LOCAL WATER USERS’ VOICES ON PERCEPTIONS OF EXOGENOUS FACTORS DRIVING WATER INSTITUTIONAL CHANGES IN IRINGA AND KILOMBERO DISTRICTS, TANZANIA
Journal Title: International Journal of Applied and Natural Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
Although there is substantial institutional changes in the water sector, insights into how exogenous factors influence these changes at local levels to remain insufficiently established, especially in developing countries like Tanzania. This study tries to fill this gap by examining local water users’ voices on perceptions of exogenous factors that influence water institutional change. To this end, farmer-managed irrigation schemes from Iringa and Kilombero districts in Tanzania were involved as study cases. A household survey using a structured questionnaire was a major tool for data collection. An in-depth interview with key informants and document analysis carried out to supplement information from the household survey.
