This study focused on the role of food security groups' networks in poverty reduction in Chamwino district, Dodoma region Tanzania. The objectives of the study were to a) describe FGNs in terms of membership, activities and sustainability; b) identify the roles and extent to which Food Security Groups Networks have contributed towards poverty reduction; c) identify factors of success or failure and best practices in Food Security Groups Networks; d) identify and describe strategies for strengthening FSGNs. The study population consisted of all members of FSGNs who had participated in FSGNs for a minimum of three years. Data for this study were obtained using a case study research design whereby purposive sampling was used to select three villages out of 13 villages. The criteria for selecting the three villages were existence of FSGN in each of the villages, presence of a complete Community Cereal Bank building in a particular village and accessibility. A combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was used to collect data for this study. Tools such as personal interviews, in depth interviews, documentary review, observations and focused group discussion were used to collect data. Qualitative data were analysed using content analysis whereby quantitative data mainly from structured questionnaires were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The main findings of this study in relation to poverty reduction are summarized as follows; the FSGNs have played different roles including increasing the capacity of members to access the extension services and empowering FSGN members in the areas of knowledge, decision making, finance and entrepreneurial ability. The two roles have reduced poverty among FSGN members by ⒜ increasing income of members (increase in the mean annual households' income of FSGN members from TAS 194030.28 to 357 456.34 pre and post Food Security Program respectively) enabling them to have access to good education for their children, quality housing and adequate clothing; ⒝ increasing agricultural production (mean increase in farm yields and fann size from 11.7 to 28.73 bags per ha and 1.5.2 to 3.14 ha, respectively); ⒞ improving household food security as a result they addressed problems such as malnutrition (change in feeding habits and practices implied by change in number of meals from at least 1 to utmost 3 meals per day in growing season) and change in family diet composition (e.g. rice and meat) which were seen as rare food, before they could be taken twice to thrice a week. Other findings of this study as well as recommendations are presented in chapter five of this dissertation.
