Abstract:
El presente artículo emplea el paradigma de dependencia para ilustrar los impactos socioeconómicos del turismo de enclave en países en desarrollo utilizando la ciudad de Livingstone en Zambia (África) como caso de estudio. Utilizando fuentes primarias y secundarias, este estudio revela que los inversionistas extranjeros y los turistas internacionales dominan principalmente la industria del turismo en Livingstone. El dominio del sector por parte de inversionistas extranjeros ha resultado en el desarrollo de un paradigma de dependencia de la actividad turística para contribuir significativamente al desarrollo socioeconómico de la ciudad de Livingstone. A pesar de ser acreditado como un sector importante que contribuye al desarrollo socioeconómico y al alivio de la pobreza, el enfoque del paradigma de dependencia del desarrollo turístico en Livingstone ha conducido a vínculos más débiles con la economía doméstica, lo que ha tenido un impacto mínimo en el crecimiento económico general de la ciudad. Además, el turismo en Livingstone se ha vuelto poco competitivo desde una perspectiva comercial debido al dominio de la propiedad extranjera de las principales empresas turísticas que han creado carteles y oligopolios en el negocio, creando así barreras para que las empresas locales compitan efectivamente. Debido a su naturaleza, el sector turístico en Livingstone no se puede declarar como sostenible. Para abordar los problemas del turismo de enclave y promover un desarrollo turístico más inclusivo y beneficioso en Livingstone y en otros destinos turísticos de países en desarrollo, es necesario adoptar políticas y estrategias que garanticen la plena participación de las comunidades locales y un retorno doméstico de las significativas ganancias del turismo. Las estrategias también deben garantizar que el desarrollo turístico tenga fuertes vínculos con el resto de actividades socioeconómicas locales.

Abstract:
SUMMARYAfrican swine fever (ASF) has been reported in the Eastern Province of Zambia since 1912 and is now considered to be enzootic there. A survey of the distribution of ASF virus in Zambia was carried out by virus isolation from Ornithodoros moubata ticks collected from animal burrows in National Parks and Game Management Areas in northern, eastern, central and southern Zambia. ASF virus was isolated from ticks in all areas examined. The prevalence of infection in O. moubata was between 0·4% in South Luangwa National Park and 5·1% in Livingstone Game Park and mean infectious virus titres ranged from 103–4 HAD50/tick in Kakumbe Game Management Area to 105·9 HAD50/tick in Chunga and Nalusanga Game Management Areas. The prevalence of infection in adult ticks was between 4·7% and 5·3% in all areas examined except Sumbu National Park and Livingstone Game Park, where the prevalence was 15·1% and 13·2% respectively in adult ticks. The ratio of infected females to males for all the infected adult ticks in all areas of Zambia was 3·2:1.

Abstract:
AbstractThis essay illuminates the worldwide transition to free labor from various forms of unfree labor by examining that process in the particular conditions of Southern Africa's encounter with Britain. Dr. David Livingstone's servants—whose descendants in Malawi have been called “Magololo,”1 a term used throughout this essay to distinguish them from the “Kololo” conquerors of Bulozi in contemporary Zambia and parts of Namibia—exemplify this global development. Between 1853 and 1861, over a hundred young Magololo men worked as porters, deckhands, and guides and showed Livingstone the very places in southern Africa whose “discovery” (for Britons) made Livingstone famous. Owing tribute labor to their king, Sekeletu, they initially performed these tasks as subjects. But, after Livingstone's return from England in 1858, they labored for wages; they were among the first groups of Africans in the region to make the emblematic modern move from formally unfree labor to formally free labor. This transition, which would form the core conflict of indirect rule in British Africa, radically altered Livingstone's relationship with his guides: They rebelled against him in 1861. This is one side of the story. The other side follows from the fact that one cannot sensibly speak about workers without the story of their employers. Accordingly, this essay revisits the well-known story of Livingstone's life but offers a different perspective than other biographies. It is the first study to combine the long-familiar documentary evidence with oral sources, for the specific purpose of retelling the Livingstone narrative (in its many renderings) from the viewpoint of his relations with the Magololo workers. In that way, it can shed light on the beginnings of the transition to wage labor in this region.

Abstract:
Zambia recently experienced several environmental threats from climate change such as droughts, temperature rise and occasional flooding and they all affect agricultural sustainability and people wellbeing through negative effects on plants and growing crops. This paper is aimed at showing variations in several climate and environmental parameters in Zambia showing spatial variability and trends in different regions of Zambia's key environmental areas (Zambezi River and tributaries), Livingstone near the Victoria Falls and central region with Muchinga Mountains. A series of 10 maps was plotted using data from TerraClimate dataset: precipitation, soil moisture, Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), downward surface shortwave radiation, vapor pressure deficit and anomalies, potential and actual evapotranspiration and wind speed with relation to the topographic distribution of elevations in Zambia plotted using GEBCO/SRTM data. The data range of the PDSI according to the index values ranged from minimum at -5.7 to the maximum at 16.6 and mean at 7.169, with standard deviation at 4.278. The PDSI is effective in quantifying drought in long-term period. Because PDSI index applies temperature data and water balance model, it indicates the effect of climate warming on drought by correlation with potential evapotranspiration. The maximum values for soil moisture of Zambia show minimum at 1 mm/m, maximum at 413 mm/m, mean at 173 mm/m. This study is technically based on using the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) as cartographic scripting toolset. The paper contributes to the environmental monitoring of Zambia by presenting a series of climate and environmental maps that are beneficial for agricultural mapping of Zambia.

Abstract:
Opening ParagraphIn the colonial period Zambia, then Northern Rhodesia, was a field for brilliant social research. The social scientists who worked at the Rhodes-Livingstone Institute (hereafter abbreviated to RLI) in Lusaka produced studies which can be found in libraries throughout the world. Yet the relevance of this literature for understanding present-day Zambia may not be immediately obvious. Our knowledge of society turns into historical knowledge, especially when great social changes such as decolonization take place. Social scientists inevitably capture one particular historical moment. The work of those connected with the RLI can therefore be treated as part of history; Kuper (1973) has characterised its role in the development of British anthropological thought as a part of the history of ideas, and Brown (1973, 1979) has written evocative accounts of the involvement of its members in the country as an example of the white man's presence in Africa.

Abstract:
Faced with critical shortages of staff, long queues, and stigma at public health facilities in Livingstone, Zambia, persons who suffer from HIV/AIDS-related diseases use medicinal plants to manage skin infections, diarrhoea, sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis, cough, malaria, and oral infections. In all, 94 medicinal plant species were used to manage HIV/AIDS-related diseases. Most remedies are prepared from plants of various families such as Combretaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Fabaceae, and Lamiaceae. More than two-thirds of the plants (mostly leaves and roots) are utilized to treat two or more diseases related to HIV infection. Eighteen plants, namely,Achyranthes asperaL.,Lannea discolor(Sond.)

Schumach.,Ficus sycomorusL.,Ximenia americanaL., andZiziphus mucronataWilld., were used to treat four or more disease conditions. About 31% of the plants in this study were administered as monotherapies. Multiuse medicinal plants may contain broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents. However, since widely used plants easily succumb to the threats of overharvesting, they need special protocols and guidelines for their genetic conservation. There is still need to confirm the antimicrobial efficacies, pharmacological parameters, cytotoxicity, and active chemical ingredients of the discovered plants.

Abstract:
Tourism is a booming industry in Livingstone, Zambia. Over the past decade, an influx of foreign investment has completely transformed the local economy, contributing to a meteoric rise in tourist arrivals, expenditures, and new businesses. This has provided more jobs to the local workforce, created more opportunities for small business, and produced greater government revenues. As a result, the Zambian government has made tourism one of its highest priority development sectors. As large-scale tourism is a recent phenomenon in Livingstone, both the national and local governments have been forced to respond retroactively to the needs and effects of the growing sector. This has led to a policy framework for tourism that is largely uncoordinated and inconsistent, and in some cases outdated. With the approval of Zambia's Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper in 2003, there is now an additional mandate to include the promotion of poverty reduction within government tourism sector activities. The following thesis provides an examination of the tourism economy in Livingstone, Zambia - identifying opportunities for promoting poverty reduction through this growing sector. Using a strategic planning approach adopted by UN-Habitat, this paper identifies and prioritizes objectives and opportunities for pro-poor tourism in Livingstone. This begins with the compilation of tourism and poverty related data outlined in a situation assessment, followed by an analysis of key stakeholders active in the sector. A broad vision is then established and key issues and objectives are identified and streamlined. Using simple decision-analysis tools' to structure and assess alternatives, potential pro-poor tourism opportunities are then assessed in relation to the objectives. The four-highest ranking opportunities were chosen for further analysis. They are listed below according to rank. 1. Small business support - including business development services, registration and licensing, informal sector activity, and issues of land tenure and title. 2. Credit and Finance - including expanded micro-credit programming 3. Marketing - including pro-poor and SME marketing programs and a sustainable tourism certification program 4. Training and Capacity Building - including the expansion of public sector programs and the monitoring and regulation of private sector activities. 1 Decision analysis is a discipline that comprises the philosophies, theories, methodologies, and professional practices for addressing important decisions in a formal manner (Howard, 1984).

Abstract:

The district health report for Livingstone, Zambia, outlined an increasing prevalence of HIV/AIDS iun the district. In 1998 the prevalence wsas at 29%, in 2000 at 30%, in 2002 at 31.8% and in 2004 at 31%. This was above the national prevalence of 20% according to CBoH statistics of 2004. The district has been implementing the HIV/AIDS prevention in various organizations during the past 3 years. Most of the organizations implementing the HIV/AIDS preventive activities do not work collaboratively with other sectors and this has resulted in un-coordinated activities and wstage of the limited resources. This exploratory qualitative study aimed at undestanding participants' perceptions of factors influencing coordination between different organizations that are involved in the implementation of HIV/AIDS activities, and to note the impact that this had in the implementation of activities in a multisectoral approach to HIV/AIDS prevention.

Abstract:
This is a qualitative study whose purpose was to investigate the community radio education practices and the museum outreach education activities with a view to understanding how a museum-radio partnership may be used to engage the Livingstone community in environment and sustainability learning. Environment and sustainability issues require a community approach in order to bring about sustained responses to environmental challenges. As such, the study worked with social learning ideas of engaging the community in environment and sustainability learning. The data was generated mainly from face-to-face semi-structured interviews involving three community radio stations, Radio Listener Clubs and museum experts. The data generated was then presented to a strategy workshop involving the Livingstone Museum and Radio Musi-otunya staff. Arising from this workshop, recommendations were made about the possibility of the museum working in partnership with the radio to engage the community in environmental education. The study has shown that much of the museum environmental education activities have been confined to exhibitions and lectures within the museum building, which has affected the number of people being serviced by the museum. These education activities are arranged such that museum expert-led knowledge is presented to the audience with minimal community engagement on the environmental learning content. The study has also shown that community radio programming provides opportunities for community-led social learning which the Livingstone Museum could make use of to engage the community in environmental learning. Community radio programming allows community participation through Radio Listener Clubs, in identification and presentation of local environmental issues. This makes it a suitable tool to address locally relevant environmental issues, by the local community. Environmental issues are different from one place to another. Therefore environmental education approaches that bring issues into the museum may fail to address the different environmental education issues in different community context. The study concludes by recommending that Livingstone Museum should explore the use of community radio so that their expert knowledge and that of the radio producers could be used to shape environmental education programmes to go beyond awareness-raising.

Introduction: Zambia is among the countries in the sub-Saharan African region most severely affected with HIV/AIDS. Approximately 1.2 million (14%) Zambians were living with HIV in 2010. Zambia introduced antiretroviral therapy (ART) in the public sector in 2002, starting with two pilot sites, and rolling it out throughout the country in 2004 and 2005. To date,approximately 350,000 people have accessed HIV treatment. The long-term success of ART programs depends on optimal adherence to ART by patients.In 2010 Livingstone General Hospital (LGH), the setting for the current research had over 7,000 enrolled for HIV care of whom 3,880 patients were on ART. By the end of June 2011, it was reported that 343 patients in this hospital were between 2 to 30 days late for their medication refill appointments. This meant that these patients had missed more than one dose, and thus not meeting the required 95% of medication for viral suppression. This study explored the barriers to medication adherence experienced by ART patients at Livingstone General Hospital (LGH). Methodology: An exploratory qualitative study was conducted. Six focus group discussions(FGD) were conducted with 42 patients on ART, and follow up semi-structured interviews with 7 patients identified during the FGDs. FGDs and semi-structured interviews were audio-tape recorded and transcribed verbatim. Thematic and content analysis of transcribed data was done. Results: The study found that the barriers to ART adherence included socio-economic factors such as poverty, use of traditional complementary and alternative medicines (TCAM) and religious beliefs. Patient related factors reported to negatively affect adherence were HIV related-stigma and discrimination, alcohol use, low literacy and education levels, busy daily schedules and forgetfulness. Regimen related factors included experiencing side effects to medication and complexity of treatment regimen. Negative staff attitudes, traveling long distances to health facility, long waiting times, lack of confidentiality, poor health information and poor patient-health provider relationships were the health system factors that negatively impacted on ART adherence. Conclusion: The combination and complexity of factors affecting adherence identified in this study have posed a challenge to adherence to ART. People have been forced to make adjustments to their routine lives in order to accommodate ART. The most problematic factor identified was the use of TCAM in combination with ART or as replacement of ART.

Being healthy (‘feeling fine’) and health deterioration (‘getting sick’) were key health concerns among PLHIV prior to ART initiation. PLHIV often referred living with HIV as ‘being sick’ and experiencing poor health when already infected with HIV as ‘very sick’ and this perception about sickness and wellness partly determined the need and value placed on accessing HIV services. Motivations for starting treatment included needing to maintain or regain health, encouragement from HCWs, relatives and friends and believing in the effectiveness of ART to improve health. Prevention of HIV transmission to others was not cited to influence uptake. The majority of PLHIV reported stringent adherence to ART; even a half-hour delay in taking treatment was sometimes defined by participants as ‘non-adherence’. Initial reminders for taking ART (setting alarm, placing pills where visible) fell away as daily medication became routine. However, daily uptake of treatment had its own psychosocial and economic consequences which PLHIV had to navigate. With few exceptions, when taking the first line regimen, most PLHIV experienced both temporal (hallucinations, vomiting) and long-term (dizziness and irregular heartbeat) side-effects attributed to ART, which although not considered life threatening, could undermine ART adherence. HIV status disclosure was both limited and selective (mainly to spouses, close relatives, friends and co-workers) and deemed as promoting adherence to treatment and access to HIV services. HIV/AIDS stigma persisted even among relatively healthy PLHIV due to links with ‘promiscuity’, hampering disclosure and access to HIV services. Competing demands on participants’ time, especially livelihood activities, also disrupted accessing services. Good relationships between HCWs and PLHIV promoted access to services.

The aim of the study was to investigate the experience of dental care and oral hygiene, and the knowledge about gingivitis, periodontitis and dental caries among teacher students, in Livingstone, Zambia. Another aim was to investigate whether oral health was included in the curriculum. The study was carried out among teacher students at David Livingstone College of Education. The questionnaire consisted of 32 questions. 150 questionnaires were handed out, an external reduction appeared of 15 questionnaires and altogether 135 students participated in the study. The results showed that 74 of the students had never received dental care, while 59 had received dental care. The main reason why they had been seeking dental care was toothache. Toothbrush and toothpaste were the most common agents used for cleaning teeth. The overall knowledge about oral diseases was good. Most of the teacher students had received information about oral health in previous schools. The teacher students were positive to inform about oral health when they start practicing as teachers but they requested more information and knowledge to be familiar with the topic.
Syftet med studien var att undersöka erfarenheten av tandvård och oral hygien samt kunskap om gingivit, parodontit och karies bland lärarstudenter i Livingstone, Zambia. Ett annat syfte var att undersöka om oral hälsa var en del utav läroplanen. Studien utfördes bland lärarstudenter vid David Livingstone College of Education. Enkäten bestod av 32 frågor. 150 enkäter delades ut, ett externt bortfall på 15 enkäter förekom och sammanlagt deltog 135 lärarstudenter i studien. Resultaten visade att 74 av lärarstudenterna aldrig hade fått tandvård medan 59 hade fått tandvård. Det huvudsakliga skälet till att de hade uppsökt tandvård var tandvärk. Tandborste och tandkräm var de vanligaste hjälpmedlen vid tandrengöring. Kunskapen om orala sjukdomar var i det stora hela god. De flesta lärarstudenterna hade fått information om oral hälsa i tidigare skolor. Lärarstudenterna var positivt inställda till att informera om oral hälsa när de börjar praktisera som lärare, men de efterfrågade mer information och kunskap om ämnet.

Abstract:
A matched case-control study was carried out to identify the factors associated with the nutritional status of children in Livingstone district, Zambia. A trained field researcher collected data on demographic, feeding practices and socio-economic factors in matched groups of underweight children and normal weight children from the mothers/caregivers of the children. Interviews, using a structured pre-tested questionnaire, were used to obtain the data. All children aged from six to fifty-nine months admitted at Livingstone General Hospital during the months of October to December, 2003 with a weight for age below &ndash
2SD from the median of the reference population formed the underweight children (cases). The total was 47 children. The cases were then matched according to sex and age to 47 normal weight children attending the under five clinic at Livingstone General Hospital during the same months, with a weight for age above &ndash
2SD from the median of the reference population (controls). The final sample was 94 children. Weights were recorded using the same scale in the outpatient&rsquo
s department prior to admission and during the under five clinic session. Interviews then took place in a separate room after the clinic nurse had attended them. A separate visit was then made to the homes of the children on a different day. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were used to measure strengths of associations. Results revealed that the basic causes of underweight were the poor economic state of the country, unfavorable policies and insufficient government support in the areas of health, education, agriculture, housing and employment. Underlying causes were inadequate access to food, inadequate care of children, poor access to health services and unhealthy living environments, while immediate causes were poor food intake and disease. Low educational and literacy levels of the mothers/caregivers, unemployment and lack of sufficient finances to access basic necessities such as food, housing and health contributed to underweight.

Background: HIV counselling and testing is important as a gateway to accessing prevention, treatment, care and support services. Studies have shown that couples who are married or are in a stable heterosexual relationship are at risk of transmitting HIV infection to each other if one partner is infected. The uptake of couples counselling and testing (CHCT) by males in Livingstone is very low despite the fact that they are the decision makers in most homes. Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the factors determining the uptake of CHCT amongst males in a long term heterosexual relationship who came to a health facility for HIV counselling and testing in Livingstone, Zambia and their perceived benefits of CHCT. Methodology: A case control study was conducted with cases being men age 21 years and above, who were married/cohabiting or were in a steady heterosexual relationship for six months and more and had jointly tested for HIV as a couple, and controls were men age 21 years and above, who were married/cohabiting or were in a steady relationship for six months and more and came to be tested for HIV alone without a partner. The structured questionnaires were administered to a total of 294 participants (147 controls, 147 cases) who were recruited from three public health facilities and one private facility in Livingstone between August and September 2013.Results: The only 2 factors independently associated with testing for HIV via CHCT was, talking about HIV as a couple‟ which positively affected CHCT and „had a previous HIV test as a couple‟ which negatively affected CHCT. Findings indicate that „talk about HIV as a couple‟ was a strong independent predictor of CHCT in the multivariate analysis; however it was uncertain whether it was a predictor of CHCT or a consequence of CHCT. It is probable that having already „had a previous HIV test as a couple‟ the participants would not see the need for testing via CHCT again. Other factors that were significantly associated with uptake of CHCT on bivariate analysis but were not significant on multivariate logistic regression analysis included those that are associated with a greater likelihood of CHCT: think CHCT is beneficial /useful, know partners HIV status, know positive things about CHCT and talk about sexual issues as a couple. Other factors negatively associated with uptake of CHCT were: ever tested for HIV before, informed partner about HIV status, think partner is at risk of contracting HIV, think self is at risk of contracting HIV, low self-risk-rating of HIV infection and marital status. Conclusion: The decision for a couple to go for CHCT is probably relatively complex, because most of the factors measured were linked to each other and it was difficult to separate them to identify if a factor on its own was able to influence the uptake of CHCT. However a couple that communicates with each other about HIV issues is likely to be motivated to go for CHCT.
