A cobertura específica dos programas de Protecção Social definidos no PQG 2015-2019 não...

The August 2019 Maputo Accord on Peace and Reconciliation appears not to be standing on entirely solid ground. Not only has the decentralization agreement suffered from last minute ‘adulteration’, but also the DDR process has been lacking speed and rigour. The circumstances and outcomes of the October 2019 elections have cast doubt on the extent to which Renamo will abide to the August 2019 agreement. The party appears to be split on the matter of the – officially disowned armed Junta...

In the case of Mozambique, the pandemic came on the heels of two destructive cyclones that had devastated large parts of the country in 2019 and whose consequences were still being felt. In northern Mozambique, increasing violence in Cabo Delgado province resulted in a surge of internally displaced persons into local communities in Cabo Delgado, Nampula and Niassa provinces.
