOBA are isolated resulting in unsubstantial benefits that do not foster member’s participation. The weak participation of members to Village Community Banks activities has been one of the major impediments to their success despite owning of mobile devices to some members. The paper applies design thinking approach to explore the situation through identifying the deficiency available in mobile devices to VICOBA microcredit programmes in enhancing member’s participation and suggest the effective usage pattern The study captured 7 groups of village community banks at Ndungu village with a total of 70 members whereas 48 female and 22 male participants. The study employed interview, observation and focus group discussion for data collection. Content analysis and coding approaches were used to analyse data and interpreting findings. The findings observed that there is a big potential in mobile phone use to village community banks activities and explicitly linking between design thinking and the qualitative data collection methods in the inception phase of the design process has been perceived to exist

Abstract:
Abstract HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) in Tanzania is a complex problem with many interconnected causes. Some important factors contributing to the selection of drug resistant viruses in people infected with HIV are stigma, poverty, poor health, illiteracy, and insufficient adherence to antiretroviral therapy. Several studies have suggested the implementation of peer support groups as a way to shift the workload associated with adherence support, antiretroviral therapy (ART) distribution, and HIV education away from the doctors to the people living with HIV (PLHIV) themselves. We conducted interviews with local PLHIV to investigate the desirability and feasibility of a peer support group in the Pasada and Kisarawe hospitals in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. A standardized questionnaire was completed by 27 PLHIV in July and August 2017 at the time of a follow-up visit. In this cohort, major causes for missing a dose of ART are lack of support from family and friends and forgetfulness. Reasons for wanting to join <target target-type="page-num" id="p-2"/>a peer support group include psychological support, fighting stigma, and increasing education about their disease. Interestingly, several respondents linked HIV peer support to business support groups such as village community banks (VICOBA). These are informal microfinance groups meant to offer economic stability to individuals. As this link was made by PLHIV themselves, we suggest that it may be worthwhile to explore mixed financial and HIV peer support groups in which HIV education is provided for both HIV positive and negative members. Such groups may reduce the risk of infection and stigma and provide combined psychological, financial, and logistic support to PLHIV.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate how women entrepreneurs in Tanzania assess their accessibility to different external financial sources. The aim is further to discuss financial preferences among this group of entrepreneurs. Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on a unique database consisting of 114 firms, obtained by a questionnaire during 2009-2010. Differences between mean values on perceptions of financial sources were tested via a paired samples t-test. Findings – Overall, the empirical results provide support for the hypothesis that the sampled women entrepreneurs perceive semi-formal capital, such as loans from MFIs, SACCOS, ROSCAS and VICOBA, as the most accessible external capital. Governmental subsidies are ranked second, followed by informal capital, such as loans from family, friends and investors. As expected, loans from formal banks are ranked as the least accessible financing alternative. However, there are strong indications that the entrepreneurs in our study, if given a choice, would prefer external capital from formal sources, rather than semi-formal or informal capital. Practical implications – The authors suggest that the formal banks work to find ways to lower agency costs and thereby work for an inclusion of women entrepreneurs, and for the semi-formal financial actors to improve financial services in ways that better serve the entrepreneurs. Originality/value – The knowledge about attitudes and preferences concerning financial solutions among women entrepreneurs in developing countries is very limited. Results from this study is therefore important, as it adds to previous understanding, especially as this particular group of entrepreneurs have the potential to play an important role in the development of their regions.

Abstract:
Community Health Fund (CHF) was established in 1996 as a District Council based pre-payment health insurance scheme in Tanzania with the aim of improving health of communities working in the informal sectors. However, since its formulation, it has been performing unsatisfactorily, and hence majority of Households (HHs) are not members while other members are withdrawing from the scheme. This necessitated the need for assessing the contribution of CHF on social health security among members. Specifically, this paper examined the challenges faced by households regarding CHF membership and analysed the contributions of CHF on its member. The study area was Kalambo District Council. A cross-sectional research design was used, whereas a simple random sampling technique through lottery method was employed to select the sample size of 354 respondents. Qualitative data were collected using Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs), while quantitative data were collected using a questionnaire. Quantitative data were coded and analysed using IBM-SPSS. Qualitative data were analysed through content analysis. The results show that CHF contributed to social health security among its members in the study area, through provision of health services to its members once they fall sick. On other hand, CHF had few members as only 24.3% of HHs had membership to CHF. One of the barriers for CHF was lack of awareness among communities about the existence of CHF, while other cited lack of money for contributing to CHF. Thus, the study concludes that CHF has not contributed significantly to the health security among targeted members. The study recommends that, CHF officials should widely sensitize communities through seminars and meetings about CHF and its benefits to them. Furthermore, CHF stakeholders should coordinate communities in the area to establish financial institutions such as Village Community Banks (VICOBA) where they can save and borrow money for registration cards.

Abstract:
Giambattista Vico was an eighteenth-century philosopher of history who provided a new and provocative account of the development of human institutions. His influence has been and continues to be significant. Yet, sadly, his work has been largely neglected by legal scholars. This neglect might be explained by the lack in Vico's principal work, Nuova Scienza, of any systematic account of the invention—or discovery—of the idea of justice. Given the scope of Vico's concern with human institutions, this failure is surprising. To be sure there are hints—more than hints—to be found throughout The New Science; nevertheless, his account of this important concept is fragmentary and scattered. This essay intends to demonstrate the value of Vico's work to the study of jurisprudence by tracing the roots and later development of the idea of justice as Vico might have elaborated them. [Bracketed references are to paragraph numbers in T. Bergin and M. Fisch (tr.), The New Science of Giambattista Vico (Cornell Univ. Press, 1968)].

Abstract:
Abstract: Vico's theory of metaphor is best understood as a monster in the tradition of classical rhetorical invention. It is the mutant offspring of metaphor characterized as “necessary” (an “ear” of com, for example) and metaphor characterized in terms of analogy. From the perspective of his method. Vico marries these apparently incompatible forms inherited from Aristotle and thereby identifies a third type of linguistic metaphor. I argue that the metaphor identifies a stipulatory definition taken out of context. In order to situate this claim, I outline Vico's genetic analysis and elaborate in general terms what metaphor and definition share. Most importantly. Vico insists that beings, actions, and events are linguistically identified in some particular diseursive context. Indeed, in many cases that context alone determines whether the expression can be called a definition or a metaphor. Like Cicero's ideal jurist, Vico's hero employs motivated words and realizes possibilities available to common sense. Henee Vico's theory of metaphor is both “constructivist”—language has the power to makes things—and “humartist”—it must do so in a form appropriate to history and culture. Vico's theory is consequently important to us because it challenges the proper/figurative distinction championed in the philosophy of language and adds a pragmatic dimension to contemporary views of metaphor at work in literary theory.

Abstract:
Abstract: Contemporary scholars have focused on two concepts in Vico's tkinking: the imaginative universal and the sensus communis. For Vico these concepts emerge from the human race's first experience of religion. For over a century Vico scholarship has been divided over how to view this experience. This division falls along Aristotelian lines: that is, the primitive religious experience can be seen either as poetic—God and religion are made by the human imagination—or it can be viewed as rhetorical—God and religion are discovered. Vico derives his idea of natural law from the concepts of the imaginative imiversal and the sensus communis, and their relation to religion will affect decisively the status of Vico's theory of natural law. As a matter of fact, Vico's thinking on this issue is better understood, first, within the context of Rudolph Otto's The Idea of the Body, and second, in the context of the Baroque rather than in the context of Aristotelian categories of religion and poetic. Viewed within these contexts, the origin of religion is a theophany that is neither made nor discovered but witnessed, and the development of natural law is an historical process only understood in retrospect. Vico thus differs radically from other Enlightenment thinkers, especially Hume, in his account of primitive religion and provides a basis for natural law that is neither superstitious nor rationalistic, but religious.

Abstract:
- According to Vico metaphor is a fundamental and primary instrument of thought. This concept was further developed by Du Marsais and Rousseau. Particularly important is Vico's concept of poetical logic. Linguistic creativity is the capacity to form new metaphorical associations, to propose new cognitive combinations, and invent new figurations. The species-specific trait of the human being is a modelling device capable of inventing an indeterminate number of worlds. This species-specific human modelling capacity is the lingua mutola, the mute language discussed by Vico: gesture or body language spoken by mankind in its origins. Keywords: Language, Metaphor, Modeling, Poetic Logic, Semiotics, Vico.

Abstract:
Microfinance has spread rapidly since the 1970s and gained a lot of international attention. Advocates mean it is a good way to reduce poverty, but still there is no consensus within the research about the impacts of microfinance and its contribution to poverty reduction.The aim of this study is to assess the members’ perceptions about the impacts of the rural member-based microfinance institutions (MFIs), Savings and Credit Cooperative Societies (SACCOS) and Village Community Bank (VICOBA), on members’ socio-economic situation as well as their perceptions about the contribution to poverty reduction and to identify potential obstacles. The study is mainly based on individual semi-structured interviews with members of SACCOS and VICOBA conducted between February and April 2012 in Babati district Tanzania and earlier research and studies within the area of microfinance and poverty reduction make up the theoretical framework. There is a general agreement among the members interviewed that these MFIs have positive impacts on their socio-economic situation. The results show that it helps to meet consumption needs, pay school fees, run small businesses, increase and diversify the income and the majority also believes that it can be a useful tool for poverty reduction. However, it doesn’t lead to poverty reduction automatically, it depends on how the loans are used and this study identifies several obstacles for SACCOS and VICOBA to be more effective and contribute more to poverty reduction. The main obstacles found are low repayment status, lack of capital and lack of education in both entrepreneurship and how these MFIs operate.

Abstract:
Tanzania has in the recent years kept a steady economic growth and the poverty rate has fallen significantly. At the same time, informal financial services have increased in popularity as a tool for poverty reduction. Previous research claims that gender equality will progress when economic development is taking place. But despite the economic development, the situation for Tanzanian women is still tough and the man is considered to be the head of the household. This paper aims to show why Tanzania is a deviant case regarding economic development and gender equality, and investigate how informal financial services impact women empowerment, by looking at membership in Village Community Banks. Feminist theories are used to explain why economic development and gender equality does not always have a linear relationship. It is concluded that membership in Village Community Banks have impacted the women on a personal level, enhancing self-confidence and belief. However, the gender equality within the household is not progressing due to a patriarchal social ordering, where the male is superior and the female inferior. It is not enough to focus on financial services, such as access to savings and credit, for a woman to be empowered enough to become equal to her husband.

El objetivo de este trabajo fue caracterizar la gestación en la vicuña (Vicugna vicugna) mantenida bajo condiciones de manejo en semicautiverio, mediante la determinación de la fertilidad y la definición de la curva de crecimiento embrio-fetal, por medio de la ecografía transrectal y la medición de las concentraciones plasmáticas de progesterona materna. El estudio se realizó en el predio Ancara, ubicado en la localidad de Chislluma, comuna de General Lagos, I Región de Tarapacá. El rebaño en estudio estuvo constituido por 45 vicuñas adultas. Luego del diagnóstico de gestación, se seleccionaron 12 hembras en las que se realizaron exámenes ecográficos donde se midió el diámetro biparietal (DBP), altura de tórax (AT) y diámetro abdominal (DA) fetales y se tomaron muestras de sangre materna para la medición de concentración plasmática de progesterona. Estos procedimientos se realizaron cada 2 meses, hasta el parto. La medición de la concentración plasmática de progesterona se llevó a cabo mediante radioinmunoanálisis. La fertilidad del rebaño fue de 62%. La concentración plasmática de progesterona fue ≥ 5 nmol/L en hembras preñadas y ≤ 2 nmol/L en hembras secas. El crecimiento de las variables morfométricas fetales se representan mediante las siguientes ecuaciones: EG = 0,2333 + (47,09 * DBP) r² = 0,96 EG = -0,1048 + (50,17 * AT) r² = 0,93 EG = 0,05122 + (36,22 * DA) r² = 0,90 Donde EG es la edad gestacional y se mide en días y DBP, AT y DA en cm. El alto coeficiente de determinación de las características morfométricas fetales permitirán evaluar el crecimiento intrauterino o estimar la fecha probable de parto, cuando no se conoce la fecha de encaste

Abstract:
La vicuña (Vicugna vicugna) es una especie silvestre de Camélido Sudamericano (CSA). Está clasificada en Bajo Riesgo según la IUCN, no obstante, como continúa estando amenazada, se requiere estudios enfocados en su conservación. Una herramienta de conservación es la reproducción asistida, sin embargo, para hacer uso de ella, primero se requiere conocer la fisiología básica de la especie. En ese sentido, el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo desarrollar un protocolo de contención química y colección de semen en vicuñas mediante la técnica de electroeyaculación, así como caracterizar el eyaculado obtenido. Fueron utilizados 9 individuos machos adultos de V. vicugna, clínicamente sanos, pertenecientes al Parque Zoológico Huachipa (n igual 3), Lima; CIP Quimsachata-INIEA (n igual 4), Puno; y Zoológico Municipal Cerrito de La Libertad (n igual 2), Huancayo. La electroeyaculación se realizó bajo anestesia general, utilizando la combinación de ketamina (7,83 mg Kg-1), xilacina (1,20 mg Kg-1) y atropina (0,07 mg Kg-1) (n igual 19), además de midazolam (0,35 mg Kg-1) (n igual 9). La colección de semen (n igual 16) se llevó a cabo con un electroeyaculador que constaba de un transductor rectal de 2 cm de diámetro y 3 electrodos de cobre espaciados por 0,4 cm. El animal fue colocado en decúbito y se le introdujo el transductor rectal lubricado de 10 a 15 cm dentro del recto. El protocolo de electroeyaculación consistió de estímulos progresivos desde los 2 V hasta los 12 V. Fue colectado eyaculado en 15 de los procedimientos. Los valores seminales encontrados son los siguientes (x ± EE): volumen 0,85 ± 0,12 ml; pH 7,09 ± 0,16; motilidad espermática no progresiva 28,08 ± 3,56 %; concentración 166,29 ± 60,92 x 104 espermatozoides/ml y espermatozoides normales 62,77 ± 1,96 %. En cuanto al volumen testicular, el valor total encontrado fue de 22,95 ± 2,28 cm3, el cual no tiene correlación con el volumen seminal y la concentración espermática (r igual 0,06 y r igual 0,16; P menor 0,05). Se concluye que la colección de semen por electroeyaculación en vicuñas es factible, asimismo las características seminales observadas son similares a las otras especies de CSA.
The vicuna (Vicugna vicugna) is a wild species of South American Camelid (SAC). From the conservation point of view, is classified at Low Risk by the IUCN. However, it is still a threatened species so many studies for their conservation are required. The assisted reproduction is a conservation tool, however it is necessary to know first the basic physiology of the species. In such sense, the aim of this study was to develop a protocol for chemical immobilization and semen collection using the electroejaculation technique, as well as to characterize the ejaculate obtained. Nine adult males of vicuna, clinically healthy, located at the Huachipa Zoological Park, Lima (n same 3), Quimsachata Research Station, Puno (n same 4) and Zoo Cerrito de La Libertad, Huancayo (n same 2) were used. The electroejaculation procedure was carried out under general anesthesia. The combination of ketamine (7,83 mg Kg-1), xilacine (1,20 mg Kg-1) and atropine (0,07 mg Kg-1) (n same 19) were used, besides of midazolam (0,35 mg Kg-1) (n same 9). Semen collection (n same 16) was carried out with an electroejaculator with a 2 cm diameter probe with 3 ventral electrodes spaced about 0,4 cm. With the animal in recumbent position, the lubricated probe was inserted 10 to 15 cm into the rectum. Progressive electrical stimuli from 2 V to 12 V was applied. Fifteen ejaculates were collected. Seminal values of the ejaculates were as follow (x ± SE): volume 0,85 ± 0,12 ml, pH 7,09 ± 0,16, non progressive sperm motility 28,08 ± 3,56 %; sperm concentration 166,29 ± 60,92 x 104 spermartozoa/ml and sperm normal morphology 62,77 ± 1,96 %. In the case of testicular volume, the total value found was 22,95 ± 2,28 cm3, and do not show correlation with seminal volume and sperm concentration (r same 0,06 y r same 0,16; P less 0,05). These results demonstrate that it is possible to collect semen by electroejaculation and the vicuna´s seminal values are similar with the others (SAC).

Este estudio tuvo por finalidad evaluar el efecto de la suplementación alimentaria estratégica, sobre la eficiencia reproductiva, en un grupo de vicuñas mantenidas en semicautiverio, en el altiplano de la I región de Chile. Se utilizaron dos grupos de animales: vicuñas con suplementación alimentaria, suministrada en dos momentos críticos para la gestación y un grupo de vicuñas control, que consumieron sólo el alimento proporcionado por la pradera. La primera suplementación alimentaria, se entregó como “flushing” 15 días antes de comenzar el encaste y durante éste, con el fin de estudiar su efecto sobre la tasa de concepción y sobrevivencia embriofetal. El segundo tratamiento nutricional, se administró en los meses de Septiembre y Octubre, momento en el cual las vicuñas cursan su 6º –7º mes de gestación, con el fin evitar los abortos que se detectan en ese período de la preñez. El suplemento administrado consistió en 1 Kg de heno de alfalfa (producido en Putre) por animal, otorgado en comederos colectivos, durante el período previamente descrito. En ambos casos, la presencia de gestación se evaluó mediante ecografías y mediciones de las concentraciones plasmáticas de progesterona. Adicionalmente, las vicuñas se pesaron al inicio y al final de cada tratamiento nutricional, con el fin de determinar el efecto de ellos sobre el peso corporal. El “flushing” de alimentación no tuvo un efecto significativo sobre la tasa de concepción o menor mortalidad embriofetal. Tampoco se observó un efecto sobre el peso corporal. La suplementación nutricional de gestación no produjo diferencias en el número de abortos entre las vicuñas tratadas y control, pero se observó un incremento en el peso de las vicuñas suplementadas. Adicionalmente, se estableció que existen diferencias entre los pesos que logran las vicuñas al inicio de la gestación y que no pierdan su cría en los meses de baja disponibilidad de forraje. Se concluye, que el tratamiento nutricional otorgado, no es efectivo para mejorar la fertilidad en la vicuña. Sin embargo, el incremento del peso de las vicuñas al inicio de la gestación, podría disminuir el número de vicuñas que abortan en la temporada seca. La suplementación durante la época seca del altiplano, es efectiva para aumentar el peso de los animales, pero el efecto sobre un menor número de abortos fue incipiente

A relação entre desnutrição e desenvolvimento cognitivo tem sido amplamente discutida na literatura. Estudos têm demonstrado que crianças que tenham sofrido de desnutrição apresentam atrasos em testes de Quoeficiente Intelectual (QI), dificuldades em áreas do desempenho acadêmico e alterações no comportamento social e emocional, quando comparadas a seus pares eutróficos sem história de déficits nutricionais. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o desenvolvimento cognitivo de escolares com déficit ponderal ou estatural e compará-los ao de eutróficos do município de Viçosa Minas Gerais. Foram aferidas medidas De peso e altura das crianças e elas foram divididas em três grupos, de acordo com seu estado nutricional: (15) eutrófico, (15) com déficit ponderal e (15) com déficit estatural O desenvolvimento cognitivo foi avaliado por meio da Escala de Inteligência Weschler para Crianças - Terceira Edição (WISC III). Procurou-se também verificar a hipótese de déficit de atenção entre as crianças com déficit de peso e ou altura, utilizando-se o índice fatorial Resistência à distrabilidade do WISC III. Procurou-se também avaliar a influência da escolaridade e inteligência materna. A inteligência das mães foi aferida pelo teste Matrizes Progressivas de Raven Escala Geral. As crianças com déficit de peso tiveram desempenho inferior às crianças eutróficas para todas as medidas de QI total, verbal e de execução. Por outro lado, as crianças com déficit de estatura somente diferiram das eutróficas com relação ao QI de execução. Não foi possível comprovar a hipótese de déficit de atenção. Inteligência e escolaridade maternas tiveram coeficientes de correlação positivos e significantes com o funcionamento cognitivo infantil. Os resultados demonstram que a desnutrição ainda que não grave é capaz de provocar atrasos no desenvolvimento cognitivo. Além disso, a desnutrição aguda, definida pelo déficit ponderal, tem seus efeitos sobre o funcionamento intelectual, mais pronunciados do que a desnutrição crônica, caracterizada pelo déficit estatural, sugerindo a importância de intervenções que atuem, especialmente de forma preventiva, neste tipo de déficit.
The relation between malnutrition and cognitive development has been widely argued in literature. Studies have demonstrated that children who have suffered from malnutrition present delays in tests of Intellectual Coefficient (IQ), difficulties in areas of the academic performance and alterations in the social and emotional behavior, when compared to their eutrophyc pairs without historical malnutrition.The present studies have the goal to evaluate the cognitive development of students with weight and height deficit and compare them to their eutrophycs in the city of Viçosa - Minas Gerais. Height and weight measurements were taken from the students and the students were divided in three groups, according to their nutritional condition: (15) eutrophyc, (15) with weight deficit and (15) with height deficit. The cognitive development was evaluated through the Weschler Intelligence Scale for children - Third Edition (WISC III). We also try to verify the hypothesis of a deficit in the studentºs ability to pay attention caused by a deficit in height or weight.The Raven Progressive Matrices General Scale, measured the motherºs intelligence. The children with deficit on weight had lower IQ, worse verbal skills and worse action skills. On the other hand, the children with height deficit were only different from the eutrophyc when comparing IQ and action skills. We were not able to prove the hypothesis of deficit in attention. The motherºs intelligence and educational level had positive and significant correlation coefficients with the cognitive development of the children. The results show that malnutrition, even when itºs not in big proportions, can cause delays on the cognitive development. In addition, the acute malnutrition, defined by weight deficit, has its effects over the intellectual functioning stronger than the chronic malnutrition, which comes with height deficit, suggesting that interventions are important and need to be made especially to try to prevent other than combat the problem, in this kind of deficit.

Abstract:
Die Philosophie von Giambattista Vico beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema des Ursprungs der Menschheit unter dem Vorzeichen von Bedürfnis und Not auf materieller wie kognitiver und symbolischer Ebene. Dabei nimmt die Not auf symbolischer Ebene, das heißt die Sprachnot, eine besonders zentrale Stelle ein. In Vicos Philosophie überlagern sich, wie im Folgenden gezeigt werden soll, Lebensnot und Sprachnot. Die Ideen von Vico nehmen durch eine intensive Auseinandersetzung mit anderen Philosophen Gestalt an.

Abstract:
In this paper, a mobile robot named VicRoB with 6 degrees of freedom (DOFs) driven by three tracked vehicles is designed and analyzed. The robot employs a 3-PPSR parallel configuration. The scheme of the mechanism and the inverse kinematic solution are given. A path planning method of a single tracked vehicle and a coordinated motion planning of three tracked vehicles are proposed. The mechanical structure and the electrical architecture of VicRoB prototype are illustrated. VicRoB can achieve the point-to-point motion mode and the continuous motion mode with employing the motion planning method. The orientation precision of VicRoB is measured in a series of motion experiments, which verifies the feasibility of the motion planning method. This work provides a kinematic basis for the orientation closed loop control of VicRoB whether it works on flat or rough road.
