Que tipo de protecção social poderá Moçambique desenvolver sem poupança interna e profundamente dependente da poupança externa? Esta é a questão principal que este artigo pretende discutir. A discussão é feita em dois sentidos: mostrar a importância da pesquisa dentro da qual a pergunta surgiu e mostrar a relevância da relação que a mesma estabelece entre a poupança e a protecção social. No primeiro sentido, a relevância da pesquisa é demostrada na abordagem das limitações e deficiências...

Em 2019, pela primeira vez na história documentada, dois fortes ciclones tropicais atingiram Moçambique na mesma estação do ano. No dia 14 de Março, o ciclone tropical IDAI atingiu o porto de Beira (afectando 50 distritos em 5 províncias ), e seis semanas mais tarde, o ciclone Kenneth atingiu o norte de Moçambique (afectando 14 distritos em duas províncias). A devastação causada pelos ciclones poderá elevar o número de crianças que necessitam urgentemente de assistência humanitária nas áreas...

Key messages: 1. The envelope of resources for the 2019 State Budget is set to increase to MT 340 billion (from MT 303 billion in 2018), representing Mozambique’s largest nominal budget; however, once factoring in the depreciated currency and high inflation of recent years as well as high debt servicing payments, the purchasing power of this envelope –including for priority sectors– no longer represents a historical high. 2. The share of resources dedicated to investment in Mozambique has...

Background How do governance interventions that engage citizens in public service delivery planning, management and oversight impact the quality of and access to services and citizens’ quality of life? This systematic review examined high quality evidence from 35 citizen engagement programmes in low- and middle-income countries that promote the engagement of citizens in service delivery through four routes: participation (participatory priority setting); inclusion of marginalised groups;...

Inequality is a key political issue of our times. It has political consequences, fuelling conflict and raising legitimacy chal‑ lenges for regimes around the world, in democratic and non‑demo‑ cratic settings alike. At the centre of these challenges is the question of accountability: who can be held accountable, on what basis, how and by whom for tackling or failing to tackle which inequalities. In the field of global health, inequality has long been a key issue. A significant body of work —...

As I explored in my previous blog, the health sector and provision of health services in Mozambique is an uneven playing field. Since 1980 it has been shaped by a range of donors who have strategically positioned themselves according to their political weight and ability to contribute with ‘commodities’ and financial resources. Although donors’ contributions […]

Nos últimos 10 anos, os estudos sobre a participação política por intermédio das redes sociais marcam o debate na área dos estudos dos média. Em Moçambique, de forma particular, e no mundo, de forma geral, a juventude representa o centro galvanizador que encontra no uso das redes socias uma ferramenta quase ideal de expressão sobre as suas frustrações decorrentes da sua situação de gritante miséria social – desemprego e incerteza de vida constante a que os jovens se encontram expostos. Com o...

Likened to the Tower of Babel legend, the Mozambican national health system speaks several languages and pursues a range of different interests, answering to a number of partners and other bilateral and multilateral actors who all have some kind of circumstantial and contextual interest. When the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness was endorsed, Mozambique may […]

Este artigo surge na sequência de um artigo anterior onde se considerou em termos gerais muitas das questões que Moçambique enfrenta hoje em dia na gestão dos seus novos recursos extractivos. Em primeiro lugar descreve-se o pico de investimento já desencadeado pelas novas descobertas de gás em Moçambique. Depois apresenta-se em resumo alguma da literatura mais recente sobre os efeitos desses picos noutros países e contextos. De seguida analisam-se os principais aspectos dos resultados...

This paper is a sequel to an earlier paper that looked in broad terms at many of the issues that Mozambique faces today in managing its new extractive resources. The paper first describes the investment surge that has already been prompted by new gas discoveries in Mozambique. It then summarizes some of the more recent literature that has examined the effects of such surges in other country contexts. It next examines the main aspects of the disappointing economic outcomes that have so far...

In this article, Ferrant examines decentralization reforms in Mozambique since 1994, through an analysis of primary and secondary sources, and a framework that draws from the theses of political scientist Daniel Ziblatt and sociologist Michael Mann.

The article shows that corruption is structural and omnipresent in Mozambican society, effectively legitimising corrupt practices at all levels. Using an anthropological approach, it argues that smallscale corruption has the most immediate effects for the urban and rural poor and is so common that it has become an integrated part of daily life, or ‘habitual’. While most of the poor relate to corruption through tacit acceptance and acts of compliance, its practical implications are most severe...

Buoyed by a drop in inflation and the advancement of one of two major gas projects, the Mozambique Economic Update (MEU): Shifting to Inclusive Growth notes that the country is more stable since the 2016 debt crisis triggered the economic slump, but growth prospects are limited. Gross domestic product (GDP) growth was an average 3.8% in 2016 and 2017 and is expected to reach a slightly lower rate of 3.3% in 2018. Services such as tourism, transport and finance—all hardest hit by the...

A recent study on information disclosure in the extractive sector has found 18 factors that result in citizen and institutional (state and non-state) inaction in demanding government accountability. Conducted by the Partnership for African Social and Governance Research (PASGR) in collaboration with the Centre for Public Integrity (CIP), as part of the Action for Empowerment and Accountability (A4EA) research programme, the study shows that citizens and/or institutions are unlikely to...

Abstract: The construction sector value added in Mozambique grew at an average annual rate of 12.8 per cent in 1993–2015. Investment in the basic infrastructure of health, education, and housing improved families’ and communities’ living conditions. Investment in roads, communications, and office facilities boosted economic activities and reduced transaction costs. Construction value added grew by only 1.1 per cent in 2016. Challenges ahead include enabling a business environment conducive...

In recent years, Mozambique has made international headlines for the significant hydrocarbon deposits found offshore. These have increased the country's extractive resource endowments, in addition to its mining and onshore natural gas sector. It is expected that these industries will contribute to economic diversification and social development, not least by means of procuring locally produced goods and services and hiring Mozambicans. A key factor to achieve this is building domestic...
