	The Abundance and Distribution of Water Hyacinth in Lake Victoria and the Kagera River Basin, 1989-2001: Summary Report
		This region near the Kagera River at the border between Tanzania and Rwanda contains a large number of small to medium sized lakes.
		In general, those lakes that are close to and/or connected to the Kagera River are more likely to have experienced water hyacinth invasion than those that are farther away and/or not connected.
		We suspect that the large reduction in water hyacinth that occurred between 1997 and 1999 was due, at least in part, to flood waters associated with the El Niño event breaching the blocked outlet of Lake Mihindi allowing water hyacinth to spill out of the lake and into the river system.

		For example, when prime-aged women die, malnutrition increases among their orphaned daughters under age three, and the schooling of older children is sacrificed.
		Third, adult mortality from AIDS and other causes is only one among many roots of poverty and low living standards in Kagera, and it is not the most important one.
		Since analysis of the Kagera survey data shows that per capita consumption in the better-off households is not depressed by an adult death, and many poor households have had no adult death, the project results do not support the idea of targeting assistance to all Kagera households that have suffered an adult death.
