1.1 Background 14 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 The Urban and Regional Planning Act No. 3 of 2015 of the Laws of Zambia requires that all districts in Zambia must formulate Integrated Development Plans (IDP) to serve as guiding documents in socio-economic and spatial planning processes for areas under their jurisdiction. Section nineteen (19) under part three of the act stipulates that a planning authority shall prepare an integrated development plan for its area. It further states that an integrated development plan shall be the principle planning instrument to guide and inform all planning and development in the area of the local authority and all planning decisions of a local authority. This implies that each local authority must prepare its own IDP to guide development planning and management for a period of ten (10) years, reviewed every five (5) years. An IDP is a legislative requirement and has the legal status to supersede all other existing plans that guide development in a district, where an IDP covers the entire district. The planning survey and issues report provides detailed analysis of the planning issues in the IDP area through an extensive and elaborate process that combines data from the field, desk and feedback processes through public consultations conducted in the three districts of Lumezi, Lundazi and Chasefu. Empirical data, spatial data, policies and laws that might affect the preparation and implementation of an IDP are identified and mitigation measures to counter negative and foreseen outcomes and impacts are incorporated in the document.

1.2 Methodology The methodology for collecting data and formulating the Planning Survey and Issues Report (PSIR) is as provided for under section seventeen (17) of the U&R Act through a set of Guidelines issued by the Ministry of Local Government. The steps for formulating the Planning Issues and Survey Report include; review of existing plans, policies and strategies; review of empirical and spatial data for sectors and cross cutting thematic areas; ddemographic analysis; ppopulation projections; ssummary of consultation with stakeholder oorganizations; summary of community consultations; ccollection of missing spatial data and new data; assessment of future demand for services; assessment of the quality of service provision; sspatial analysis; cross cutting analysis – climate change vulnerability assessment; and drafting of the PSIR. Community representatives serving in Ward Development Committees (WDCs), District Development Coordinating Committees (DDCCs), Traditional leaders, business association and sector ministries as well as Civil Society Organizations were the main source of data during consultations.

1.3 Overview The importance of an Integrated Development Plan (IDP) in this era cannot be over emphasized. This is one of the joint IDPs funded by Zambia Integrated Forest Landscape Project (ZIFL-P) in Eastern Province. The three districts in this joint IDP are Lundazi, Lumezi and Chasefu. Therefore, this part of the IDP seeks to outline the current social, economic, spatial and environmental conditions in the three districts. 15 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 1: Map showing location of the planning area in Eastern Province (Source: Lundazi IDP Team) The IDP area is situated approximately 743 Km east of Lusaka and covers a total area of 14, 068 Km Sq. It is located on fairly medium altitude of approximately 800m above sea level and near to the Lake Malawi/ Luangwa River watershed. The region shares boundaries with Chama District to the north, Mpika District to the West, Chipata District to the South, Mambwe District to the Southwest and the Republic of Malawi to the East. The main ethnic groups found in the planning area are Tumbuka, Ngoni and Chewa speaking people. Tumbuka is the most widely spoken language but there is also a very small minority ethnic groups of Bisa and Senga speaking people.

1.4 Climate The Planning area has a tropical type of climate with mean annual temperatures ranging from 17oC to 29oC. Prevailing winds are generally south - easterly and appear to have an effect on the rainfall pattern. The area lies in the medium rainfall belt (Agro-ecological cone region 2a) of Zambia with average annual rainfall of up to 800mm to 1100mm. Most of the rains fall within the wettest months of the year from October to April. The higher southern zone of the area receives more (relief) rain compared to the North. The seasons vary from year to year. Most of the floods are experienced in the valley. The soils are derived from complex plateau rocks and range from red, sandy loamy to sand clay loamy. These are the soil types that support the main population of the District. The valley basin is rich in alluvial soils. 16 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

1.5 Vegetation The vegetation of the plateau is largely Miombo woodland while that of valley is largely Mopani Woodlands. Both the plateau and the valley are covered with woodlands richly endowed with tree species for commercial value. However, the planning area has experienced massive deforestation especially the area around plateau thus causing serious ecological imbalances. The deforestation is causing problems to water catchment areas and has also resulted in severe land degradation. Figure 2: Percentage vegetation cover estimated in 2010 (left) and above ground biomass (right)

1.6 Relief and Drainage System The Lundazi planning area elevation ranges from as low as 547m to about 1,552m above sea level. The lower lands are along the Luangwa River with the elevation gradient increasing towards the north-eastern portion of the planning area. Consequently, the southern and central parts covering the plateau parts of Lumezi, Lundazi and Chasefu experience substantial changes in slope. The Luangwa valley which forms part of the IDP area is one of Zambia‟s 7 major catchments consisting of two landforms, the Luangwa valley and the plateau. The plateau is a source of many seasonal streams that merge into rivers that flow westwards to discharge into the Luangwa River in the valley. The planning area landform is typically characterized by the Luangwa valley at (550m to 750m above sea level) and higher plateau areas (over 1000m above sea level). The valley floor through which the Luangwa River meanders is part of the East African rift valley system and characterized by a flat bottom. Then the hilly area that forms descent from the plateau to the valley and the valley itself is protected as national parks and game management areas. 17 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

1.8 Key Investment Opportunities in the IDP Area The planning area possesses high comparative advantage due to its high potential investment and developmental areas as proved under the following factors;  Vast and unexploited land for agriculture, abundant pasture for livestock and many water bodies for fisheries, tourism, construction and many other industries that can be explored in the area.  Many water bodies and other perennial streams to support irrigation, Aquaculture and grazing  Agro and Livestock processing  There are three (7) forest areas and other areas that may be explored under the mining sector  Abundance of both skilled and unskilled labor  Tourism and recreational industry development and 18 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030  Construction industry Figure 4: Shows the investment opportunities in the IDP area

1.8.1 Health Sector The planning area has no private clinics or hospitals supplementing the provision of health care services. This implies that the five-kilometer radius that people are to cover from their location to the nearest clinic or hospital is unrealized. As an investment opportunity, the investor stands to bridge this gap by providing private services and make a profit.

1.8.2 Education Sector The planning area has immense potential for investment in the education sector. Under the Early Childhood Education sub-sector, the planning area adequate population numbers and service delivery gaps to support establishment of early childhood education facilities across the three districts comprising the planning area. The same case applies in the case of primary education and secondary education where there is potential for setting up green field projects to beef up the already existing government run facilities. 19 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

1.8.3 Community and Social Services Sector The planning area has a number of activities involving community development such as Self- Help Initiatives, Non-Formal Education and Skills Training, Gender and Development which includes provision of skills for income generating activities and Household Food Security Programmes. Beneficiaries for these activities include women, men, youths, the poor, and vulnerable but viable clients. Cross-cutting activities being undertaken by the Department of community development in collaboration with other stakeholders include Grant aid to communities, Gender and HIV/AIDS Awareness, Food Security Pack, Inclusive Schooling Programmes (INSPRO), Water and Sanitation Hygiene Education (WASHE) and Micro-Credit Delivery to empower Communities. There is therefore an investment opportunity for a Skills Training facility for Livelihood enhancement, recreation centers for youths and entertainment facilities to cater for all age groups.

1.8.4 Agricultural Sector Maize production and processing: There is potential to increase maize production and productivity considering the suitable weather conditions. This would motivate an increase in maize farming in the planning area. Commercial soya beans production and processing: Soils and climatic conditions support commercial soya beans production, which can be processed into a variety of products such as livestock feed production. In addition, out grower schemes can be established as well as contract farming to small scale farmers in the planning area. Horticultural and fruit crops commercial production and value addition: Most vegetables and tropical fruits can do well in the planning area due to availability of many water bodies such as dams, seasonal streams etc. Vegetables and fruits can be produced commercially all year round under irrigation and can be exported outside the planning area. Fruits like citrus, mango and bananas, can be produced and processed into Juices. Microfinance services: for lending to small scale farmers, both individual and farmer groups can be embarked on in the District. The District has an increasing number of emerging farmers who need financial support to increase agriculture production. Agricultural mechanization has been identified as one of the components that can successfully drive the agriculture sector in Africa and the planning area included. Increased productivity requires modernization of agriculture but it includes: planting, crop protection, irrigation, harvesting, processing, manufacturing. Modern technologies are critical in supporting production, as well as in value addition. Included here is labor saving equipment like maize shearers, threshers, sun-flower and groundnut oil pressers. Basing on the above information the panning area invites potential investors to invest in larger scale farming and agricultural processing industries. Markets for agricultural products are available within the planning area and neighboring regions. The produce can also be exported to neighboring countries like the Malawi, Mozambique and Tanzania.

1.8.5 Fisheries and Livestock Sector Aquaculture Development 20 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 The planning area has favorable conditions for fish farming and production. The planning area has a number of dams and constructed ponds which can be used for Aquaculture activities with the right investment. The local markets, more especially Lusuntha and Mwasempangwe Boarder Posts provide a better market for Fish and Fish Products. Livestock Livestock Farming activities in the planning area are more pronounced at small scale than commercial scale. The local markets, more especially Lusuntha and Mwasempangwe Boarder Posts provide a better market for livestock and livestock products. Poultry market and small livestock, namely sheep, pigs and goats, are poised for growth following the increase in demand among consumers.

1.8.6 Forestry Sector There are several indigenous high value tree species present in the planning area, however due to illegal harvesting most of these have been exhausted. The planning area has a total of seven (7) forest reserves. However, the status of these forest reserves in terms of stocking have been badly affected by illegal settlers who are apart from settling in also opening up agricultural fields as well as charcoal manufacturing causing a lot of deforestation. Opening up of new plantations requires huge labor force (mainly unskilled) meaning that there would be massive employment creation in the planning area while at the same time rehabilitating depleted forestry areas. Beekeeping: Beekeeping being an art of keeping bees for honey production and bees wax is one of business prospects in the planning area and it requires a small initial capital but if handled with the attention it deserves would yield much profit as an income generating activity. Forest Nurseries for Ornamental Trees and Floriculture: there is a huge potential for investing in raising ornamental tree species meant for beautifying hospitality industry premises and residential places in peri-urban and urban areas. Private Plantation: Investment in afforestation will increase availability of forest products of which demand has increased in both domestic and external market. Tree plantations can be established as a private business investment. The timber and poles can be supplied to small scale enterprise involved in carpentry, roofing and construction. Horticulture: Fruit Trees Nursery Establishment as an Income Generating Activity: Fruit tree seedlings such as pawpaw, avocado, guavas, oranges, lemons, jack fruits among others can be raised and established into an orchard for fruits for sale. Carpentry and Joinery: Forest plantations and indigenous forest areas provide wood products such as sawn timber for carpentry and joinery and creates employment through pit sawing and mechanical sawmilling.

1.8.7 Tourism Sector Tourism infrastructure in Zambia is largely underdeveloped, particularly roads, telecommunications and accommodation facilities. The Government has identified Tourism and its linkages as one of the priority sectors for development and potentially a major contributor to 21 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 the advancement of socio-economic development. There are certain sites located in forest reserves that can be excellent to establish tourism infrastructure

1.8.8 Gemstone Mining Sector The planning area has mining plants has prospects for precious minerals and mining is done at small scale. This offers an opportunity for mineral exploration. The prominent minerals found in the planning area red garnet, clear quartz, Aquamarine and gold deposits. The opportunity available to investors is to identify the quantity and quality of Minerals for further exploration and also investors with enough capital and technology are welcome to invest in this sector with the presence of government policies supporting Small Scale Mining. The marketability of the minerals is unquestionable within and outside the country.

1.8.9 General Infrastructure Sector The planning area has great potential in infrastructure development due to the fact that there is very high demand for housing, shopping facilities, recreation facilities and many others. The available housing stock in the planning area is less than the demand. Therefore, due to the favorable economic environment in the planning area, investing in housing such as flats and family houses has been quite lucrative. 22 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 PART II SURVEY AND ISSUES REPORT 23 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.0 SECTORAL AND THEMATIC ANALYSIS

2.1 Demographic Analysis

2.1.1 Introduction According to the Central Statistical Report (CSO) report of 2010, the total population of the Planning Area which includes the three districts of Lundazi, Chasefu and Lumezi stood at 323,870, while the 2020 and 2030 population was projected to be 442,3001 and 504,008 respectively2.

2.1.2 Concepts and Definitions Crude Birth Rate (CBR): Number of births in a population per thousand persons in that population. Crude Death Rate (CDR): is the total number of deaths to residents in a specified geographic area (country, state or district) divided by the total population for the same geographic area and multiplied by 100,000. De jure Population: Refers to usual household members present and usual household members temporarily absent at the time of the census. These include institutional populations in places such as hospitals/health centres, prisons and academic institutions (universities, colleges and boarding schools). De facto Population: This refers to the usual household members present and visitors who spent the census night at any given household. However, it excludes diplomatic personnel accredited to Zambia or Zambian nationals accredited to foreign missions. Employment: All persons of working age who, during a short reference period, were engaged in any activity to produce goods or provide services for pay or profit. Demographic Dividend: The economic growth potential that can result from shifts in a population‟s age structure, mainly when the share of the working-age population (15 to 64) is larger than the non-working-age share of the population (14 and younger, and 65 and older). Dependency Ratio: Ratio of children aged 0-14 and persons aged 65 years and older, per 100 persons in the age group 15-64 years old. Gross Domestic Product (GDP): Is an estimated total value of economic activities taking place in the nation (Zambian territory) in a period usually a year. Household: A group of persons who normally live and eat together. These people may or may not be biologically related to each other and make common provision for food and other essentials for living. Labour force: The sum total of the employed and the unemployed persons at a given point in time. 1 Zambia Statistics Agency 2011 – 2035 Population Projections (ZSA 2013) 2 24 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Life Expectancy at Birth: Average number of years expected to be lived by a birth cohort, based on prevailing age specific mortality rates. In other words, it is the number of years a child born today is expected to live taking into account the current mortality conditions. Non- Traditional Export (NTEs): Non- tradition exports include all such merchandize than copper and cobalt. Per Capita GDP: This is the GDP over the total population of a nation. It gives the share of the total GDP to an individual in a nation. Population Composition: Refers to the distribution of certain traits, characteristics or attributes of the population and how these affect the overall demographic structure of an area. It has three main characteristics, which include:  Demographic characteristics such as age and sex,  Social characteristics such as ethnicity and citizenship, and economic characteristics such as economic activity Population Density: Refers to the number of people resident within a standard unit of area, measured per square kilometer. Potential Labour Force: All persons of working age who, during the short reference period, were neither in employment nor in unemployment and: (a) carried out activities to “seek employment”, were not “currently available” but would become available within a short subsequent period established in the light of national circumstances (i.e. unavailable jobseekers); or (b) did not carry out activities to “seek employment”, but wanted employment and were “currently available” (i.e. available potential jobseekers). Total Fertility Rates: Average number of live births a woman would have by age 50 if she was subject, throughout her life, to the age specific fertility rates observed in a given year. The calculation assumes there is no mortality and is expressed as number of children per woman. Traditional Export (TEs): This category comprises mainly metals (i.e. copper and cobalt). Unemployment: All persons of working age who were not in employment, carried out activities to seek employment during a specified recent period and were currently available to take up employment given a job opportunity.

2.1.3 Population Characteristics and Projected Population Growth The new districts of Chasefu and Lumezi, and the revised district of Lundazi where formed after the 2010 Census and accordingly, there is no CSO projection for population of these districts. The Census 2010 does, however, provide a detailed breakdown of the population by each age group for the constituencies of Lumezi, Lundazi and Chasefu which now form the new districts. In order to estimate what the likely population of each district the grow rates anticipated by the Census have been applied to each of the three constituencies. See Table 1 below. Using this methodology, it is estimated that the population of Lundazi is 176,593 persons in 2020 and will increase to 204,443 persons in 2030. This represents a population increase of 52,329 between 2020 and 2030. It is further estimated that the population of Chasefu is 114,452 25 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 persons in 2020 and will increase to 153,349 persons in 2030. This represents a population increase of 38,897 between 2020 and 2030. Using the same methodology, it is estimated that the population of Lumezi is 109,219 and will increase to 146,216 in 2030. This represents a population increase of 38,397 between 2020 and 2030. The table below shows the projected population growth by age category for the planning area between 2020 to 2030.

Those between 35 and 64 were estimated at 18% and 3% for those 65 years and above.. The charts further show that the planning area has a very youthful population which guarantees a sturdy supply of labour in the years to come. The high child population has multiple implications for the future economic growth and development of the planning area. Increased demand for education and health services for example shall call for increased investment in school and health infrastructure to increase school places and bringing health services closer to the people in the planning area. Population growth at a slightly lower growth rate due to an expected fall in fertility is anticipated to take place in urban part of Lundazi as well as all the growth poles in Chasefu, Lumezi and the remainder of Lundazi.

2.1.4 Population Dependency Ratio The Population Dependency Ratio is a measure showing the ratio of the number of dependents aged zero to 14 and over the age of 65 years to the total population aged 15 to 64. Also known as the total dependency ratio as an indicator gives insights into the number of people of non- working age, compared with the number of those of working age. A high dependency ratio means those of working age, and the overall economy; face a greater burden in supporting the aging population. The dependency ratio, of people younger than 15 and older than 64 to the working age population (15 - 64) for Lundazi is estimated to be 98 to 100i which is extremely high compared to an average of 50 dependents for every 100 working age adults in developed and developing economies of the world where demographic dividends have been achieved. By implication, the high dependency ratio is responsible for relatively high poverty levels as few working age adults have to support more dependents (children and the aged) leaving them with little or no disposable incomes to spend on improving the quality of life for family members. 28 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 7: Showing child and adult dependency ratios for the IDP area Based on the population projections in Table 1 above, below are estimated dependency ratios for each of the three districts. Table 3: Shows estimates the dependency ratios for each of the three districts. Lundazi Chasefu Lumezi 2010 2020 2025 2030 2010 2020 2025 2030 2010 2020 2025 2030 Child Dependency 92.4 88.1 83.1 78.6 105.5 105.5 100.6 94.9 102.3 97.6 92.0 87.0 Ratio Aged Dependency 6.1 5.9 6.0 5.9 6.3 6.1 6.2 6.2 2.5 4.5 4.5 4.5 Ratio Total Dependency 98.5 94.0 89.0 84.5 111.8 106.7 101.1 95.9 106.2 101.3 95.8 90.7 Ratio The more rural districts of Chasefu and Lumezi had higher dependency ratios in 2010 as compared to Lundazi which is more urbanised. It is expected that the dependency ratios in all districts will slightly decline by 2025 and beyond in line with a falling fertility rates in the planning area which is anticipated to fall to 3.9 children per woman from an average of 5.5 children per woman in 2030 and 2020 respectively3. 3 CSO 2010 – Census of Housing and Population 29 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.1.5 Fertility and Mortality Rate Fertility refers to the actual reproductive performance of the population. Fertility is based on the number of live births in a population. The total fertility rate is expressed as average number of children a woman would have by the end of her child bearing years if she bore children at the current age specific fertility rate. Table 4: Showing Fertility Rates in the IDP Area Age Group Number Average no. The table on the left shows that age specific fertility of of Children Rural Urban rates for the year 2010 peaked at age 20-24 (180 Women ever born births per 1000 women) and were lowest among Total 94,938 3.3 89,831 5,107 women less than age 15 years of age. Total Fertility Rates (TFR) for the age categories according to CSO 12 - 14 11686 0.0 0.0 0.0 2010 census data shows the districts in the planning area had moderately high fertility rates for the age 15 - 19 16587 0.3 0.3 0.2 bands 35-39 (5.7), 40-44 (6.3) and subsequently 6.4 for the rest of the age groups. Data also shows that 20 - 24 13665 1.8 1.8 1.1 fertility rates were considerably higher in rural areas (3.3) than in urban areas (2.3). Furthermore, evidence 25 - 29 11775 3.3 3.3 2.2 shows rural areas had higher rates of Teenage childbearing at 0.3 than urban areas at 0.2 implying 30 - 34 8780 4.7 4.8 3.4 the need for specific policy interventions to address early sex debut among children and adolescents, early 35 - 39 7833 5.7 5.7 4.1 child pregnancies and associated outcomes.

Where fa is the age-specific fertility rate for women whose age corresponds to the five-year age group a. Mortality on the other hand refers to deaths in a population. These two measures have been used in this report to explain the extent of births and deaths in the planning area, crude birth rate and crude death rate. Total Fertility Rate for the planning area in 2010 was slightly higher than the provincial rate at 3.3 and 3.1 respectively. By 2030, a further slight decline in fertility is expected with each woman expected to bear about 4.8 children throughout her lifespan. Beyond 2030 going into 2050, fertility rates for the planning area like the rest of the country are expected to fall further down to below 3.9 children 30 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 per woman during which period the district is expected to have a significantly larger proportion of the population working-age and if skilled and employable contributing immensely to the economy of the district. With increased investments in reproductive health and family planning and general improvement in health infrastructure, equipment and the quality of human capital, fertility levels are further expected to decline significantly leading to children being able to achieve higher basic levels of primary health and education.

2.1.6 Population Pyramid Population pyramids are used to show change to age structure. The planning area‟s population pyramid for 2030 is expected to slightly narrow at the base due to a slight decline in fertility which is expected to fall slightly from an average of 5.5 across age specific groups to below 5.0 children per womanii. Despite this decline, the district‟s total fertility rates are expected to remain relatively high with each working adult supporting several dependents. 2020 Population Projection Pyramid - Lundazi District (CSO, 2010) %Male %Female Figure 8: Shows the 2020 Population Projection Pyramid

2.1.7 Crude Birth Rate Crude birth rate indicates the number of live births occurring during the year, per 1000 population estimated at midyear. The crude birth rate of planning area was estimated at 34.36 births per 1000 people in 2019. Although this rate is slightly lower than the national figure estimated at 35.8 per 1000 people, the population for planning areas is expected to continue growing given the high fertility rates.

2.1.8 Crude Death Rate: Based on the national average the crude death rate for the planning area is estimated to be about 6.60 deaths per 1000 population in 2019. The rate is almost the same as that of the nation which was estimated at 6.63 deaths per thousand population, the lowest level in decades. Subtracting the Crude Death Rate (CDR) from the Crude Birth Rate (CBR) provides the rate of natural 31 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 population increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration. Given the high crude birth rate of 25.34 per 1000 people, Lundazi district has a rapidly expanding population at the rate of 18.74 per 1000 people.

2.1.9 Poverty Ranking The table below provides an insight into the poverty status of the twenty-seven (27) wards in the planning area compared with one another. Head to head comparison indicate that Mnyamazi ward in Lundazi district is the poorest ward going by the number of poor people living the ward. The ward has a total of 22,268 poor people compared to Lukusuzi Ward in Lumezi district which has a paltry 1,832 poor people. The population density dimension makes Mnyamazi appear much worse off in terms of poverty ranking by number of poor people. This picture calls for investment in programs aimed at uplifting the economic status of people living these wards that have high populations of the poor. The opposite is true of Lukusuzi ward which by number of poor people is ranked as the least poor. The low population density in the ward in part is contributing to the high poverty status because the number of poor people is lowest of the 27 wards when in actual sense the entire population of the ward may be classified as living in extreme poverty. This picture is depicted in the table below. Table 5: Showing poverty ranking of Wards in the planning area Ranking by Poverty Ranking by District Ward Poverty Std.

Low access to electricity, poor housing, low access to improved water supply and sanitation are the top four causes of deprivation in the planning area ranking between 40% and 98%. Secondary education completion rates are also extremely low within the planning area accounting for a paltry 5% for Chasefu and Lumezi and 8% for Lundazi district. Across all indicators depicted in the graph above, the three districts in the planning area fair badly in comparison to the provincial outlook as they rank lowly against other districts in the province.

2.1.10 Land Use Patterns

2.1.10.1 Urban Form The urban form of Lundazi has a profile of dispersed and low-density population. Further, population increase has consequently led to high housing demand. Against the background of high population density in these areas, there is an apparent lack basic social services in the area such as access roads, piped water and electricity among others. The existing current township area of Lundazi is built–up, and comprises mostly haphazard development, with almost half 33 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 well-planned areas. Those of Chasefu and Lumezi are generally haphazard and linear in form along major and district roads. The spatial development trend consists of planned and unplanned. The current and expected future demographic and economic development situation for planning area will have an impact on the future land uses within the township and areas adjacent to CBD designate areas, growth poles and nodes of Chasefu and Lumezi sub-centres. The location of the IDP area in the province, on the Nakonde corridor makes it ideal for investment. Map of Planning Area showing the extent of Settlements in the Planning Area Legend CHASEFU Populated Areas Unpopulated Areas LUNDAZI LUMEZI Figure 10: Map showing the extent of Settlements in the Planning Area 2.1.10. 2 Impact of Social-Economic Reforms on Spatial Dynamics Exponential growth of the population in the IDP area requires the provision of additional health and educational facilities and services, thus this is expected to continue exerting pressure in land resources in terms of spatial developments in the IDP area especially the CBD and township. The demand for space for housing units in the urban areas is driven by the vast and rapidly growing population in the planning area.  The demand for food production for the population in the planning area has resulted in expansion of the spatial areas. However, the major spatial extents that are affected in this context are areas under customary tenure. The population in the IDP area survives on agriculture as their main livelihood, thus the current demand for land is high and slowly altering the spatial extents from other land uses to agriculture uses.  Major economic activities in the planning area such as agriculture and trade have influenced the spatial dynamics due to the need to establish and develop industries in the area. This equally has affected the spatial dynamics in the area, for example the establishment of ginnery, hospital and education facilities in the township areas demanded for huge spatial extents of land for setup. 34 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.3 Education

2.3.1 Overview Education plays a very important role in the development of the area. There is a much closer relationship between educated community and developed communities. Most innovations and creative initiative comes from educated communities. The planning area has a total number of 302 education facilities which include; 2 Boarding secondary schools, 31 day secondary schools, 193 primary schools and 76 community schools (MoGE, 2019, Lundazi).

2.3.2 Description of the Existing State Of Development

2.3.2.1 Availability of Service Table 6: Enrolments and Staffing levels in schools (Source: Lundazi District Education Board, 2019) NO. OF PUPILS STAFF IN SCHOOLS REQUIRED DISTRICT BOYS GIRLS TOTAL MALE FEMALE TOTAL STAFF DEFICIT LUNDAZI 17389 17107 34496 315 289 604 862 258 LUMEZI 17500 16322 33822 287 140 427 846 419 CHASEFU 15931 15104 31035 364 195 559 776 217 TOTAL 50820 48533 99353 966 624 1590 2484 894 According to Standards and Evaluation Guidelines for the Ministry of Education, Science, Vocational Training and Early Education, 2015, the following were noted. Firstly, the Teacher-Pupil ratio is very high (1:63) against the requirement of 1:40. This shows that the number of employed trained teachers in the planning area is far much less than the required staff. In other ways, there is need for 2,484 to handle 99,353 pupils. Additionally, the most affected schools are those located in rural areas than those in urban. Schools in distant and remote areas have very few teachers especially the valley schools. Currently, there is over utilization of classrooms in schools in the valley. The poor staffing levels as well as insufficient teaching and learning materials have drastically affected the effective teaching and learning in schools. Additionally, there are also low levels of school enrolment and high drop-out rates among girls especially in rural parts of the district. The main contributing factors are child pregnancies, early marriages, long distances to schools and high levels of poverty among households. At tertiary level the planning area has only one trade training school under construction. 35 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.3.2.2 Water supply in Schools Table 7: Showing Schools with water facilities in the planning area LUNDAZI Secondary: 10 of which 1 is a boarding school, Primary: 56, Community: 14 and 4 Private schools of which 1 is a secondary. CHASEFU Secondary: 7, Primary: 65 and 28 Community schools LUMEZI Secondary: 11 of which one is a boarding, Primary: 72, Community: 34 and 1 Private school Approximately 50% of the existing schools do not meet the standard classrooms required for effective education provision. About 90% of schools have at least either a bore hole and/or a well, 25% of the schools with either a bore hole or well still experience low water yields during the dry season. Only three secondary schools have piped water supply serviced by Commercial Utility Company (Lundazi District Situation Analysis, 2016).

2.3.2.3 Pupil School Drop Outs and Progression Rates in the Planning Area The Drop Out rate is high among the girls especially in grade 5-7. Most of the reasons cited were that the girls are leaving school due to early marriages and pregnancies. Even with the introduction of the Re-Entry policy, few girls come back to school once they fall pregnant Table 8: Showing number of pupils that dropped out of school in 2015 Reason for Grade 1 Grade 2 Grade 3 Grade 4 Grade 5 Grade 6 Grade 7 Totals Drop Rate M F M F M F M F M F M F M F M F Illness 3 1 2 3 2 2 6 14 4 4 1 21 21 Deaths 0 0 3 4 4 4 7 2 3 4 2 8 2 6 21 18 Pregnancy 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 9 23 0 38 Expelled 0 0 Early 7 20 1 24 5 87 6 143 Marriage Total 3 0 1 6 7 6 7 12 9 46 7 41 13 117 48 220 (Source: Lundazi District Situation Analysis, 2016) 36 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Table 9: Showing pupil progression and deprivation rates in the planning area in 2010 CONSTITUENCY Population Percent Percent Percent Child Marriages Child Deprivation (Defacto) Completed Completed Completed Prevalence Rate Marriages Rate Primary Secondary Tertiary Ranking School Education CHASEFU 94,842 36.8 5.1 2.8 46.4 18.0 86.97 LUMEZI 89,332 34.9 5.3 2.9 45.2 17.0 88.73 LUNDAZI 124,246 41.6 8.6 4.5 40.9 12.0 79.72 TOTAL /AVERAGE 308,420 37.7 6.3 3.4 44.1 15.7 85.1 Source: Lundazi District Situation Analysis, 2016) From the above table we can deduce that the high deprivation rate which stands at 85.1% has an effect on prevalence rate of child marriages which currently stands at 44.1%. This entails that to reduce on the prevalence of child marriages, there is need to put more effort to reduce deprivation rate through the provision of basic needs as health, education and other in order to improve the standard of living. Figure 11: Rate of child marriages in Eastern Province by constituency According to CSO 2010, the poverty prevalence rate in the IDP planning area is 85% which is higher than the provincial prevalence rate which is at 84%. On the other hand, figure 12 above shows that the planning area has the highest rate of child marriages in eastern province. From this data, we can therefore conclude that the high poverty rate has a negative effect on the child marriages. Therefore, there is need to up scale the livelihood activities to reach the majority of 37 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 household thereby improving the living standard and to further have a positive impact in reducing child marriage.

2.3.4 Quality and Distribution of Education Services According to the Ministry of General Education database, the planning area has a total of 302 education facilities including two (2) Boarding Secondary Schools located in Lundazi and Lumezi districts, 31-day secondary schools, 193 primary schools and 76 community schools. The map below showing education facilities indicate that the distribution of these facilities is not equitable as certain parts of the planning area are only serviced by a few primary schools without secondary schools. The map further indicates that spatial distribution of these facilities is concentrated along major and district roads leaving much of the population in the hinterland unserved. For instance, seventeen (17) out of thirty-three (33) secondary schools in the planning area are located in Lundazi and Chasefu with Lumezi hosting the remaining 11. This is against the fact that Lumezi covers over 60% of the total land mass of the planning area. This implies that learners have to travel long distances to access education services at points of delivery closest to them, often covering more than 5km radius stipulated in the country‟s education policy as the maximum walkable distance a child should walk to their nearest school. In the case of absence of a secondary school in the area, children are often forced to drop out of school in grade seven (7) as their parents have no capacity to send them to distant boarding secondary schools. For primary school learners, depending on the distance involved, the children either start school late to allow for their strength to walk long distances every day to and back from school or they drop out early or in later grades as they cannot cope up with the stress and demands of long distances alongside the pressures of their learning environment. Noticeable on the map below is the open vast area lying across the middle of Lumezi extending into Chasefu. This area is largely unpopulated because it hosts Lukusuzi National Park in the south and Lundazi National Forest in the north where settlements are not permitted. The overall effect of the scenario explained above is exemplified by statistics provided in figures 1 and 2 above, showing the levels of poverty and rates of child pregnancies in three constituencies of the planning area levels. Table 2 above summarizes the status-quo, indicating the Chasefu and Lumezi lead the three parts of the planning area in terms of school dropout rate, child marriage and deprivation. This, therefore means that in allocating financial and other resources during the plan period, careful consideration of special characteristics and attributes of the three parts of planning area shall be made in taking care of the disparities identified based on spatial and socio-economic data available. 38 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 12: Map showing education facilities in the Planning Area (Source, Lundazi IDP team)

2.3.5 Impact of Changes Anticipated over the Next Ten Years Impact of changes anticipated over the next ten years are; Increased demand for more Human Resource and capacity development, increased demand for more education infrastructure, increased demand for teaching and learning materials, cost of educational infrastructure and location of infrastructure.

2.3.6 Impact of Change in Population There is increasing presence of private child care centres in Lundazi urban. Most of the population live within the 5km radius of the educational infrastructure. Despite the presence of schools limited number of school places for children remains a challenge. With the expected population increase in the district over the next decade, there will be need to rehabilitate and expand the existing school infrastructure as well as building new schools, particularly primary and secondary schools. There is also shortage of housing infrastructure for staff and auxiliary facilities such as sanitation facilities, which has contributed to low teacher pupil ratio in most schools. The poor staffing levels as well as insufficient teaching and learning materials have drastically affected the effective teaching and learning in schools. Additionally, there are also low levels of school enrolment and high drop-out rates among girls especially in rural parts of the district. The main contributing factors are child pregnancies, early marriages and high levels of poverty among households. At tertiary level the planning area has one newly constructed trades school. 39 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.3.7 Environment and Climate Change Children need to be equipped with good quality education that equips them with tools to ensure their well-being and their positive contribution to society. Knowledge, life skills and values related to the social, cultural, environmental and economic aspects of life are vital components of education. In the local setup, pupils are very cardinal in information dissemination. Educating pupils on environmental conservation and protection has proven to have a trickledown effect to the parents/guardians as they help educate them. Degraded environments contribute to absenteeism as more time is needed to collect firewood and water leaving less time for school. A healthier environment means that girls travel shorter distances to collect water and firewood and have more time to go to school. The construction of schools and school facilities can damage the environment through deforestation and pollution. The facilities provided at schools and the quality of the school environment also have an impact on attendance and learning.

2.3.8 Gender Analysis Social norms related to gender, family, work and education imply social expectations of women‟s and girls‟ prioritization of family over professional careers and less provision and uptake of educational opportunities. This is especially relevant for women and girls in the planning area where they also face the risk of accessing poor quality education. In addition, there is limited infrastructure coupled with long distances to access the education facilities. According to MoGE, 2019, the total enrolment of 99,353 pupils was recorded out of which 48,533 were girls representing 48.9% while the boys were 50,820 representing 51.1 %. Moreover, the number becomes smaller along the way, as most girls drop out of school due to the following reasons:  Focus on domestic work and care giving  Early marriages  Long distances being covered to access the schools 40 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 13: Showing prevalence rate of Child Marriages in the IDP compared to Eastern Province

2.3.9 COVID-19 and Education Like in any other sector, the COVID 19 pandemic presents an enormous challenge on the education sector as both teachers and learners are at risk of contracting the disease. If not properly handled, the disease threatens the foundation for the development of skilled human capital necessary for local economic growth and development of the planning area. It highlights the strong need for sustainable investment in both the local health and education systems to prevent and mitigate the spread and impact of the pandemic on the sector and the region as a whole. 41 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.4 Health

2.4.1 Overview The IDP Area has two (2) Level One Hospitals located in Lumezi and Lundazi districts which also serve as referral hospitals for the 56 health facilities in the area. A new district hospital is under construction in Lundazi district which will serve as the district‟s level one hospital as the current district hospital reverts to the status of Urban Clinic. Medical facilities are located in different parts of the district that have been divided into health catchment areas. The current numbers of health facilities in the planning area are not adequate to provide required level of quality health services closer to the people as envisioned by the Ministry of Health Policy the Seventh National Development Plan and the country‟s vision 2030.

2.4.2 Key Policies, Plans and Strategies The planning area will adopt the following key policies from the National level based on its impact on the Health sector: Table 10: Health Sector Policies and Plans and Strategies PLANS, POLICIES AND KEY ELEMENT SN STRATEGY 1.

2.4.3 Description of the existing state of development

2.4.3.1 Availability of facilities The anticipated population increase from 442,300 in 2020 to about 504,008 people in 2030 is expected to exerted immense pressure on the existing health facilities. According to the District Health Management Information System database, the planning area has a total of Fifty-Three (53) health facilities which include two (2) 1st Level Hospitals, Twenty-Four (24) Rural Health Centres and Twenty-Six (26) Health Posts dotted across the planning area. Another hospital is under construction which shall serve as a district hospital while the current district hospital shall serve as an urban clinic.

2.4.3.2 Quality of services including key indicators of performance One of the hospitals is located in Lundazi serving 40% of the total population of the planning area with the other located in Lumezi serving the entire population of Lumezi district. In addition to the district hospital, Lundazi is serviced by four (4) Rural Health Centres (RHC), one (1) Urban Health Centre and 10 Health Posts. Chasefu district is serviced by six Rural Health Centres and seven (7) Health Posts. There is no hospital in the area and all emergencies and critical cases are referred to Lundazi first level hospital for attention. Lumezi on the other hand is serviced by one (1) hospital situated at Lumezi sub-centre on Lundazi-Chipata road, approximately 120 kilometers south of the planned central business district (CBD) for the newly established district. This means all referrals from the facilities in the north-east and north-west of the hospital have to take over an hour and half or more to reach the hospital. The area has fourteen (14) other RHCs and seven (7) health posts to serve the population. Spatial distribution of these health facilities is therefore a serious issue of concern compounded by poor access roads. Like the education sector, the net effect of the status-quo described above is best depicted in the statistics provided in figures 1 and 2 above, showing the levels of poverty and high rates of teenage pregnancies and child marriages in three districts of the planning area among other negative outcomes. Additionally, CSO data indicate that Chasefu and Lumezi districts lead the in terms of school dropout rate and general deprivation. This, therefore means that in allocating financial and other resources during the plan period, careful consideration of special characteristics and attributes of the three parts of planning area shall be made in taking care of the disparities identified based on spatial and socio-economic data available 43 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 14: Map showing location of Health Facilities in the Planning Area The figure above indicates that the distribution of health facilities in the planning area is not even across the planning area. While some parts are serviced by small facilities such as health posts coupled with inadequate numbers of health workers, other areas are well serviced by several health facilities located within short distances. The figure clearly shows that health facilities in most parts of the planning area are located at a radius way more than the national accessibility standards making it difficult for rural populations to access basic health services. For instance, residents in most valley parts of Lumezi district have to travel an average of 50kilometres to get to a health post and more than 60 kilometres to get to a Rural Health Centre in case of a referral. This unequal and inadequate spatial distribution of health facilities presents districts in the planning area with numerous challenges. An estimated 70% of people in the rural parts of Lumezi district live outside the standard 5kilometre buffer of a health facility. In Chasefu and Lundazi districts an estimated 50% of the rural population live outside the 5kilometre radius compared to less than 10% in urban parts of the planning area. This scenario makes it difficult for a good section of the population in the planning area to access basic health services. The picture therefore calls for construction of new health facilities and upgrading of existing ones to meet the demands of the growing population in the planning area.

2.4.4 Top Ten Causes of Morbidity (All Ages) There are different causes of morbidity in all ages and the most prominent ones are shown in the table below. The table shows the incidence of the top 10 diseases in the planning area in all ages 44 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 and their impact over the past 3 years starting from 2019 to 2018. The morbidity in all ages has remained the same throughout the past 3 years with Malaria, RI non-pneumonia, Diarrhoea (non- bloody) being the leading cause among the top 10 cause of morbidity though they seem to have decreased in 2018. Table 11: Showing Top Ten Causes of Morbidity in all Ages across the Planning Area 2016 2017 2018 Incidence/ Diseases Incidence/1000 Diseases 1000 Diseases Incidence/1000 1 Malaria 560.12 Malaria 590.40 Respiratory Infection: 526 non-pneumonia 2 RI: non-pneumonia 444.56 RI: Non-pneumonia 445.41 Malaria Confirmed 339 cases 3 RI: pneumonia 84.39 RI: Pneumonia 97.71 Diarrhoea (non- 74 bloody) 4 Diarrhoea (non- 83.12 Diarrhoea (non- 92.80 Muscular skeletal and 62 bloody) bloody) connective tissue (not trauma) 5 Muscular skeletal 53.96 Muscular skeletal 54.39 Digestive system: (not 46 and connective and connective infectious) tissue (not trauma) tissue (not trauma) 6 Digestive system: 46.57 Digestive system: 43.39 Respiratory Infection: 36 (not infectious) (not infectious) pneumonia 7 Dental Carries 31.56 Dental Carries 31.86 Dental Carries 23 8 Trauma: Other 26.83 Trauma: Other 30.33 Skin Diseases (not 23 Injuries, wounds Injuries, wounds infectious) 9 Skin Diseases (not 24.09 Skin Diseases (not 26.74 Trauma: Other Injuries, 13 infectious) infectious) wounds 10 Eye diseases 22.55 Throat Diseases 15.31 Dental Disease 9 (infectious) Source: HMIS Database 2016-2018

2.4.5 COVID 19 as a Key Emerging Global and Local Health Concern The COVID 19 crisis is drawing attention to the already overburdened public health system in the IDP area and the challenges faced during recruiting, deploying, retaining and protecting sufficient well trained supported and motivated health workers. It highlights the strong need for sustainable investment in health systems including the workforce. It also calls for descent working conditions training and equipment including occupational safety. Most of the services have been disrupted due to the COVID 19 pandemic. It is important to take precautions at all times. 45 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.4.6 Issues arising from public participation process

2.4.6.1 Availability of services  Lack of adequate health facilities  Long distance to the nearest health post and expectant mothers move long distances to access health care  Poor Road network which hinders peoples access to places as most areas are cut off during the rainy season  Lack of safe and clean drinking water.  Lack of sanitary pit latrines, only 20% of the people use pit latrines, the rest of the communities use the bush

2.4.6.2 Quality of services including key indicators of performance In as much as the health centres are available, they are in adequate and the people do not enjoy the services because:  They walk long distances to get to the nearest health centre  Inadequate staff to attend to the population in need of health services  Inadequate medicines and medical supplies

2.4.7 The impact of changes anticipated over the next 10 years

2.4.7.1 Population change – future demand for services and facilities The anticipated population increase is expected to exert immense pressure on the existing health facilities. There are many changes that will occur and this will impact the health sector in a huge way. There will be increase in population which will require  Increase in the provision of additional health services and facilities  Increased demand for more Human Resource and capacity development  Increased demand for more healthy infrastructure  Increased demand for medical requisites and supplies  Cost of health infrastructure  Location of infrastructure

2.4.7.2 Existing and proposed investment and development programs  There is need to build more health facilities as the ones in existence are not enough especially level 1 hospitals as the current ones do not meet the demands of health services.  There is need to employ more staff for both the new and existing health facilities  There is need to invest in medicines and medical supplies 46 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030  There is need to equip the new and existing health facilities with proper medical equipment to meet the demands of health services.

2.4.8 The Impact of Continuation of Existing Trends on Land use and Population Distribution Patterns  Demand for land for health infrastructure  Re-location of unplanned settlements and developments to pave way for new infrastructure  Land degradation and general environmental decay

2.4.9 The impact of existing trends on the environment and climate change Given the continued status-quo, it is anticipated that increased demand for health infrastructure, re-location of unplanned settlements and developments to pave way for new infrastructure will inevitably lead to land degradation and general environmental decay among other negative impacts. This is ultimately expected to impact negatively on current regional and local efforts to halt and begin reversing the worsening environmental decay and climate change. Increased demand for land will imply opening up new forest areas to construct new infrastructure, increased use of forest resources in the form of timber and other products for use in construction, increased generation of solid and other forms of waste to the detriment of the wellbeing of the environment. Inevitable outcome from this trajectory is typified by heightened release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere resulting in regional climate patterns.

2.4.10 The impact of environmental and climate change issues on the sector One of the effects of climate change that has been experienced in the planning area has been the lowering of ground water levels. This has resulted in a lot of dry boreholes across the district and the drying of streams and dams. Most of rural parts of the area depend on these water points for domestic use. This has led to the use of unclean and unsafe water. A safe and adequate water supply is crucial to the attainment of universal health care and outcomes. The planning area is experiencing shortages in safe water supply which has resulted in people walking long distances to access clean and safe drinking water which gravely affects their health. Impacts of climate change are also affecting the health of vulnerable populations in the area. Climate changes are predicted to increase morbidity and mortality levels associated with climate- sensitive diseases. Malaria, being the most common disease in the area, it requires a constant status assessment due to flash floods perennially affecting the valley parts of the planning area as water recedes and stagnates, creating favorable breeding environments for mosquitoes, which will in turn transmit more diseases. In addition, the area has experienced increase in rainfall and flooding events in recent years, which can increase siltation of water sources such as Lumimba, Lumezi and Lundazi rivers and carry pollutants such as fertilizer and pesticides, contaminating water sources and exacerbating health and sanitation problems on people who depend on these rivers for water supply. In general, emerging environmental issues and climate change will result increased environmental degradation from increased human activities arising from infrastructure 47 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 development and required matching investment in solid waste management and general environmental management

2.4.11 Gender Analysis The most vulnerable groups relating to health issues are women, children and the aged. Delivery of health services in the planning area is a major concern. Limited resources and access issues can impede quality service delivery to the intended target populations. A survey on the priority needs of women, especially those in rural areas shows that construction and rehabilitation of health facilities took the centre stage. Additional gender and health concerns for women include limited access to adequate care during pregnancy and child birth. Therefore, providing healthcare to children and the aged as they are most vulnerable to disease and infection is another gender issue because women tend to be the primary caregivers and take the lead in monitoring children and aged people‟s health. The limited number of health facilities adds a greater burden on the women, the old and the children as they have to cover long distances to access health services at the nearest health facilities in their areas. This was noticed in all 27 wards of the planning area. High rates of maternal mortality remain key health and development issue in the planning area. Most maternal deaths are preventable. However, inadequate access to health services and the limited capacity of medical practitioners to deal with complications contribute to higher death rates. This is especially prevalent in rural parts of the planning area where in many cases a typical health post only has one qualified nurse running it. According to the 2018 study, delay in seeking care by pregnant women was the leading cause of maternal deaths and complications. The study showed that delayed referrals to higher health facilities were associated with maternal deaths. These delays can be grouped into three categories of „delays‟ as: delay by the patient in the decision to seek care, delay in getting to the health facility (which can be attributed to the fact that the facility is not within 5km radius) and delay in the provision of adequate care (limited staff to attend to high number of patients). A case in point is staffing level statistics prevailing specifically in Lundazi district of the IDP Area where there are 3 medical doctors, 13 clinical officers, 76 nurses, 5 pharmacy technologists, 9 laboratory technicians and 53 daily classified employees catering for approximately 152,114 people in the area. The picture for Chasefu and Lumezi is not different. Another contributing factor to maternal mortality is the state of the roads in the IDP area. Most of the roads in the rural areas are not graded making it hard to reach the hospital on time to access better medical attention. Most of the rural areas are at risk of being cut off from the Boma especially during the rainy season as bridges connecting them are washed away. 48 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Table 12: Showing staffing levels in Health facilities in Lundazi district.

Against a standard of 1 doctor to a population of 10,000 for example, Lundazi district struggles with an overburdened medical doctor at the ratio of 1 doctor to a population of 51,000 people. This therefore calls for improved investment into human resource development and deployment to health facilities in the planning area. 49 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.5 Agriculture

2.5.1 Overview The Ministry of Agriculture is responsible for providing extension services throughout the planning area and Zambia at large. The planning area has five agriculture blocks divided into forty-four (44) agriculture camps. All the 44 camps are manned by camp extension officers representing 100% staffing level. Despite the availability of agriculture extension services, there is still low adoption rate of new agriculture technologies which results into low productivity rate hence food insecurity at house hold level.

2.5.2 Key Government Priorities Being and to Be Implemented at A Local Level The following table describes the key government policies and plans which regulate the agriculture sector. Table 13: Key government priorities being and to be implemented at a local level KEY ELEMENTS 1 Agriculture An efficient,  Increase agricultural productivity and land under cultivation sector vision competitive, sustainable by 2030 and export-led  Increase exports of agricultural and agro-processed products agriculture sector that by 2030 assures food security  Preserve the agricultural resource base by 2030 and increased income  Increase land under cultivation by 2030 by 2030  Increasing land under irrigation by 2030  Increase livestock population to by 2030 7th National A diversified and  Develop irrigation infrastructure to promote all year-round Development export-oriented production as well as climate smart agricultural practices Plan agriculture  Promote small-scale agriculture a) Development of agriculture cooperatives Sector  Improve production and productivity a) Productivity-enhancing technology development; b) Farm block development; c) Irrigation development; d) Agriculture input supply management; e) Aquaculture development; f) Research and development promotion (crops, livestock and fisheries); g) Early warning systems development; National Agricultural Policy 50 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.5.3 Description of the Existing State of Development

2.5.3.1 Availability of Service The IDP area is divided into 5 agricultural blocks i.e. Lumezi, Mwase, Central, Emusa and Valley block. There are 44 agricultural camps and only 26 are manned. The camps are divided into 6-8 zones each. Each officer is currently serving about 2,675 farmers on average. But the recommended Camp Extension Officer to farmer ratio is 1:400. The main functions of agricultural extension include disseminating technical and other information to the farming community, providing technical services in irrigation, farm power mechanization and land husbandry and providing technical information in crop production, horticultural production, nutrition, crop protection and soil fertility. The department is implementing the Conservation Agriculture Scaling Up CASU project in twelve (12) camps, Sustainable Intensification of Maize Legume Systems in Eastern Province of Zambia (SIMLEZA) project in two (2) camps, Orange Fleshed Sweet Potatoes(OFSP) under the International Potatoes Centre (CIP) in fourteen (14) camps and the Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) project in fourteen (14) wards respectively. Extension Services The structure of the agricultural extension services in the district is as follows:  The District Agricultural Coordinator‟s office where there are the field services, fisheries, livestock and animal health, and cooperative and marketing.  The district is zoned into Agricultural blocks which are manned by Block Extension Officers (BEO). The main extension activities are to facilitate increased agricultural production by:  Transfer of production technologies to the farming communities  Being used as information centers for the farmers and other agricultural based agencies  Being used as research centers in terms of setting up research plots or trials or demonstrations

2.5.3.2 Quality of Service Including Key Indicators of Performance The IDP area has about 87,236 farmers most of whom are small and medium scale farmers with very few commercial farmers. Maize, groundnuts, sunflower, soybeans, and beans are the main food crops grown. Tobacco and cotton are the two major commercial crops that are grown. Other crops grown are Soya beans, sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, sunflower, millet, cassava, cowpea, paprika, rice, sorghum, Barbara nuts and green gram. Vegetables such as cabbage, rape, onion, tomato and eggplants are also grown. Below is the table highlighting the levels crops grown in the IDP area. 51 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Table 14: Showing production levels of crops grown in the IDP Area in comparison with the Eastern Province TYPE OF CROP EASTERN PROVINCE LUNDAZI IDP AREA Maize 264,714 56,706 Sorghum 5,949 2,504 Millet 6,895 5,314 Rice 14,153 5,406 Cassava 47,949 18,348 Sweet potatoes 108,119 26,534 Irish potatoes 18,007 6,857 Groundnuts 209,172 43,832 Mixed Beans 53,440 16,096 Cow peas 37,679 9,322 Wheat 484 150 Cotton 88,003 23,380 Burly Tobacco 14,895 4,949 Virginia Tobacco 3,243 702 Sunflower 131,381 30,819 Soya Beans 36,680 21,780 Paprika 1,325 351 Sugar cane 38,492 8,332 Cashew Nuts 2,830 300 Vegetables 74,290 18,160 Orchads 6,314 1,210 Coffee 230 68 Velvet Beans 5,500 601 Bambara Nuts 9,557 1,187 Pineapple 260 78 Other Crops 9,190 1,890 Dept. of Agriculture: Lundazi, 2020 52 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.5.3.3 Issues Arising from the Public Participation Process Availability of service The IDP area has Co-operatives stretching through all the agricultural blocks, Mwase, Lumezi, Emusa, Central (on the plateau) and the valley, covering all the 27 Wards. There also exist Facilitation and rural finance schemes such as the farmer input support program (FISP )& linkages to Out growers and Financial Institutions. However, the community face a number of agricultural marketing constraints which including; inadequate market information, Limited value adding/agro-processing industries. Price volatility for most perishable crops,Inadequate and poor agricultural marketing infrastructure, Poor feeder and access roads, low agricultural trade, supply side constraints, low entrepreneurship skills, un-coordinated marketing leading to a buyer‟s market,Inadequate access to agricultural finance since there are no new registrations on FISP as the same farmers get support over and over again. Availability of service including key indicators of performance Below is the list of issues arising from the public participation process and the major challenges faced by the communities. Table 15: Showing Issues Arising from Public Participation Process NAME OF THE SECTOR ISSUES  Inadequate supply of farming inputs  Lack of markets to sell farm produce. AGRICULTURE  High rate of diseases in livestock  Inadequate irrigation dams  Limited sources of capital for small business entrepreneurs  Food insecurity at house hood level  Inadequate FRA sheds for storage  Inconsistency in fertilizer distribution  Inadequate farming inputs  Inadequate programs that promote environmental conservations Dept. of Agriculture: Lundazi, 2020

2.5.3.4 Impact of Changes Anticipated Over the Next Ten Years The country‟s goal as stated in the Seventh National Development Plan is to increase and diversify agricultural productivity so as to raise the share of its contribution to 20 percent of GDP so as to achieve the vision of an efficient, competitive, sustainable and export-led agricultural sector that assures food security and increased income by 2030.The overall objective for the agricultural sector, as set out in the National Agricultural Policy (NAP), is “to facilitate and support the development of a sustainable and competitive agricultural sector in order to ensure food security and income generation at household and national levels and maximize the sector‟s contribution to gross domestic product (GDP).” 53 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 This increased growth in production has had a toll on the level and quality of agricultural services to the farming community in the IDP area and Growth in demand for agricultural services is expected to bear heavily on other sectors. Table 16:Impact of Increase in demand for Agricultural Services and Facilities on Other Sectors Sector Impact Natural  Environmental degradation from increased agricultural services and Environment facilities  Increased investment in solid waste management and general environmental management Land use  Demand for land to be reserved for agricultural infrastructure  Re-location of unplanned settlements and developments to pave way for new infrastructure and land for agriculture  Land degradation and general environmental decay *Infrastructure  Demand for infrastructure (e.g. transport, water and sanitation, electricity and telecommunications)  Demand for auxiliary services and infrastructure such as social amenities and activities (markets, health, community services and recreation)  Location of auxiliary infrastructural services  Capital investment in the provision of auxiliary infrastructure Housing  Increased demand for housing development  Cost of housing infrastructure Institutional  Increased demand for Monitoring and Evaluation capacities of local agricultural and development institutions Economic  Market for goods and services  Labour demand and supply

2.5.3.5 Existing and Proposed Investment and Development Programs There is potential to increase maize production and productivity considering the suitable weather conditions. This would motivate an increase in maize farming in the planning area. The IDP area also has Soils and climatic conditions which support commercial soya beans production and other crops. The productions of these crops can lead to potential productions and processing of a variety of products such as livestock feed. The IDP area has good soil and many water bodies which support the production of vegetables and tropical fruits. Vegetables and fruits can be produced commercially all year round under irrigation and can be exported outside the planning area. The IDP area has furthermore identified Agricultural mechanization has one of the components that can successfully drive the agriculture sector. Increased productivity requires modernization of agriculture but it includes: planting, crop protection, irrigation, harvesting, processing, manufacturing. Modern technologies are critical in supporting production, as well as in value addition. Included here is labor saving equipment like maize shearers, threshers, sun-flower and groundnut oil pressers. 54 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.5.3.6 The Impact of the Continuation of Existing Trends on Land Use and Population Distribution Patterns The impact of existing trends on the environment and climate change The planning area falls under agro ecological zone II with annual rainfall ranging from 800- 1000mm. Agriculture sector has negative and positive impacts on the environment; the most prominent negative impact has been the conversion of forests and grasslands for agricultural use. This result in a high deforested area and have an overall impact on the rainfall pattern. In the process of clearing land for farming, huge track of forests are cut and burnt resulting in death of micro biota and macro biota (small and large organisms). Most of the organisms denatured are those that are found in the decomposition biomass and nitrogen fixing in the soil (eg bacteria) The most common types of crops grown in the planning area are maize, soya beans, groundnuts, field beans, sunflower, sweet potatoes and sorghum. The total area cultivated for these crops has over the years varied. The total area cultivated during the 2015/2016 farming season was 168,702Ha, 2016/2017 was 190787.79Ha, 2017/2018 was 182,736, 2018/2019 was 151, 115 and 2019/2020 was 173,256.5 respectively. Area cultivated in Ha in the IDP Area 250000 200000 150000 100000 Area cultivated in Ha 50000 0 Figure 15: Showing farming trends in the last farming seasons in the IDP Area (source: Ministry of Agriculture – Lundazi) The above chart shows the total area cultivated in the period between 2015-2020 farming seasons. From the chart, the largest area cultivated was during the 2016/2017 farming season and the lowest was during the 2018/2019 farming season. This shows that in 2016/17 a large area was cleared for cultivation and this seems to be the trend in the three districts as land is 55 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 continuously cleared each farming season to expand farmland as well as to open new farming areas In the planning areas, most farmers do not practice crop rotation as a way of fertility retention but prefer to practice shifting cultivation when a piece of land has been deemed infertile infertility due to continued usage over the years, leaving the said piece land bear and inactive. The picture on the left serves as an example of Kazembe Area where the locals have encroached the Lundazi National Forest in practice of shifting cultivation. This practice not only disturbs the local biome but can cause the land to become susceptible to erosion, land degradation, landslides due to loose soils as soils are displaced by tree cutting and floods. The planning area on average receive normal to above normal rainfall (800mm to 1100mm) and this has resulted in low crop yields for crops such as maize and soya beans especially in the valley areas due to flooding. Climate variability undermines attempts to reduce poverty and food insecurity, since most of population in the area consists of rural small-scale farmers who rely on rain fed agriculture for income. In Lumezi alone, there are about 32,624 small scale farmers who cultivate less than five hectors of land. There is a high demand for land as it is estimated that more 181,220 hectors of land is needed annually for agriculture purposes. Deforestation has continued to mount pressure on the environment due to high demand for land for agriculture. On the other hand tobacco farmers who are more than 400 cultivate over 2000 hectors of land, this has brought about more pressure on the environment due to high demand for wood fuel which is used in curing of tobacco. This has resulted into high levels of deforestation in the area. For instance, floods and droughts in Lumezi have increased in frequency in the last five farming seasons.

2.5.3.7 The Impact of Environmental and Climate Change Issues on the Sector In some parts of the planning area such as Lumezi more than 524 households were affected by floods during the 2018-19 farming seasons destroying more 553.2 hectors of fields, impacting more than 2,663 people in the valley parts covering all the three valley chiefdoms - Mwanya, Chitungulu and Kazembe. (Lundazi: DMMU Committee, 2020.) 56 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 If the current agricultural trends continue, the IDP area is likely to continue experiencing fluctuations in rainfall patterns, intermittent droughts which result in food insecurity and high poverty levels. In the quest to minimize the impact of climate change, the Ministry of Agriculture and its partners have put in place measures to ensure that farmers do not continue with these environmentally degrading farming practices which measures include sensitization programs and planting of tree species such as Gliricidia Sepium for nitrogen fixing purposes and regeneration. The loss of natural soil fertility which is as a result of continued fertilizer use is causing some acidity in soils which has resulted in low crop yields. This has affected the area as poverty levels have increased. The use of fertilizers and pesticides also results in soil, land, water and air pollution. Ministry of agriculture and organizations operating in the IDP area such as COMACO are encouraging farmers to engage in climate smart agriculture (CSA) which calls for conservation farming practices as opposed to the traditional methods of farming. Conservation farming discourages the making of ridges because it degrades the soil and leads to soil erosion. The other farming practice encouraged is crop rotation. Livestock production is also largely dependent on rainfall in the planning area as availability of good pastures is dependent on rainfall. The rising frequency of drought and shorter rainy seasons as well as high temperatures may also degrade grazing land and lead to loss of livestock, with negative consequences for food security, loss of income and loss of livestock.

2.5.4 Gender Analysis Ownership, access and control over resources between women and men provide insight into modern gender issues. In the planning area, this is especially related to access to land (For agriculture and other purposes), financial services, farming inputs as well as decision making at household level. During the sensitization and consultative meetings held in all nine wards of the district, women and men had to be separated into groups to allow full participation especially for women who are believed should not have a say in development issues. This allowed for equal inputs on what is lacking in their areas. The belief that the men are responsible for contributions to development is an indicator for their decision making power at household level. During data collection, it was clearly indicated that the implementers in the IDP area has made strides to reduce the gender disparity in allocation of land by implementing a 50/50 policy where the number of women and men allocated land at a given time should be equal in order to encourage gender equality. On the other end, women are generally disadvantaged in terms of access to farming inputs, livestock, and water for household use and irrigation. This is significant challenge for women and the old in the rural most areas of the district as men and the young move to urban areas and women and the old are often left behind to manage agricultural activities.

3.5.5 Summary for the Sector In line with the strategic vision of government as well as the demands from the clients and environmental challenges, the Agriculture sector has aims to facilitate and support the development of a sustainable and viable agriculture sector in order to ensure food security and 57 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 income generation at house hold and national level and maximize the sector‟s contribution to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and also promote sustainable agricultural production and productivity in order to ensure food and nutrition security, income generation, creation of employment opportunities and reduction in poverty levels.

3.5.6 Consideration of the Underlying Factors Contributing to Issues Identified The agriculture sector strives to effectively promote the development of sustainable domestic and foreign markets for agriculture commodities to enhance access to markets and generation of income and promote appropriate agricultural activities and agro – based industries. In rural communities in order to create employment opportunities and contribute to the alleviation of poverty the sector is promoting agricultural production, productivity and efficient management of agricultural produce and products in order to ensure sustainable household and national food security. The sector furthermore seeks to promote the use of appropriate farming practices in order to improve and sustain the agriculture base and develop appropriate legislation, policies, programs and coordinate and monitor their implementation in order to guide the development of the agricultural sector and improve its performance. The sector has also put into consideration the promotion of appropriate information, knowledge and skills on the agricultural sector to farmers in order to create awareness on the current agricultural development and improve productivity and ensure gender equity in resource allocation and access to agricultural services; and effectively manage the utilization of human, financial and material resources.

3.5.7 Impact of COVID-19 on the Agricultural Sector The Global concern of COVID-19 has impacted negatively on the sector as their as been a reduction in resource allocation as much of resources have been allocated to the health sector to deal with the COVID 19 emergencies. Furthermore, the pandemic has also created a great toll on the labor force has there has been Reduced production and productivity due quarantine episodes. 58 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.6 Fisheries and Livestock

2.6.1 Overview The mandate of the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock is anchored on the Government Gazette Notice No. 183 of 2012. It facilitates and supports the development of sustainable, diversified and competitive fisheries and livestock sectors that assure food and nutrition security, contribute to job creation and maximize profits and the sectors‟ contribution to Gross Domestic Product. Livestock play a very important role in the rural economy of the IDP area. Species of livestock kept are goats, sheep, pigs, poultry and rabbits. They also make a significant contribution to domestic income and household food security. However, a distinction can be made between “Livestock farmers” and “Livestock keepers”. Most of the farmers in the area fall in the latter category. Whereas livestock farmers rear livestock for economic gain, livestock keepers rear for prestige. To livestock keeper‟s quality and economic returns are not important. It is the role of the Ministry of Agriculture and Co-operatives to convert livestock keepers to livestock farmers through extension. In Lundazi district the majority of livestock – owning households are keepers of livestock and there are very few livestock producers or “real livestock farmers”. Aquaculture refers to production of fish at small scale level in earthen ponds ranging from 100- 200mm2. This is aimed at producing fish for household consumption, using locally available resources at a minimum cost with possible benefit of an additional cash income from fresh fish sales. The rearing system is where fish growth is at times totally dependent on the natural food population within the pond ecosystem. The type of production under the District Fisheries and Livestock is the production of quality seed (fingerlings brood stock Management). Secondly, in rural enterprises there are few specialized fingerling producers as this service is currently offered by Government at Lundazi fish seed production Centre which at the moment requires serious rehabilitation, the ponds have high sea page. On the other hand farmers do not have any donor support at the moment, they only receive technical assistant from fisheries officers at the district who are also under staffed.

2.6.2.1 Description of the existing state of development Availability of service Fisheries The district has over 20 dams that are currently stocked with fish. At each dam, the department formed dam co-management committees that are responsible for day to day fisheries conservation activities. The challenges that these committees face include lack of support from the donor community, lack of operation equipment such as boats to use during operations especially during the annual fishing closure and lack of sufficient trainings due to inadequate resources from for the department. The above challenges have worsened this season due to poor water levels given erratic rain full received last season. Capture Production The system even though quite productive, lacks several things, among them:- i. Fishermen /Women lack adequate training in latest technologies in improved fishing craft. 60 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 ii. Fishing gear and designs for different fishing areas. iii. Monitoring of the fishing activities is not adequately done due to dependence on Central Government, just to mention a few. iv. Fishermen lack financial support from donors/ NGOs. The production from natural fisheries is quite small because it is under exploited due to inadequate fishing facilities by fishermen. Fish is caught mainly for the pot. Number of fish farmers per block and number of ponds. There are few ponds in the district with the following are the species of fish found in these ponds:  Oreochromis Niloticus (Nile Tilapia)  Tilapia Rendalii (Red breast Tilapia) .

2.6.3.3 Quality of service including key indicators of performance Table 22: Quality of service including key indicators of performance Service Quality of service Issues arising from public participation Livestock Service Centre poor The community members in the IDP area expressed concern on the fact that most of the service centres do not have the adequate infrastructure or personnel to attend to their livestock Dip Tanks poor Inadequacy of dip tanks leads to most of the livestock dying from disease Farmer Extension services poor Inadequate farmer extension services Market poor Absence of organized marketing system for livestock and fish Poor state of feeder roads for transportation to organized markets Ponds Poor Most of the ponds in the IDP area have dried out making it difficult to do fish farming as well as non- availability of water for livestock.

2.6.3.4 Impact of Changes Anticipated over the Next Ten Years The change in population has had an effect on livestock and fish production as well as supply. Due to the increased population in the IDP area, most of the land is used for cultivation as it is the cheaper form of farming for the local people. However, the increase in the population in the area has also led to higher demand on the products of the sector. The rapidly increasing demand for the sector‟s products pushes against a traditional resource base for livestock and fish production that cannot expand at the same pace. This is also due to the fact the local livestock and fish farmers use traditional feeds which produce a lower yield than modern feeds. The increase in the population depicts the need for increase or rehabilitation in the fisheries and livestock services and facilities available in the area. Production can only be increased or promoted by making the necessary facilities and services available, this means an increase in research as well as technology.

2.6.3.5 Existing and proposed investment and development programme The Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock working together with dam co-management committees in the planning area is spearheading and promoting introduction of cage culture at all dams. This is in addition to provision of technical support to fisheries dam committees using the proposed fisheries groups. Fisheries offer great potential for diversification, gainful employment and poverty reduction. Fish is a critical source of high quality animal protein and provides livelihoods for populations that live around natural water bodies. The fisheries sub-sector also provides business opportunities in aquaculture and related industries in the value chain. The fisheries sub-sector in the planning area is, however underdeveloped contributing less than 1 percent to local economy implying the sector‟s focus on the following aspects.  Potential for livestock production 65 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030  Establishment of livestock market centre and service centers  Introduction of Artificial Insemination (A.I.) services.  Re-establish breeding centre for livestock

2.7.3 Description of the existing state of development

2.7.3.1 Availability of service The population for the planning area in 2020 is estimated to be 442,300 of which the urban and peri- urban population is estimated at 45,840. Therefore, the total number of people living in the rural parts of the planning area is estimated to be 396,480 needing rural water and sanitation services. The national rural water supply and sanitation program stipulates that one (1) standard community water supply facility should serve 250 community members or 50 households within a radius of 500m if water as an essential community is to be made accessible to all. In addition, 69 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 the planning area has 31 dam structures were seventeen (17) of these are able to hold water but still require engineering attention if they are to be used for irrigation purposes. The Planning area is serviced by Eastern Water and Sewerage Company. Eastern Water and Sewerage Company (EWSC) exists to provide improved supply of clean drinking water and sanitation services in the urban and peri-urban centers of Eastern Province. This second part presents the basic facts and figures related to the water sanitation, supply and development present situation, trends and dynamics in order to identify impacts on their sectors.

Therefore, the total number of people living in the rural parts of the planning area is estimated to be 396,480 needing rural water and sanitation services. The national rural water supply and sanitation program stipulates that one (1) standard community water supply facility should serve 250 community members or 50 households within a radius of 500m if water as an essential community is to be made accessible to all.

2.7.3.3 Availability of Water Supply Facilities in the Planning Area Table 27: Shows Availability of Water Supply Facilities in the Planning Area Name of Total Population Standard Existing number of Deficiency Percentage Planning Area in the rural parts (number of water points by Deficiency of the Planning Boreholes) condition Area/Required safe and clean Good Poor Total New Overall Overall number of Water Supply facilities Functionality Water Supply Points Facilities IDP area 396,480/1,586 1 Facility for 777 407 1,184 402 809 51% (Comprising every 250 Lundazi, people Lumezi and Chasefu) (Source: Lundazi DWASH, 2019) The table above indicates that of the total rural population needing rural water supply services, only about 49% have access to safe and clean water supply leaving 51% with no access. This translates into high morbidity rates in the planning area arising from consumption of unclean and unsafe water manifesting in high numbers of diarrhoea and other water borne related infections.

2.7.4 Issues Arising from the public participation process

2.7.4.1 Availability of service There is need for provision of water facilities and trainings/orientations of APMs/V-WASHE committees. Access to clean water at both household level and community level remain elusive to many people in the IDP area and the demand for borehole water services remains high. Drilling/Defunct or malfunctioning boreholes will require repair and restocking of spare parts. Below is a table showing the current status and areas the district is lacking (shortfalls) in terms of water point functionality:

2.7.4.2 Quality of Service Including Key Indicators of Performance Generally, the issues highlighted through the public participation were long distances to water points (Access to water supply), breakdown of boreholes and Disease outbreak due to lack of 72 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 clean water (water quality). Furthermore, hand washing facilities are in high demand but cannot be easily accessed due to short supply. There is need for provision water facilities and trainings/orientations of APMs/V-WASHE committee Latrine design & construction and community contributions, washrooms design and construction) can never be over emphasized as it remains core to improved household living conditions. There is urgent need in the planning area to address various sustainable latrine designs (sanitation marketing) that can be adopted and re-designed to fit our model of culture and environment. Additionally, more Community Champions have to be motivated and trained for effective triggering, monitoring and reporting. Adoption of better hygiene practices such as Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and School Led Total Sanitation (SLTS) should continue to part of WASH programs in the planning area.

2.7.5 Impact of changes anticipated over the next ten years

2.7.5.1 Impact of Increase in Water Supply and Sanitation Services and Facilities on Other Sectors As the population in the IDP area grows the demand for water mounts and pressure on water resources intensifies. Population growth particularly will limit the amount of water available per person. Furthermore, the projected population growth might have a great toll on the other sectors because as population grows the demand for water supply increases. Other impacts include Rapid deterioration and degradation of the water quality in the water bodies

2.7.6 Existing and proposed investment and development programs The planning area has a number of water resources and wetlands which includes five big rivers such as the Lundazi, Lumezi, Lusangazi, Lukusuzi, and the Rukuzye River. The area also has the Luangwa River which flows along the Valley and forms the boundary with Mpika district in Muchinga Province. Further, the area is well primed for investment as it has a lot of water bodies namely Tigone, Phikamalaza, Membe, Chapilonga, Kamoni and lake Beu which provides scenic beauty for tourism purposes for both local and international tourists. Further, the area is well primed for investment as it has a lot of surface water bodies (27 dams) doted around the district in the planning area used for various agricultural activities, as storage facilities and domestic water supply to support for irrigation, animals and home consumption respective if there could be no rains in the particular season.

2.7.7 The Impact of the Continuation of Existing Trends on Land Use and Population Distribution Patterns

2.7.7.1 The Impact of Existing Trends on the Environment and Climate Change The demand for clean and safe drinking water is important for public health, domestic use and food production and remains a fundamental human need. This has resulted in to the communities in the IDP area to continue using firewood for boiling water as a form of water purification. The use of fire wood has influenced climate change as many trees are being cut and results into the emission of carbon dioxide. Furthermore, high pollution rates along the water bodies has increased due to high populations of people who use water bodies for their day to day activities. 73 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 The benefits of having access to an improved drinking water source can only be fully realised when there is access to improved sanitation and adherence to good hygiene practices. The sector therefore wishes to provide access to clean and safe drinking water by 2030 as stipulated in the vision 2030.

2.7.7.2 Consideration of the Underlying Factors Contributing to The Issues Identified The water sector reform aims to achieve universal coverage of water supply, development and sanitation in the country. The sector has three major objectives that aim to achieve improved sustainable sanitation services for all in both rural and urban areas, improve or promote sustainable management of water supply services and enhance integrated water resources management approach.

2.7.8 Impact of COVID 19 on water and sanitation The advent of COVID 19 has had both negative and positive impacts on the sector in that the emergence of this global pandemic has reinforced promotion of hand washing practices as the most effective method to curb such vices among others. However, hand washing facilities are on high demand and cannot be easily accessed due to short supply or high cost. Furthermore, in areas where there is inadequate water supply the coming of COVID as worsened the already existing inadequate supply of water facilities.

2.8 Waste Management

2.8.1 Introduction A persistent problem for the municipalities and their surrounding areas is the inadequate collection and unacceptable disposal of their household and commercial waste. The current disposal sites located on totally unsuitable sites from environmental point of view and risks of pollution are very high. The way it is operated at present creates a breeding ground for pests and flies. Burning of the waste creates unacceptable air pollution and a serious visual disturbance. Collection services by the municipalities are very limited and are done mainly for the CBD.

2.8.2 Population Waste Generation and Disposal The planning area has experienced a considerably higher growth rate over the past 10 years. This is ascribed mainly by increase of urban population. The urban population has increased as most people in the newly created district are still accommodated in Lundazi. Lundazi district was split into three, namely; Lundazi, Chasefu and Lumezi. The municipality has no records available of actual waste generated and due to the fact that only a small portion of the town has been serviced in the past, and no actual figures exist, it was decided to use theoretical generation figures as the only sensible alternative. The figures used were obtained from our experience in similar instances. 74 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.8.3 Waste Collection The town centre is kept fairly clean with a service being rendered on a daily basis. Due to a lack of containers/receptacles, waste is placed at designated areas to be collected by the Council who load their vehicles with TLB. It is evident from the above that there is a lack of waste receptacles and that only the town centre is serviced by the councils. The councils are currently addressing the backlog as far as dumping on open spaces in the residential areas is concerned.

2.8.4 Collection Equipment Table 28: Shows Collection Equipment owned by Lundazi Town Council S/No. Type of equipment Number Condition Comments 1 Tipper truck 1 Good and working Old and need replacement 2 Canter 1 Good and working Old and need replacement 3 TLB 1 Good and working new 4 Tipper Tractor 1 Good and working new

2.8.5 Refuse bay The planning area has two refuse bays currently which are located in the commercial areas.

2.8.6 Municipal Dumpsite The district has one Municipal dumpsite which is located along Chitungulu road. The status of this site is that it was recently acquired and all documents in relation to Title deeds and approved environmental brief have been secured. 75 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.9 Forestry The IDP area has 126,869 Ha of forest reserves which include 2 national forests namely Lundazi and Muchenje, 5 local forests and 10 community forests. Some of these forest reserves are still intact with vegetation cover which includes Kaluwe local forest and on the other hand the Chimaliro, Lundazi and Njovu forests have been heavily encroached by human settlements. The status of these forests range from 20% to 70% intact. The rest of the land in the IDP area falls under customary land tenure system for traditional authorities have control in terms of allocation and land use. The IDP area has ear-marked 10ha of land for plantation of eucariptus and gliricedia ascepium near Ng‟onga.

2.9.1 Gazetted Forest The IDP area has seven (7) gazetted forests of which two (2) are National Forests and five (5) are Local Forests. This covers a total area of 126, 869 Ha as tabulated in the table below;

2.9.2 Ungazetted Forest These are forests which are in open areas and fall under customary land and the Local Authority called Trust and State Land (Trust land - Under Chiefs, State Land – under the Council). These cover the area of 1,278,931 hectares in the IDP area.

2.9.3 Plantation: The planning area has one established plantation inside Kaluwe Local Forest with a total area of 90 hectares for plantation expansion. From the 90 hectares, only 15 hectares is currently stocked with Eucalyptus species. The Plantation is opposite Ng‟onga National Service Camp and is approximately 35 km from Lundazi Town. The name of the plantation is called Kaluwe and there are two old departmental houses and one office block housing two office spaces. These structures are in a deplorable condition and currently the office block is out of use. However, the two houses are occupied by two General Workers stationed at the plantation. The threats on forests in the planning area range from deforestation, unsustainable charcoal production, unsustainable farming practices, illegal timber harvesting, poaching, and encroachment in the protected areas. Government expectations are to enhance efforts in coordinating sustainable environmental management programmes in mitigating the environmental challenges. 76 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 16: Map showing natural resources in the planning area The map above shows that the planning area is richly endowed with a range of natural resources which include national parks, forest reserves, dams, rivers and streams, lakes, wetlands and minerals. The planning area has two (2) national forests namely Lundazi and Machinje Hills National Forests. In addition, the area has five (5) Local Forests, two (2) of which are situated in Lumezi constituency and the rest in Lundazi constituency. The Lundazi National Forest is the largest of all covering 84,840 ha of land spanning between Lumezi and Chasefu constituencies. 77 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Table 29: Showing Gazetted forests in the planning area S/NO.

These tree species are found from both gazzeted and non gazzeted forest estates.

2.9.4 Forest Depletion Rate Under Integrated Land Use Assessment (ILUA) II program which was conducted in 2014, the planning area was also covered with biophysical and socio-economic data collected and analyzed in Lusaka at Forestry Department HQ. The substantial biophysical and socio-economic data 78 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 related to forests and land use was collected through the Integrated Land Use Assessment (ILUA ii, 2010- 2015) in the planning area. The overall objective of ILUA II was to “strengthen forest resources management and enhancing its contribution to sustainable development, land use and livelihoods” in the planning area. This was the second comprehensive assessment conducted in the planning area; the first was in 2005-2008 which generated baseline data for ILUA II. ILUA II was designed to use and develop the data (ILUA I data) for sustainable forest management (SFM), reduction of emissions from deforestation and degradation (REDD+) and give additional information on trends on forest cover change through enhanced and refined methodologies. The ILUA II revealed cardinal biophysical and socio-economic findings from the assessments done between 2008 and 2015 that included: forest cover for the whole planning area, carbon from standing trees, species abundance, regeneration, biomass in standing trees, growing stock, forests and livelihood, and deforestation. Consequently, ILUA II data is of high quality and very reliable hence suitable to be utilized as a bench mark for future assessments and planning. Furthermore, to better understand the drivers of deforestation and to inform policy interventions that support sustainable forest management, ILUA II addressed socio-economic related information needs through the forest livelihoods and economic survey (FLES). However, the increasing population and growing demand for forest goods and services as well as demand for agriculture and settlement land will continue to put more pressure on forests therefore, the formulation of forest management plans from ILUA II data will be fundamental to sustainable forest management at the district level which will eventually lead to effective management of forests in the planning area. Forest cover loss and deforestation rate Over the last 14 years, the total national forest cover changed from 47,054,148 hectares in 2000 to 45,943,316 hectares in 2014, indicating a decrease of 1,110,832 hectares or 2.4% (Table 50; Fig 45). Of the total forest loss, 32.2% occurred in the last 4 years (2010-2014) compared to 67.3% in 10 years (2000-2010). Forest loss varied across provinces, with the highest rate of forest loss recorded in Central (38%) and North-western (25%), while the lowest rate of forest loss occurred in Lusaka (1%) and Eastern (1%). Forest cover in all the provinces decreased in varying proportions except for Eastern province which recorded an increase in the 2010-2014 interval (Table 50). Overall, forest cover loss was higher in the 2010 – 2015 interval than in the 2000 to 2010 interval. In the same period, the area under grassland decreased sharply from 2000 to 2010. Generally, deforestation has continued to mount pressure on the environment due to high demand for land for agriculture. On the other hand tobacco farmers who are more than 400 cultivate over 2000 hectors of land, this has brought about more pressure on the environment due to high demand for wood fuel which is used in curing of tobacco. This has resulted into high levels of deforestation in the IDP area. For instance, floods and droughts in Lumezi have increased in frequency in the last five farming seasons. 79 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Table 30: Showing Ungazetted forest in the planning area S/NO.

In 2010, the area had 107 kha of tree cover extending over 7.7% of its land area. In 2019, it lost 368 ha of tree cover, equivalent to 70.4 kt of carbon emission. From 2001 to 2019, the planning area lost 14.3kha of tree cover equivalent to 10% decrease in tree cover which is far much high than the provincial tree cover loss (5.8%) since 2000 and 2.82mt of carbon emission.

2.10 Tourism

2.10.1 National Parks and Wildlife (Tourist Attraction Sites) in the Planning Area In terms of wildlife, the planning area is home to two (2) national parks namely Lukusuzi and Luambe National Parks both situated in Lumezi constituency. The parks are moderately stocked with a range of wild animals among which are small, medium and big game including the big four (4) cats.

2.10.2 Lukusuzi National Park

2.10.2.1 Location and Size The park lies between 12°27'17.1" S, 032°33‟38.5”E and 13°5'24.2" S and 032°30'12.9" E. The park is close to three National Parks namely; Luambe National Park, South Luangwa National Park and Kasungu National Park in Malawi. Park is approximately 2,720 Km² in size and is located in Lumezi District.

The GMAs also host a range of wild animals which include small, medium and big game and these are mostly found near big rivers of Lundazi, Lumimba and Lukusuzi. All the four GMAs are located in Lumezi and Chasefu constituencies. With a wide range of animals in these GMAs and National Parks, they have come under threat in recent years due to growing population in these areas which has resulted in constant animal- human conflicts in settlements located near and within national parks and GMAs respectively.

The area comprises of both the plateau and the valley. The district has five big rivers which flow across it, from the plateau to the valley. The rivers include: Lundazi, Lumezi, Lusangazi, Lukusuzi, and the Rukuzye while the Luangwa flows along the Valley and forms the boundary with Mpika district in Muchinga Province. The most profound and culturally identified area is Lake Beu in Chasefu which provides scenic beauty for tourism purposes for both local and international tourists. Further, the area is well primed for investment as it has a lot of water bodies namely Tigone, Phikamalaza, Membe, Chapilonga, Kamoni etc for irrigation, animals and home consumption if there could be no rains in the particular season. 88 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030

2.11 Electricity and Communication Infrastructure This section of describes the electricity supply component in the planning area as well as the distribution of communication infrastructure available to the population. The planning has a single government owned post station and randomly distributed communication towers and electricity line distributed partly in the planning area.

2.11.1 Description of Existing State of Development 2.11.1. 1 Electricity Infrastructure Zambia Electricity Supply Corporation (ZESCO) Limited is the major supplier of electricity in Zambia. The major sources of power are; Kafue Gorge, Kariba North Bank Hydro and Victoria Falls Hydro power stations. Others include the Independent Power Producers (IPDs) producing and supplying power to ZESCO for distribution to consumers. The power utilized in the planning area is tapped power from Malawi which is connected to Raiply 132/33KV substation. The 33KV line passes through Lundazi 33/11kv substation which terminates Chasefu and Lumezi districts. A total of 4,300 customers are connected to the power grid of which 4200 are on prepaid meters and 100 are on maximum demand customers. This represents roughly 6% connectivity to the grid of the total number of households in the planning area. This implies a need for expansion of the electricity network to cover the underserved and unserved rural population within the planning area. Investment in electricity generation, transmission, and supply in the planning area will promote establishment of primary industries as well as the development of agricultural high value chains to support the local economies within the planning area. The construction of 132KV transmission line from Chipata west substation through Mwasemphangwe, Lundazi, and Egichikeni to Chama district in Muchinga province is nearing completion along with the establishment of 132/33/KV substations at Mwasemphangwe, Lundazi and Egichikeni. The 33KV distribution line that stretches over a total distance of 65km is to evacuate power from the substations, as well as supply power to 15 growth centres comprising of health posts, school and chief‟s palaces. The planning area has two 33KV distribution line supplying Chasefu and Lumezi. Part of Lundazi is supplied on 33KV and 11KV respectively namely:  Emusa feeder at 33KV from Lundazi , 50km long to supply the following areas Ellihangeni area, Phikamalaza area, Chiginya area, ZASP area, Hoya area, Champheta community school, Kauwo primary, Kanyanga mission hospital, Emusa market, Emusa secondary school and Emusa FRA..  Lumezi feeder at 33KV from Lundazi, 43km long to supply the following area Chimyutulu, Msuzi, Kakumba, Sikatangwa and Lumezi area.  Mwase feeder at 33KV from Lundazi, 26km supply the areas like Mwase, Kamunyunga, Kapichila and Kapili.  We have two feeders on 11KV hospital and water works supplying Lundazi boma. 89 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 The amount of power being supplied into the planning area is adequate to cater for the current demand. The level of supply could still cater for the demand that would be anticipated with the proposed extended boundary. Investment into infrastructure development such as extension of distribution lines and establishment of substations will be required to improve on the coverage of the populations living in the planning area.

2.11.1.2 Communication Infrastructure In terms of communication facilities, the planning area is serviced by three mobile service providers providing both data and voice services to the customers in the three districts constituencies of the planning area. A total of 21 communication masts hosting communication equipment for Airtel, MTN and Zamtel are located in various parts of the planning area. Eight (8) of these masts are located in Lumezi, seven (7) in Lundazi and six (6) are in Chasefu. Although nearly all parts of the planning area are serviced by at least one of the three network providers, accessibility is difficult in some parts of valley area bringing to light the need to expand the service to all parts of the planning area. Although all the chief‟s palaces in the planning area are connected, some parts of the planning area are not reachable due in part to difficult terrain and long distances between towers. The government through the Zambia Information Communication Technology Authority (ZICTA) has embarked on a communication infrastructure installation in unserved areas that will see the connection of isolated far flung areas to other parts of the country through tower to tower connectivity. The aim of these interventions among others is to facilitate quick and reliable flow and exchange of information between communities, small and medium business and between the state organs and the rural communities which will result in rapid socio-economic and infrastructure development and ultimately an improvement in the standard of living of people in rural parts of planning area. 90 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 Figure 22: Shows the distribution of communication and electricity infrastructure in the IDP Area Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 91

2.12 CROSS CUTTING ISSUES

2.12.1 General Overview of HIV Zambia‟s development agenda is pinned on the Vision 2030 supported by other global and national and local programs and plans and strategies, Zambia's first ever written long-term plan, expresses the aspirations of the Zambian people to be accomplished by the year 2030. It articulates the appropriate national and sector goals to meet people‟s aspirations. The Vision outlines the desirable long-term paths of the socio-economic indicators to satisfy the people‟s aspirations, and articulates possible long-term alternative development policy scenarios at different points through the target year 2030. It will, therefore, be the basis for interface by all sectors and will provide direction for short- and medium-term plans Zambia has one of the highest HIV prevalence rates in Sub-Saharan Africa. Although the adult HIV prevalence rate has declined by 19% in 2003 to 11.2 % in 20145, Zambia‟s HIV prevalence rate is seventh rate globally6. The epidemic has spread rapidly across all sectors of society and threatens to reverse the socioeconomic gains made over the years since independence. The government of the Republic of Zambia together with its national and international collaborating partners has committed themselves to work together towards universal access prevention, treatment, care and support services for all. The commitment by government is further enshrined in the country‟s long- term Vision 2030 that aims to have a “nation free from the threat of HIV and AIDS by 2030”. Lundazi Town Council is committed to gender parity, emancipation women and protection of human rights in the District. Human Development is vital as a means for economic growth at all levels. Unfortunately, there are some developmental gaps in Lundazi which include high poverty levels, especially among women and other vulnerable groups, and HIV/AIDS, which is Zambia‟s most critical developmental and humanitarian crisis today. Some efforts have been put up to promote sustainable human development in Lundazi, but the lack of education among women and traditional assumptions that women cannot be decision makers among others constrain the development efforts towards improving the status-quo of women in the district. In Lundazi, like in many parts of the country, men enjoy unequal and dormant relationships with their female counterparts in most relationships. Women and girls for example are generally expected to be submissive to men and boys respectively. At household level, increased poverty has led to an increase in illicit sex, which has in turn heightened new HIV infections, especially among the productive age group of 15–45 years. The current HIV/AIDS rate in Lundazi is 8.2% (DHO, 2018). This state of affairs poses a serious threat to socio-economic development prospects of the district.

2.12.1.2 Key Policies, Plans and Strategies Since the creation of the National AIDS Council (NAC) in 2002, Zambia has consistently prepared five-year National AIDS Strategic Frameworks. The National HIV/AIDS strategic plan 2017-2021 has focused primarily on intensifying combination HIV prevention in the national multi-sectoral HIV response with a view of reducing new HIV infections. The plan recognizes the HIV/AIDS epidemic as a socio developmental challenge and hence incorporates emerging issues in the epidemic and the application of the fast track strategies to achieve the 90-90-90 targets by the end of the plan period and the ultimate ending of HIV infections by 2030.

2.11.1.3 Key Elements of the Existing Policies, Plans and Strategies The policies, strategies and plans that guide the implementation of the multi-sectoral response to HIV among other tools that have been deployed in the past and currently been include the following: Table 31: Shows the key Policies, Plans and Strategies PLANS, POLICIES KEY ELEMENT SN AND STRATEGY 1.

The frequency and intensity of climate events is expected to rise in future, with negative impact on the economy and consequently people‟s livelihoods. It is estimated that the impact of climate change will cost Zambia approximately 0.4 percent of annual economic growth. It is further estimated that without action, rainfall variability alone could lead to losses of 0.9 percent of GDP growth over the next decade, thereby keeping a significant section of Zambia‟s population below the poverty line. In addition, the fall in the country‟s hydro-power generation in the recent period by about 600 MW is mainly attributed to poor rainfall patterns. The lower supply of electricity has hampered growth prospects of Zambia‟s productive sectors of the economy, including agriculture, manufacturing, mining and services. Other adverse effects have led to increased costs of treating climate-related diseases such as malaria and the loss of natural environments, damage to infrastructure and disruption of biodiversity. Climate change mitigation and adaptation measures have been mainstreamed in this Plan; these are expected to promote social wellbeing, including better health, growth of the economy and at the same time reduce environmental risks, such as shortage of water, air pollution and other effects.

2.12.2 Zambia’s Climate Change Policy Framework Zambia launched the long-awaited National Climate Change Policy aimed at stemming the impact of climate change and subsequent reduction of the country‟s annual economic growth due to crop failure and the impact of climate change on energy production on the 3rd of March, 2017. The 94 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 95 National Climate Change Policy is an important policy development that introduces a well- structured and coordinated national strategy to effectively tackle the adverse effects of climate change. The policy is driven by the Ministry of National Development Planning and includes special consideration towards vulnerable groups such as poor rural women, children and the youth in Zambia. At the national level, Zambia subscribes to the climate relevant policies and strategies which include the following:  National Adaptation Plan of Action (NAPA) 2007,  Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) 2015  National Climate Change Response Strategy 2010  Environmental Management Act of 2011  National Policy on Climate Change 2016  Urban and Regional Act No.3 of 2015.

2.12.3 Overview of gender and vulnerable groups in planning area.

2.12.3.1 Issues Arising Relating To Gender Groups and Vulnerable Groups Gender is a cross cutting issue across traditional fields of economic, social, demographic and environment. This section is important as it provide accurate data on the situation of women and men within the planning area. The development and use of gender specific indicators are key to understanding the causes and impacts of gender inequality. Women, children and the old, all fall in the category of vulnerable groups and all affected differently by deficiency in basic services. 2..12.3.2 Gender/Vulnerable Groups and Population Dynamics The distribution of population in the planning area is dependent on the availability of basic needs in the twenty seven wards. Despite increasing urbanization, many people in the planning area live in rural areas. Large rural populations experience increased gender disparities due to  Limited access to basic service and employment opportunities in rural areas  Greater dependency on agricultural production and a high number of women in contributory family worker roles  Higher fertility rate which are linked to pressures on the delivery of basic services such as education and health  An increased time burden on women who tend to be the primary care givers Economic and educational opportunities are often concentrated in urban areas driving high rates of rural to urban migration in some wards of the district. Since rural to urban migration is male dominated in many areas, these opportunities tend to benefit men. Migration also changes the population structure of most of the areas often leading to higher proportions of the elderly and young, and imbalances in the number of women and men living in urban and rural areas. 95 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 96

2.12.3.3 Gender and Education Social norms related to gender, family, work and education imply social expectations of women‟s and girls‟ prioritization of family over professional careers and less provision and uptake of educational opportunities. This is especially relevant for women and girls in the planning area where they also face the risk of accessing poor quality of education. In addition there is limited infrastructure and the distance being covered to access the education facilities are great. According to MoGE, 2019, the total enrolment of 99,353 pupils was recorded. Out of which 48,533 were girls representing 48.9% while the boys were 966 representing 51.1 %. Moreover, the number become smaller along the way, as most of the girl drop out of school due to the following reasons  Burden of time due to care giving and domestic work.  Early marriages  Distances being covered to access the schools This has highly contributed to early marriage and the planning area consist the highest figures of early marriage. Figure 23: Showing prevalence rate of Child Marriages in the IDP compared to Eastern Province

2.12.3.4 Gender Gaps in Work and Employment The trend above has led to gender gaps in work and employment. Women remain in unpaid work and in roles such as contributing family workers and hold a minor share in decision making positions. Furthermore, unpaid household care work continues to be the main responsibility of women. Due to the domestic and reproductive work is socially linked with female gender roles. Lack of proper infrastructure in rural households of the district has a direct link to women‟s unpaid 96 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 97 work. This was noticed during sensitization and consultation meetings in the communities where women would leave after a certain period of time in order to attend to domestic needs of family and household. This reduces women‟s economic and educational opportunities. For example girls in rural areas spend almost half of the time that girls in urban areas do in time dedicate to studying. Many women and men generate incomes through the informal sector either by being self-employed or by working on fields. Agriculture is the major economic driver in most wards and therefore, most of the work done by the women is on the land.

2.12.3.5 Gender and Health Issues The most vulnerable groups relating to health issues are women, children and the old. Delivery of health services in the district is a major concern. Limited resources and access issues can impede the delivery and prevent services from reaching those in need. A survey on the priority needs of women, especially those in rural areas shows that construction, rehabilitation of health facilities took the lead. Additional gender and health concerns for women include accessing adequate care during pregnancy and child birth. Providing healthcare to children and the old as they are most vulnerable to disease and infection is another gender issue because women tend to be the primary caregivers and take the lead in monitoring children and old people‟s health. The limited number of health facilities adds a greater burden on the women, the old and the children as they have to cover long distances to access the nearest health facilities in their areas. This was noticed in all wards of the district. High rates of maternal mortality remain key issue in the district. Most maternal deaths are preventable and a lack of access to services and the capacity of medical practitioners to deal with complications contribute to higher death rates. This is especially prevalent in rural areas of the district where a health post only has one qualified nurse running it. A case study of 2018 shows that a delay in seeking care by pregnant women was the leading factor associated with maternal deaths and complications. The study showed that delayed referrals to higher health facilities is associated with maternal deaths into three categories of „delays‟ as: delay in the decision to seek care, delay in getting to the health facility (which can be attributed to the fact that the facility is not within 5km radius) and delay in the provision of adequate care (limited staff to attend to high number of patients). A case in point is that of staffing level statistics specifically for Lundazi constituency in the IDP Area. The area has 3 medical doctors, 13 clinical officers, 76 nurses, 5 pharmacy technologists, 9 laboratory technicians and 53 daily classified employees catering for approximately 176,920 people in the area. The picture for Chasefu and Lumezi is not different. 97 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 98 Table 32: Showing staffing levels in Health facilities in Lundazi District of the IDP Area NO FACILITY DOCTORS CLINIC NURSES PHARMACY LAB CLASSIFIED OFFICERS STAFF STAFF DAILY EMPLOYEES 1 Lundazi Hospital 3 8 52 4 6 20 2 Lundazi Urban Health Center 0 2 7 1 3 10 3 Mwase Lundazi Health Center 0 3 3 0 0 4 4 Nyangwe Health post 0 0 1 0 0 2 5 Kapichila Health Center 0 0 2 0 0 2 6 Chiwe Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 1 7 Ng/onga Health Center 0 0 1 0 0 2 8 Chijemu Health Post 0 0 2 0 0 1 9 Kamilenje Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 2 10 Mankhaka Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 2 11 Umi Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 2 12 Mkomba Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 1 13 Kakumba Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 1 14 Mchereka Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 2 15 Lukwizizi Health Post 0 0 1 0 0 1 Another contributing factor to maternal mortality is the state of the roads in the IDP area. Most of the roads in the rural areas are not graded making it hard to reach the hospital on time to access better medical attention. Most of the rural areas are at risk of being cut off from the Boma especially during the rainy season as bridges connecting them are washed away.

2.12.3.6 Access to and Control over Resources by Marginalized and Vulnerable Groups Ownership, access and control over resources between women and men provide insight into modern gender issues. In the planning area, this is especially related to access to land (For agriculture and other purposes), financial services, farming inputs as well as decision making at household level. During the sensitization and consultative meetings held in all nine wards of the district, women and men had to be separated into groups to allow full participation especially for women who are believed should not have a say in development issues. This allowed for equal inputs on what is lacking in their areas. The belief that the men are responsible for contributions to development is an indicator for their decision making power at household level. 98 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 99 During data collection, it was clearly indicated that Lundazi district has made strides to reduce the gender disparity in allocation of land by implementing a 50/50 policy where the number of women and men allocated plots at a given time should be equal in order to encourage gender equality. On the other end, women are generally disadvantaged in terms of access to farming inputs, livestock, and water for household use and irrigation. This is significant challenge for women and the old in the rural most areas of the district as men and the young move to urban areas and women and the old are often left behind to manage agricultural activities. The table below shows the statistics of how many men or female headed households are in agriculture, livestock raising and fish farming as at 2010. Table 33: Showing comparison between Male and Female Headed Households engaged in farming activities NO DETAILS AS AT 2010 TOTAL MALE HEADED FEMALE HEADED 1 Agriculture households 57827 46761 11066 2 Livestock raising households 48683 39965 8718 3 Households engaged in Fish Farming 944 818 126 The table above is evidence that the number of male headed households involved in activities exceeds the female headed household by far.

2.12.3.7 Gender/Vulnerable Groups and Access to Water Water is a vital resource for women, men, children and the old. According to WASH poor water, sanitation and hygiene are the main causes of infections like cholera and diarrhea and they continue to be the leading cause of death of children under the age of five in sub-Saharan Africa. The most vulnerable group to lack of access to safe and clean drinking water are children under the age of five. UNICEF has associated Zambia‟s high rate of stunting (40 per cent) is as a result of poor sanitation. In rural schools in the planning area, lack of access to water supply and sanitation facilities negatively affects pupils. Women are also adversely affected by the limited access to water in rural areas as the pressure to collect water for usage and drinking is on them. Through the sensitization and consultative meetings held, most women‟s priority needs were hinged on clean water for household usage and drinking. The present boreholes are not adequate to support the population in the rural wards of the District. Women walk long distances to access the nearest water point and this takes away from their time spent on other productive activities. 99 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 100

2.13 SUMMARY OF CORE PROBLEMS IN THE IDP AREA Figure 24: Summary of core problems in the IDP area The above diagram shows a summary of core issues prevalent in the IDP Area and the cyclical nature of their interrelationships. The core issues in each of the four segments are not stand-alone issues but have a causal-effect relationship to one another. High levels of deforestation and increased effects of climate change have a direct bearing on food security due to reduced agricultural productivity and production. Food insecurity at household level will ultimately result in early pregnancies/marriages and entrenched poverty at household and individual levels. Therefore, in order to comprehensively deal with the resultant impact of these issues in the IDP area, there is need to systematically deal all the core issues singularly and collectively as well as their interrelationships. 100 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 101 PART III DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK 101 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 102 PART THREE:

3.2.1 Planning Principles The following planning principles need to be considered when dealing with spatial development in Lundazi. Preservation of Heritage areas Proposals in the IDP area should recognize and preserve the heritage areas. In Lundazi, heritage areas include; castle hotel, upstairs area, ceremonial areas. Poverty Alleviation and the Satisfaction of Basic Needs The IDP should prioritise measures and means that ensure improvement of living conditions in terms of housing, infrastructure and social service provision, employment and business opportunities for the poor and other disadvantaged groups. HIV/AIDS The increase in social and economic activities has compounded compound the HIV/AIDS incidences and posed a very big challenge to the social services. Therefore there will be need to put in place measures to reduce the spread and mitigate the expected impact of HIV/AIDS. Gender Equality and Equity The integration of gender equality and equity is guided by the national gender policy and the SADC and African gender protocol which recognizes both men and women as equal partners in development. Special Needs Groups The re-planning of Lundazi will take care of the employment challenges which have led into involvement in social vices such as alcohol and drug abuse and prostitution. The IDP has taken cognizance of special need groups such as the youth, physically and mentally challenged, the aged, orphans and vulnerable children. 105 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 106 Environmental Management The development of Lundazi will entail increased socio-economic and industrial activities that will have an impact on the natural environment. These activities will require environmental mitigation measures. Further, environmental impact assessments would be required for major developments. Population The population growth has a direct impact on other sectors. The proposed developments should take into account this population growth to minimize the stress on socio-economic facilities. Urban/Rural Interface The development of Lundazi requires the adoption of the urban peripheral inter relationships. This is a concept where the urban area depends on the rural areas for food supply while providing other requirements to the rural area. Traditional Governance System The planning process should take into consideration of the existing traditional administrative structures so as to create harmony with other administrative processes.

3.2.2 Community Involvement and Public Participation The re-planning of Lundazi entails relocation of the communities and also expansion of new residential areas. Therefore, Community involvement and public participation in the proposed development will be cardinal.

3.2.2.1 Partnership and Private Sector Involvement To ensure sustainable development, there is need to encourage public-private partnerships. This should include participation of various stakeholders in planning, implementation and operation, and maintenance. The proposal should provide for private sector involvement in service provision, construction and maintenance, as well as planning and implementation.

3.2.2.2 Encouraging Local Economic Development Lundazi has great potential for various commercial and industrial economic activities such as agriculture, manufacturing, forestry, and tourism. Therefore, emphasis should be placed on encouraging both informal and formal economic activities.

3.2.2.3 Security of Tenure Security of land and housing should be ensured for sustainable development of Lundazi. The proposal should therefore provide for both local people and other investors.

3.2.2.4 Cultural Sensitivity The proposal should be sensitive to the cultural values and norms existing in the planning area. This requires paying greater attention and concern for cultural aspects and recognizing the role of traditional society and its leaders. There is need to strike a balance between existing cultural values and development needs. 106 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 107

3.3 DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES, PRIORITIES AND DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES

3.3.1 Education Sector The education sector has constantly been highlighted in the part two of this document (Issues Report), as one of the persistent issues in the IDP area. Therefore, this section describes the key development goal, objectives as well as strategies of the sector including key focus areas of improvement, activities, approach and targets to achieve during the planning period.

3.4 SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK

3.4.1 Introduction The Concepts and Strategies for Spatial Development in the joint IDP are dedicated to the spatial planning vision of a sustainable spatial development which reconciles the social and economic requirements to be met by the space with its ecological functions and results in a system which is permanent and regionally balanced and provides for a convergence of living standards in all sub- regions. The Concepts contribute to preserve and strengthen the variety of regions, their cohesion as well as their sustainability; they relate to all types of area, from the predominantly rural areas to urban regions. The figure below shows the lay out of the area, the land use map clearly describes the spatial distribution of the area and its respective uses. The major land uses in the IDP area are build environment that covers much of the spaces in centers and sub-centers, the water bodies and water logged areas, forests and parks, and agricultural lands that cover much of the higher grounds in the region. Figure 25: Shows the land use map in the IDP area The spatial development concepts form the framework for the spatial policy objectives, the specifications in spatial plans as well as for the concrete implementation measures. The Concepts are to become effective by the approaches pursued in practical implementation. This includes the spatial planning instruments such as spatial plans and spatial impact assessment procedures but 132 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 133 also the spatial planning cooperation with sectoral policies with a spatial impact (e.g. the planning of transport or the development of rural areas) and with the local stakeholders. Therefore, the Concepts are chiefly aimed at decision-makers in the field of spatial planning at all level.

3.4.2 Parameters to be considered in the spatial concepts Demographic factors As a consequence of demographic change it is necessary, above all in stagnating and shrinking regions, to focus even more intensively on regional development potentials, modernization, conversion and deconstruction as well as on the management of the building stock in the course of the development of the settlement structures and infrastructures as well as for the provision of public services. At the same time, it is essential to improve the spatial outline conditions for such regions where towns are particularly affected by in- and outmigration from other parts of Province/nation and from abroad. In this connection, it is also necessary to include and observe the challenges and opportunities of migration and integration. Climate change Avoidance and mitigation strategies as well as adaptation measures to the expected climate change must be taken up in spatial planning. The stakeholders of spatial development are increasingly called upon to cooperate in ensuring an integrated development of settlement and traffic areas which results in energy savings and the avoidance of traffic, to take precautionary action to cope with growing natural risks and to make the energy supply more climate-friendly. The conflict between land-use and protection requirements is steadily increasing. Spatial planning must pay greater attention to its task of coordinating and reviewing the various spatially significant plans. Especially the reduction of the use of new land for settlement and traffic purposes remains a core task of sustainable spatial development. Stakeholder participation For an effective public participation, transparency is needed, that means that comprehensive and comprehensible information about projects, their consequences and procedural steps must be provided in due time. The existing instruments of public participation are to be further developed - to the extent appropriate - with the objective of achieving a broad public acceptance of the procedure

3.4.3 Alternative Spatial Development Scenarios

3.4.1.1 Scenario 1: Enhance competitiveness All growth poles and nodes are to be given the opportunity to steadily develop in a competitive and sustainable manner. This requires further impetus to initiate regional growth alliances in order to enhance the locational quality, to improve the regional self-organization and to clearly raise the profile of this planning area as regards their development objectives. The approaches to be pursued include, among other things, the strengthening of the knowledge-based economic sectors (e.g. 133 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 134 information and communications technologies) and the development of additional potentials by large-scale interlinking and cooperative systems. The spatial planning sector is to support the local stakeholders in the elaboration of regional development and competition strategies and to optimize their interaction. Allowance must be made for the diversity of the regions (e.g. less favoured regions-especially valley area, rural regions or border regions) by adopting suitable development approaches. In the framework of these policies, due account has to be taken of the interrelationship of growth, prosperity and the quality of living. The competitiveness will be achieved through the following;  Evolve (develop) growth areas  Ensure infrastructural links and mobility  Strengthen cooperation and the interlinking of areas  Support areas with a special infrastructure need for action Evolve growth areas The JIDP importance are the essential regional economic areas with a high productivity and are facing international competition. The existing development potentials of all sub-regions should be promoted and exploited. In this framework, due account has to be taken of the interests of the regions in the extended zones of influence. It is intended to create synergies through thematic cooperative systems between predominantly urban and predominantly rural areas. It is becoming increasingly evident that regional structures and developments can no longer be explained solely in terms of a geographical location. For these reasons, many problems call for the inclusion of the neighboring regions in the regional analysis. Cooperative systems in cross-border regions are, there-fore, gaining in importance. The spatial development framework is to further support the intensification of the cooperation of the border regions and of other potential cross- border areas. It is necessary here to exploit the potentials of cooperation in the cross-border zones of influence. For this purpose, it is rather useful to further extend the delimitations of those regions with common cooperation objectives and a common identity. Cross-border issues, planning approaches and coordination procedures must increasingly be placed in the focus of attention. Approaches to action o Evolve cooperation of the border regions within the Cross-Border areas and their partner regions across the border o Promote and communicate the internationalization of authorities, associations and undertakings o Exploit the opportunities arising from international migration and social integration o Enhance the presence of the metropolitan regions at European and international level o Strengthen and use the potentials in rural and less favoured areas within the metropolitan regions 134 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 135 Strengthen cooperation and the interlinking of areas The cooperation of regional and local stakeholders is to be strengthened, efficiency enhanced and better use of endogenous potentials. The task is now to continue to promote these positive approaches of networking and cooperation - also on a large-scale basis - while simultaneously optimizing their interaction with each other and with the planning area in such a way that the diverse cooperative systems complement each other. Even outside the planning areas, cities and rural sub-regions with a high economic and innovative capacity considerably contribute already today to the overall economic growth and assume important development and supply functions for their zones of influence. It is planned to strengthen these locations for industry, innovation and technology within the framework of a spatial development strategy. In the process of developing the large-scale interlinking, areas along main and district roads should increasingly come to the fore as areas providing economic potentials. Approaches to action o Strengthen cross-border cooperation with the immediately adjacent neighbouring country, e.g Malawi o support cooperation in functional regions, especially in urban-rural partnerships o Support integrated and cross-sectoral regional development policies o Stronger interlink spatial planning and structural funding, e.g. all sectors to support and fund the implementation of the spatial plans o Take account of the large-scale interlinking of the maritime and coastal areas when updating o Intensify cross-border spatial monitoring Support areas with a special infrastructure need for action A series of rural areas reveal a considerable infrastructure backwardness with a problematic demographic development and an economic capacity which is well below average. This can in many cases be explained by their peripheral location and poor accessibility. These regions are to be stabilized by better activating, using and evolving regional resources and endogenous potential as well as by interlinking them with sub-regions with a higher economic capacity. Existing development cores, especially in central locations, are to be extended to become anchor points. Approaches to action o Support the better use of regional potentials and regional value creation in coordination with regional infrastructure policy and the policy for rural areas o Contribute to the elaboration of integrated development and stabilization strategies for areas with special need for action, particularly with regard to demographic and infrastructure developments o Use integrated policies to promote economic development 135 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 136 Ensure infrastructural links and mobility The competitiveness of regions and sub-regions depends to a decisive degree on their links and interconnectivity. The primary objective will remain to enhance regional competitiveness and to more effectively use the transport infrastructure by providing a sustainable and integrated global transport system. The settlement development and transport systems are to be even better coordinated so that they are sustainable in financial and spatial terms and contribute to reduce the land take. Furthermore, it is necessary to create reliable and robust infrastructural outline conditions in order to ensure the planning area competitiveness at the national economy as well as the supply of the population with goods and services. The links provided by information and communications technologies and networks are of decisive importance to the competitiveness of regions and sub-regions. Therefore, such links are a component part of the area-wide provision of public services and have to be ensured as such. Information and communications technologies as well as the potentials derived from the digitalization of several infrastructure services can help to make better use of the existing capacity and to improve accessibility. Approaches to action o Support the preservation and improvement of the quality of the transport links of the planning area o Create the spatial preconditions to eliminate the vulnerabilities of the road transport and intensify transnational cooperative systems. o Promote integrated spatial development and transport strategies which tackle even more the causes for the underdevelopment of rural areas. o Consider the potentials of information and communications technologies for spatial development purposes. 136 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 137 Figure 26: Map showing development scenario 1 - Hierarchy of Growth Nodes and Poles 137 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 138

3.4.1.2 Scenario 2: Climate Change and Sustainable Land Use Spatial planning policy should, at an early stage already, tackle the increasing conflicting uses of space by cross sectorial coordination and communication. Special attention is to be attached to resource conservation, the development of cultural landscapes, the reduction of land take, the development of renewable energy and of the networks as well as to the adaptation of the spatial functions and uses to climate change. Adapted land uses and the protection against avoidable impairment will guarantee the sustainable safeguarding of the living environment, the long-term usability of the natural resources such as soil, water, air, the biodiversity and, thus, the quality of life for and the supply of the population, even for future generations. Planning processes are to be made more open and transparent and the acceptance of planning procedures is to be enhanced by involving all stakeholders as early as possible. Minimize spatial conflicts of use The specifications in the spatial plans and the spatial planning reviews are intended to coordinate different sectorial concerns, to minimize conflicts of interest at an early stage, to inform the citizens in good time and, thus, to offer local governments and investors a sound basis for planning. The structures and activities of regional development are to be strengthened. Development processes are to be initiated, moderated and coordinated in close co-operation with the stakeholders in the planning area. Cooperation across local and regional authority borders (even crossing national borders) is to be supported. Approaches to action o Link up spatial planning projects and measures with measures of land organization and land consolidation as well as with compensation measures to minimize conflicts Improve communication and participation by interlinking the potentials of internet communication, geo-information and monitoring systems o Establish a central internet platform for spatial plans and spatial planning reviews o Mediate and settle land use conflicts in the course of planning areas Create large-scale open space networks It is intended to create large-scale open space networks – in order to preserve the importance of the high-quality open space to agriculture, forestry, biodiversity and biotope networks, ecology, settlement structures and recreational purposes. In densely populated areas high-quality open spaces are to be integrated into the open space network and, thus, upgraded. If necessary, public open spaces are also to be recovered here in order to establish continuous greenway linkages, to reduce the damage potential in flood-prone areas or to sustainably protect areas with valuable soils. 138 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 139 Approaches to action o Develop standards for the creation of regional open space networks (in terms of environmental protection, nature conservation and spatial planning) o Include the requirements of biodiversity, water protection and large-scale compensation in spatial plans o Adapt land uses by all stakeholders in the spatial and land use planning, water management, agriculture and forestry o Concentrate infrastructures and conversion areas to preserve open spaces o Take account of increasingly competing uses in open spaces, e.g. in cultural landscapes, small-scale reserves or valuable farmland. Shaping cultural landscapes The diverse cultural landscapes with their distinctive characteristics and cultural and natural monuments are to be evolved carefully. The aim is to strike a balance between the preservation of regional assets and new requirements as to their use and shape. Uses at the urban fringe such as renewable energy sources, the extraction of raw materials, the upgrading of the network, landfill sites as well as other technical installations are to be integrated in a compatible way into the cultural landscapes. Approaches to action o Elaborate concepts for the preservation and development of different cultural landscapes and special cultural landscape areas o Support national and interdisciplinary approaches and measures to develop cultural landscapes Reduce new land take The spatial planning system in the development planning at local government level are to decisively contribute to significantly reduce the new land take for settlement by 2025 and limit it to the necessary extent (the Sustainability Strategy that aims at a reduction of new land take). To this effect, it is increasingly necessary to implement measures and make use of existing as well as new instruments to strengthen inner urban development. The re-use of already serviced land helps to reduce the follow-up costs for the infrastructure. Quantitative and spatial restrictions of the settlement development aim at reducing the land take and at the protection of the open spaces, of valuable soils and their use for agricultural and forestry purposes. At the same time, centre- oriented steering processes for new settlement areas contribute to the development of energy- saving and compact settlement patterns which reduce the need to travel. This aim is supported by an increasing building density. The concentration and high density of settlements at the nodal points of local area leads to better utilization of existing infrastructures. In this connection, the concentration and higher density of built-up areas has to take more and more account of the requirements which result from an increased warming, especially in the town centres, which is attributable to climate change. In prospering areas of economic growth, problems 139 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 140 frequently arise with regard to the development of the housing market which may make it necessary to use new land. When weighting all aspects involved this has to be taken into consideration, also in view of social issues such as the provision of adequate housing for socially disadvantaged groups in the big towns. Approaches to action o Consistently use measures and instruments to strengthen inner urban development, especially with regard to a better survey and use of the space potentials o Concentrate and cluster built-up areas at the local area o Make greater use of measures to reduce land take for the realization of infrastructure projects o Substantiate regulations and planning instruments o Implement measures to raise awareness and improve information o Contribute to the preservation of agricultural as the basis for the production of food and renewable resources (also for renewable energy) Sustainably control the use of natural resources The exploitation of raw materials is also in the future to be coordinated with competing land-use requirements such as the settlement development or the shaping of cultural landscapes and to be ensured at suitable sites on the basis of spatial plans. A precautionary coordination in terms of time and space will remain necessary to protect the natural assets and for the spatially compatible use of raw materials which are tied to a fixed location. In the future, it should be possible to safeguard these economic areas by adopting appropriate spatial plans. Therefore, uses and risks are always to be assessed and their impacts on regional development are to be communicated in good time and thoroughly evaluated. Approaches to action o Endeavour to also include a spatial planning clause in the mining regulations o Elaborate and implement regional strategies for re-cultivation and subsequent uses o Address knowledge deficits and improve the information density and quality in the long run for spatial planning in the underground space Climate-induced changes in potentially tourist areas Just like in many parts of the world, climate change will presumably lead to major changes (opportunities and risks). Here, it will be increasingly necessary to adopt adaptation strategies. These strategies should include all relevant regional stakeholders. Climate-induced changes in the habitat for fauna and flora Climate change is likely to entail changes in the range of species, in the structure of whole ecosystems and a shifting of natural ranges. The main tasks are the safeguarding of these resources at the district as well as functionally connected network of open spaces of ecological importance to overcome the isolation of biotopes and/or whole ecosystems. 140 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 141 Natural carbon sinks are ecosystems such as forests, bogs (mires and fens) and wetlands which can remove more carbon from the atmosphere and store it than they can emit in the form of CO2 or methane. The preservation and restoration of such areas with a high sequestration potential for carbon, especially of the large-scale -are, therefore, of major importance to climate change mitigation. Synergies between climate change mitigation and the strategies to adapt to the consequences of climate change in the sectors of nature conservation, preservation of biodiversity, improvement of the hydrological regime and preservation of the soil fertility and, thus, the food production base, are to be increasingly applied. Adaptation strategies have to be developed as early as possible to cope with temporary conflicts of use. Approaches to action o Elaborate guidance for climate change impact assessment o Coordinate methods and indicators with sectoral planning, in particular with regard to the identification of vulnerabilities and to climate change monitoring o Introduce measures for the preservation and improvement of the natural sequestration of carbon in bog soils o Adopt climate-sensitive precautionary measures to ensure the availability of water resources and to avoid uses conflicting with ground water management o Adapt to the consequences of climate change, e.g. by an extended preventive flood o Elaborate adaptation strategies for agriculture and forestry as regards the consequences of climate change. o Enhance the acceptance of spatial specifications on the adaptation to climate change, even in view of uncertainties which possibly exist. 141 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 142 Figure 27: Development Scenario 2 - Climate Change and Sustainable Land use 142 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 143

4.4 Programme for the Preparation of Local Area Plan

4.4.1. Local Area Plan 2020 Local Area Planning has been adopted by the planning area under its Integrated Planning Framework and provides a mechanism for local communities to address issues through a consultative process. The process establishes a vision and objectives for each local area and identifies strategies and actions to achieve the vision and objectives that, together with strategies and actions identified in the Strategic Community Plan and the Local Planning Strategy. The objectives of Local Area Plan are as follows;  To advocate for the provision of infrastructure and services such as internet and mobile, electricity and water to meet the needs of IDP area‟s residents as the population grows.  To ensure preparedness through community safety education programs and on-going maintenance by the district.  To increase the economic diversity of the IDP area, both in town and rural areas through the expansion of tourism linked to agriculture and the areas natural beauty.  To preserve the environment sustainably by protecting the natural environment and agricultural production from un sustainable and competing land use.  To manage development pressures and ensure improvements in road infrastructure through on-going maintenance, road up grade and lobbying of the state government to expedite major road projects. The area extends from urban areas in all three constituencies to traditional or customary land. It is roughly bounded by the escarpment on the Luangwa river valley, perennial and non- perennial rivers on the plateau of the IDP area. The urban areas are strategically located close to major highways and transport infrastructure while the rural set up are mostly far away from improved infrastructure, The IDP area has the availability of land for potential development for local area plans. This opportunity can translate into the creation of a vibrant, innovative, mixed use, sustainable, socially inclusive, enabling the IDP area to perform both economically and socially at a district, provincial and national level. The vision of the IDP area is to be a region with high quality services provided to the citizen through sustainable economic opportunities and adequate infrastructure development by 2030 through the following: 1. Social services such improved health, housing and education facilities. 2. Improved road infrastructure 3. Sports and creation 4. Sustainable environmental management 5. Agriculture 6. Mining 7. Communication 167 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 168 8. Commerce, trade and industry 9. Establishment of Community forest The local Area Plan can identify a number of critical issues which require resolution of the leadership of local authorities, chiefs and co-operation with stake holders to promote and facilitate the development process in the following ways.  Low agricultural productivity  Low level of adoption on climate smart agriculture technologies  Low literacy levels among the rural and urban populations.  low livestock and fish production  low maintenance of infrastructure for sports and recreation  under developed transport systems  under developed settlements  un sustainable and un harmonised aesthetical development of all relevant land use  In adequate, safe and cost-effective water supply and sanitation services with regards to environmental protection  Floods especially in the valley part The Local area plan being a process of planning that is concerned with resolving local level problems and issues. Its priorities include overall welfare of the people and development of the local area. Maintenance of social services and amenities, promotion in the quality and quantity of local products and services and keeping surroundings and local environment clean and green are some of its continuous concerns. In terms of size, it is the smallest planning unit with reference to people and places in local areas. A planning which is carried out through people‟s participation turns out to be a dream of real situation reflecting continuous growth and development in the local area. The unique location of this site close to the transport infrastructure, with a wonderful landscape in the form of Muchinga escarpment, allows the IDP area to have more opportunities for the development of Local Area Plan. The strategic location of the site has significance in development of residential, commercial, cultural and amenity areas that will provide a high-quality environment. With appropriate investment, the IDP area is capable of supporting a population of at least 450,000 - 650,000 inhabitants. However, the achievement of this target will be dependent on the improving high literacy levels in education, improved health services, agriculture productivity, land use and conservation and preservation of natural resources. The development of a high-quality road- network connecting the valley to the urban areas will greatly benefit communities both in the valley and on the plateau areas in the planning area. New leisure parks and recreation centres and open spaces of the will be developed throughout the IDP area, complementing and enhancing development in rural communities. 168 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 169 The local area plan will base its development on a high-quality public infrastructure which will deliver a sustainable urban and rural land development. The development will be an adaptive, flexible urban and rural framework utilizing innovative and sustainable land use management principles and practices. The local authorities in the IDP area will use this idea as a benchmark for further development in the years to come. The vision for local area will be to become the self-reliant community influenced by the ability to provide appropriate and adequate public transport, increase access to local services, unlock access to employment, and the promotion of youth empowerment programmes and activities, and facilities. With the strong community presence in the area, this can be achieved to meet the needs of the existing community, as well as the needs of future generations. The following key priorities were identified by the community during the community consultation process. 1. Governance 2. Social Environment 3. Economic Environment 4. Natural Environment 5. Built Environment 6. Participatory Land Use 7. Movement and access 8. Conservation of buildings and other heritage elements 9. Floods and Droughts Governance To actively work on removing any barriers to development and to deliver community lifestyle choices through successful advocacy and ongoing collaborative partnerships with government, industry service providers and community. Social Environment To facilitate and improve access to local community services, youth activities, and community safety with consideration to community involvement in the process.The IDP planning area most of its population live under the poverty line and this can be attributed to the lack of better health and education facilities and also the roads in the planning area are in a poor state especially those leading to rural areas. In order to maintain a sustained delivery of social services to the population, the following objectives, strategies and projects will need to be put in place. To improve the infrastructure development such construction of roads, clinics and health posts. And this is attainable when both community leadership and the local authority work together in Local area planning. 169 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 170 Economic Environment Promote the development of activity centres and attract complementary commercial nodes and businesses to the local area to encourage local employment opportunities. Built Environment Provide required community facilities, parks, open space and transport linkages throughout the local area, and lobby for completion of major road and public transport projects directly impacting the IDP local area. There is no planned public open space within the settlement. There are large areas of incidental open space throughout, although these do not offer any formal recreational or other facilities. The only areas of recreational space are the playing fields located at the High School and the Basic School. Natural Environment Inform and prepare residents on bushfire readiness, through supporting environmental leadership and continuing to educate the local population in areas vulnerable to these activities especially rural areas of the IDP area. The population growth in the IDP planning area has a direct impact on the environment. The proposed developments will entail increased development and industrial activities that will have impacts on the natural environment hence sustainable environmental management is key to address the challenges that will emanate from developmental activities. This will be achieved through environmental impact assessments. All this will be achieved through taking into consideration of the existing traditional administrative structures so as to create harmony with other administrative processes. The re-planning of the IDP area entails relocation of the communities and also expansion of new residential areas, farm blocks and village expansion. Therefore, Community involvement and public participation in the proposed IDP local area plan will be cardinal. The development of the IDP requires the adoption of the urban peripheral inter relationships. This is a concept where the urban area depends on the rural areas for food supply while providing other requirements to the rural area. In the map below shows all the natural resources and where they are located in integrated development plan. The local area plan will protect the natural resources and agriculture production against increased pressure for subdivision of rural land and minimize the mining activities with potential impacts to the environment, landscape and the road networks in the area. The other aspect on the preservation of natural resources can be attributed to the loss of biodiversity through clearing and fragmentation, un sustainable land use planning and development practices, invasive species, pathogens and global and regional threats such as climate change. 170 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 171 The trend in the last five has been very negative on the issues to do with climate and the local area plan seek to address the same challenges and now the trend should in the next five yes. Hence the need to preserve and protect the natural resources and the environment. 171 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 172 Distribution of natural resources 172 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 173 The development of local area plan requires the adoption of the urban peripheral inter relationships. This is a concept where the urban area depends on the rural areas for food supply while providing other requirements to the rural area. In the map above shows key environmental issues found in the IDP planning areas and these plays significant role in Local area planning. The key environmental issues are; mine potential areas on plateau of IDP area which may contribute to land degradation and pollution, forest reserves have been threatened by human activities in the planning due to high demand of forest products by the majority in the urban centres in the planning area, another key issue which has been threatened is the national parks I.e Lukusuzi which been depleted due poaching and illegal mines doted around the park. Participatory Land use Local communities in the IDP planning area need means of securing rights and access to land and resources and of resolving conflicts over resource use through participatory land use plan which .this is because of growing concerns over emerging „land grab in rural and urban areas, whereby local communities lose control over and access to the territories and natural resources upon which their livelihoods depend. PLUP aims to address four different aspects outlined below; 1. Land use (Spatial) development potentials 2. Land use conflicts 3. Environmental problems (disasters) 4. Structural deficits The main purpose of the participatory Land use plan is to ensure that the communities are involved in planning and have access to land for their livelihood activities and their livelihoods are restored. Participatory Land use Planning has been done jointly comprising Lundazi, Lumezi and Chasefu Districts. This surging competition over land and resources are driven by a range of political and economic forces. Development strategies that reconcile emerging conflicts over land and natural resource use, and which provide local communities with secure rights and tenure, will be increasingly critical in the near future in light of these trends. 173 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 174 Local communities in land negotiations for PLUP Participatory land use planning is an interactive process based on the dialogue amongst all stake holders aiming at the negotiation and decision for a sustainable form of land use in rural areas. It is also aims evaluating and proposing alternatives uses of natural resources in order to improve live hoods. The facilitation team was responsible for facilitation of the drawing of the Village sketch maps as a way of learning about the various resources in the communities, this was led by Town planners, and GIS technicians using the sketch mapping tool. The technical team with a few identified village members mapped the resources (rivers, boreholes clinics, schools, dams, streams, existing forests etc.) The following was the process for mapping 174 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 175 Community members mapping the shared resources Flooding Flooding issues arising from the encroachment of dambos and streams in the built-up areas and clearance of field in the upper plateau of the district in the last 10 years has caused pressure to the people at the valley and the township. These have become susceptible to floods, further exacerbated by poor construction practices The actions to be identified will be aligned to the district‟s internal business planning process and will be reviewed annually as part of the local authority‟s corporate business planning process. 175 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 176 Table 47: Shows the action for addressing core issues in the planning area CORE ISSUES ACTION TO BE TAKEN DEPARTMENT RESPONSIBLE TIME FRAME Community information sessions on Bush Planning and Community Development 2020-2025 Fire Preparedness Lack of sufficient upgrades to internet and District Administration Social Environment mobile services Perceptions of community safety District Administration including lack of law enforcement in the area and emergency services Bush fire prone area assessments planning 2020 Young people should be able to Planning and Community Development 2020 participate in sport recreation activities at community facilities Lack of research information pertaining to Planning specific age groups and their needs for leisure and recreation spaces Low literacy levels among the rural and Education 2020 urban population Assessment of low agricultural production Agriculture 2020 in rural communities High malaria, mortality, morbidity and Heath HIV incidence rate by 5% Poor Land management near the urban Planning/Agriculture 2020 centre and rural communities Governance Improvement on advocacy and ongoing District Administration/Local Authorities 2020 collaborative partnerships with government, industry service providers and community 176 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 177 Economic Low agricultural production due to the use Agriculture 2020 Environment of poor agricultural farming methods Low livestock and fish production due to Livestock and fisheries 2020 the bad fishing methods in rural areas.

4.5 Monitoring and Evaluation Plan, Including Key Performance Indicators

4.5.1 IDP Monitoring and Evaluation Plan The purpose of the monitoring and evaluation plan is to guide through the project implementation process in the IDP planning area. The plan is a tool that will be used to measure the progress of the projects towards its intended goal and objective. This will ensure that it brings about efficiency and effective use of limited resources and bring the expected change in IDP planning area. Monitoring will focus on the management and supervision of project activities, seeking to improve efficiency and overall effectiveness of projects implementation. The plan will be a continuous process to collect information on actual implementation of project activities and delivering quality outputs in a timely manner. On the other hand, Performance evaluation will be assessing the project‟s success in achieving its objectives. Evaluation of the project‟s success in achieving its outcomes will be monitored continuously throughout the planning period. The indicators will be reviewed/ refined during the implementation of this M&E Plan to enhance measuring of project impact. Quarterly monitoring, implementation reviews and technical reporting will be done by the monitoring and evaluation subcommittee of the District Development Coordinating Committee (DDCC). 180 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 181 Table 48: Shows the IDP Monitoring and Evaluation Plan Objectives To improve literacy levels among the rural and urban population from 71% to 85% at all levels by 2025 indicator Source of frequency information strategies Programmes Target year 1 Target year 2 Target year 3 Target year 4 Target year 5 Upgrading of Infrastructure Survey Construction Construction Construction -Surveys conducted Ministry of First four schools development -constructions done Infrastructure and years Construction Rehab Rehab Rehab -Rehabilitations done education Rehab Monitoring Monitoring monitoring -Monitoring done Construction of Infrastructure Survey Construction Construction Construction -Surveys done Ministry of First to fourth new schools development -constructions done Infrastructure and years Construction Monitoring Monitoring M&E -Rehabilitations done education -Monitoring done Encouraging Management & Seedlings Orientation the gardening Ministry of First year production unit in Support Gardening for SHN coordinators done education/forestry schools Orientation for SHN coordinators Encouraging Standards & Assess Survey Construction Construction Construction -Survey done Ministry First four TEVETA practical Monitoring -Constructions done of Infrastructure years examinations -Monitoring done and education Adult literacy Distance education & Distance education and Yearly program Open Distance open learning programmes Learning introduced To reduce malaria high incidence rates from 560/1000 to 330/1000 by 2025 MoH and Vector control One-off Need One-off ITN One-off ITN -need assessments Ministry of health First three cooperating assessment distribution distribution conducted years partners to -ITN distributed increase access of Quarterly Quarterly Quarterly Quarterly -Sensitization meetings quarterly ITNs in rural and sensitization Inspection of inspection of inspection of conducted urban areas meetings ITN utilization ITN utilization ITN utilization -ITN utilization inspections done conducted Increase Case management Conduct quarterly Conduct Conduct Conduct mentorship in malaria case quarterly knowledge in mentorship in quarterly quarterly quarterly management conducted malaria case malaria case mentorship in mentorship in mentorship in management by management malaria case malaria case malaria case health workers management management management 181 Lundazi Joint Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 2020-2030 182 Objectives To improve literacy levels among the rural and urban population from 71% to 85% at all levels by 2025 indicator Source of frequency information strategies Programmes Target year 1 Target year 2 Target year 3 Target year 4 Target year 5 75% household Vector control 2 IRS micro 1.
