1.4 Study methodology Study Partners This case study is a joint effort involving the following partners: Methodology • Institute of Resource Assessment, at University of Dar es Salaam: background research and review of literature, interviews of households and institutional representatives, and on-site visits to flood-prone areas, report-writing • Ardhi University: 2-dimensional flood modeling • Tanzania Meteorological Agency (TMA): provision of data on current climatic trends for Dar es Salaam, and projected future climate • International START Secretariat: editing, coordination, report-writing • Support from Dar es Salaam City Council, consultation with NGOs and building on work from UNDP • WBI: guidance and feedback This case study was developed using the following 5 approaches: Literature review Preliminary research was done by examining available published information on Dar es Salaam’s demographics, access to infrastructure and basic services, and climatic trends and projections. Gathering in-depth information on proposed policies and programs for the city, however, particularly those of relevance for the urban poor, proved very difficult. Obtaining meteorological data of high relevance to the study, e.g., in-depth analysis of rainfall intensity, was also difficult, suggesting capacity issues as well as resource and time constraints. Household level socio-economic surveys The surveys were designed to elicit information on populations living in flood-risk areas (see Annexes 1(a)-(e)) and contained questions on demographics; housing; household expenditure patterns; livelihoods; water sources, consumption and quality; disease prevalence; sanitation practices; energy use patterns; and knowledge and perceptions of climate risk and change. The study team supplemented the household interviews with onsite observations and inspection of surroundings, as well as focus group discussions with residents. Thirteen residential areas were studied, primarily in flood-prone areas (see Table 1). A total of 543 households were sampled. For the sake of comparison, a few households from adjacent not-at-risk areas were also interviewed. These included (i) Kibangu area in the Makuburi Ward, which is a raised hilly area adjacent to Ubungo Kisiwani, a floodprone area along the Ubungo River system, and (ii) Makuti A (hilly and non-floodprone), for the Suna study area (Suna is in the lowland in Msimbazi Valley and receives wastewater from the Ubungo and Msimbazi Rivers). 14
