  • Activity Report Prolinnova–Mozambique for 2015
    Activity Report Prolinnova–Mozambique for 2015 Introduction In 2015, as in the previous 2–3 years, Prolinnova–Mozambique did not have many activities because of limited funds available to the regular network cooperation partners, including ADCR, the non- governmental organisation (NGO) that hosts the network. The most relevant activity in this year was the presentation of local innovations through exchange visits and experience sharing among farmers from different areas in Gaza and Maputo Provinces. The farmer associations that are part of the Prolinnova–Mozambique network are located mainly in these two regions. As mentioned in earlier reports from Prolinnova–Mozambique, the Catalonian NGO CIC-batá has been supporting the farmers in the southern provinces of Gaza and Maputo as part of their efforts to achieve long-term food security and sovereignty in this region. The NGO identified synergies in the activities of Prolinnova–Mozambique, which are centred in recognising and promoting local innovation. This served as an entry point for CIC-batá in its work towards sustainable development in the rural communities. As has been done in previous years, the Catalonian NGO again decided to support some local NGOs, members of Prolinnova–Mozambique, through its programme: “Contributing to achieve food security and sovereignty in the provinces of Maputo and Gaza in Mozambique”. The support was in the form of funding for a variety of activities, among them the presentation of promising local innovations that the Prolinnova–Mozambique network has identified in the past years. Priority was given to achieving increased agricultural production and productivity, environmental protection, soil conservation and pest control as well as post-harvest conservation of products.

  • Disrespect and Abuse During Facility-Based Childbirth in Southern
    Galle et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2019) 19:369 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-019-2532-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Disrespect and abuse during facility-based childbirth in southern Mozambique: a cross-sectional study Anna Galle1*, Helma Manaharlal2, Emidio Cumbane2, Joelma Picardo2, Sally Griffin2, Nafissa Osman2,3, Kristien Roelens1 and Olivier Degomme1 Abstract Background: Evidence suggests that many women experience mistreatment during childbirth in health facilities across the world, but the magnitude of the problem is unknown. The occurrence of disrespect and abuse (D&A) in maternity care services affects the overall quality of care and may undermine women’s trust in the health system. Studies about the occurrence of disrespect and abuse in Mozambican health facilities are scarce. The aim of this study was to explore the experience of women giving birth in hospital in different settings in Maputo City and Province, Mozambique. Methods: A cross sectional descriptive survey was conducted between April and June 2018 in the Central Hospital of Maputo (HCM) and district hospitals of Manhiça and Marracuene, Maputo Province, Mozambique. Five hundred seventy-two exit interviews were conducted with women leaving the hospital after delivery. The questionnaire consisted of the following components: socio-demographic characteristics, the occurrence of disrespect and abuse, male involvement during labor and childbirth and intrapartum family planning counselling and provision. Results: Prevalence of disrespect and abuse ranged from 24% in the central hospital to 80% in the district hospitals. The main types of D&A reported were lack of confidentiality/privacy, being left alone, being shouted at/scolded, and being given a treatment without permission.

The challenges include a lack of capacity to implement technology transfer, ineffective extension services, and bottlenecks in information systems for innovation. In order to provide a forum for research and development practitioners to present and discuss outputs from the technology generation and dissemination activities implemented under the Agricultural Productivity Programme for Southern Africa (APPSA), the Center for Coordination of Agricultural Research in Southern Africa (CCARDESA) organized a scientific conference in Lilongwe, Malawi. Specifically, the conference was aimed at providing a platform for researchers under APPSA and other stakeholders to (i) share research results and experiences and (ii) deliberate on emerging issues in agricultural research and propose possible interventions.
