| dc.description.abstract | Out of the many aspects of the Irangi Land use problems, this paper confines itself to a subject which has been largely neglected in the plethora of reports submitted, particularly by the last two publications, namely- "Soil Conservation in Tanzania: the Hado Project in Dodoma Region", by C. G. Wenner, Ajg. 1983 and "Ten Years of HADO" by A. C. Mbegu and IV. C. Mlenge, Feb. 1984. On this subject, Professor Wenner states "I do not agree to the need of research on socio-economic or cultural-anthropological factors, which is argued by some reports". Mbegu and Mlenge are silent on the subject. In contrast, President Nyerere is particularly outspoken about this. As is strikingly displayed in the Hado Project Manager's Office, the President says:- Go to the people. Live among them. Learn from them. Love them. Serve them. Plan with them. Start with what they know. Build on what they have. Further, when referring to the utilization of indigenous institutions, the President amplified by saying. We are not just trying to go backwards into the traditional past. We are trying to retain the traditional values of human equality and dignity, whilst taking advantage of modern knowledge about the advantages of scale and improved tools. In the socio-ecological sphere there are two distinct fields about which we should learn. The first is the techniques which the many varied ethnic groups hove evolved to ensure their survival, and secondly the sanctions which each society has devised to ensure conformity so that the accepted techniques are applied by all for the good of all. | en_US |
