Abstract

A report from Mzumbe University discusses the impact of climate change on food security and public health in Tanzania. The research findings reveal that climate change has hindered poverty reduction efforts in the country, leading to the impoverishment of millions and compromising both health and food production. The study emphasizes the need for rigorous scientific research to understand the complex interactions between climate change, food security, and diarrhoea prevalence. The research suggests that a comprehensive strategy is necessary, including sustainable agricultural practices, robust public health interventions, and targeted policies to strengthen the adaptive capacity of communities. Community engagement and awareness initiatives are also highlighted as important for fostering sustainable practices and resilience in the face of climate change challenges.
