The main instruments used in data collection were structured questionnaires administered to households and Focus Group discussions that were used to collect data from seven villages in Pujini. These villages include Kibaridi, Dodo, Tondooni, Kijili, Kumvini ,Mkamandume and Mtimbu respectively. The study also made direct observation to record important information related to the study. The study results showed that population around Mkamandume historical sites(ruins) have little knowledge in relation to historical sites, indeed they are less contributed in preserving the sites, the coordination team between the government and the community is less functioning and hence results the distortion of Mkamandume historical sites. While some people graze in different areas, others establish plots of farming. The findings also revealed that as population increases also socio economic activities are increasing in the areas as result land disputes and conflicts occurred within the community. In this regard therefore, the need to make comprehensive measures to preserve the sites is really obligatory for the betterment of community and nation at large.

    Improving Management Strategies for Sustainable Fishery in Zanzibar
    (Tanzania Commission of Science and Technology (COSTECH), 2021-05) Tanzania Commission of Science and Technology (COSTECH)
    Fishery resources are a vital source of food and make valuable economic contributions to the local communities in Zanzibar. Irrespective of the increase of the total catch being currently reported, there is a sign of decline in catch per unit effort due to increasing number of fishers, vessels, gears, and fish demand resulting from increasing population and tourists. Also human and environmental factors such as pollution, illegal fishing and climate change contribute to the imbalance of the catch-ability of the fisheries resources contributing to the negative impact to livelihood support. Improved management strategy for these resources is recommended for improving livelihoods and the sustainability of the fishery resource.support, and improvement of local business prominence for consideration for the transition.

Kufuatia juhudi hizi, TRA ilitoa mapendekezo kadha wa kadha yanayolenga kuhakikisha kuwa Tanzania inanufaika na rasilimali samaki walioko katika Ukanda Maalumu wa Uchumi (EEZ) wa Tanzania ili kuchangia katika pato la Taifa.

    The Impact of Population Growth in Zanzibar Economy
    (COSTECH, 2017-08) COSTECH
    Zanzibar Population Policy (2008) had noted that rapid population growth with low economic growth increases consumption, decreases investment and slows down the overall growth of national output by reducing the rate of capital formation. It also increases public spending on education, health and other public services (ZPP, 2016). The Policy further makes specific reference to the importance of sustainable development for all by creating synergy between population issues, resources, human settlements and environment. Over the past two decades, Zanzibar has recorded significant growth of the economy. Notable achievements have also been realised in specific areas; child mortality has declined, child marriage minimized, maternal services improved, GDP has increased, inflation maintained to single digit and an increase in life expectancy, among other achievements. That notwithstanding, Zanzibar is still challenged by a number of issues that are linked with population growth

    Zanzibar Blue Economy Policy
    (Zanzibar Planning Commission, 2020-10) Zanzibar Planning Commission
    The Zanzibar Development Vision 2050 regards the blue economy as a priority area for the next 30 years, serving as an effective and sustainable means of improving livelihoods and transforming the economy. The blue economy policy has thus been developed as a guiding framework for the implementation of the sea-based economy for the coming decade. The blue economy policy aims to work in the following priority areas: fisheries and aquaculture, maritime trade and infrastructure, energy, tourism and marine and maritime governance. Through the implementation of this policy, Zanzibar has the opportunity to increase employment, improve the balance of trade, promote food and nutritional security and maintain environmental resilience. Subsequently, by 2030, given the effective operationalisation of the policy, we expect Zanzibar to be the leading hub for blue economy activities in the Western Indian Ocean region.
