    MOZAMBIQUE News reports & clippings 277 7 February 2015 Editor: Joseph Hanlon ( [email protected]) To subscribe: tinyurl.com/sub-moz To unsubscribe: tinyurl.com/unsub-moz Previous newsletters, more detailed press reports in English and Portuguese, and other Mozambique material are posted on tinyurl.com/mozamb This newsletter can be cited as "Mozambique News Reports & Clippings" __________________________________________________________________________ Nyusi and Dhlakama meeting in Maputo President Filipe Nyusi and Renamo president Afonso Dhlakama began a meeting at 11 am local time this morning (Saturday) at a hotel in Maputo. Dhlakama broke off his tour of the north yesterday to fly to Maputo. Initially he said he would only meet Nyusi if the Mozambican President accepted all of his demands in advance, then he said he would only meet Nyusi if he came to Cabo Delgado. Now he is in Maputo, but the meeting is in a hotel and not a government building, which will be seen as a neutral venue. Thursday deadline to take parliament seats Renamo continues to boycott national and provincial parliaments. A group of Renamo members elected to the parliaments met with Renamo president Afonso Dhlakama on Sunday 1 February asking to take their seats, but Dhlakama maintained the hard line and said "anyone who takes their seats would be insulting not Dhlakama, not Renamo, but the thousands of Mozambicans who voted for fair elections”. (MediaFax, 2 Feb) He argues that the elections were fraudulent and that he won the 2014 election, just as he says he won the four previous elections. The MPs should not take seats in what he sees as fraudulent parliaments.

  • PROJECTS and AREAS of INTERVENTION CAM Operates in a Multi-Sectoral and Integrated Development Programme in Sofala Province, Central Mozambique
    Consorzio Associazioni con il Mozambico (CAM) is an Italian NGO created in 2002 and headquartered in Trento but originally set up within an experience of decentralised cooperation between the Autonomous Province of Trento (PAT), situated in the northeastern part of Italy, and Caia district in the north of Sofala Province (Mozambique). The project was launched in 2000 in the framework of the Programme for Local Human Development that UNOPS (United Nations Organization for Project Service) was managing in Mozambique, with funds among others of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This led to the signature of a cooperation agreement between PAT and the Province of Sofala in 2002, which was then updated in 2005. This was based on the construction of territorial partnerships and on the beginning of new cooperation relationships between decentralised entities and civil society actors in the two territories. CAM was officially founded in 2002 by five associations already operating in Mozambique. Since its establishment in 2002, the identity of CAM matched with a multisectoral community cooperation programme "Trentino in Mozambique - Mozambique in Trentino" that the organisation coordinated with and on behalf of the Autonomous Province of Trento in the districts of Caia and Marromeu. In the last few years, CAM expanded its geographical area of intervention in Central Mozambique. In particular, since 2016, CAM has been implementing various projects in Beira in the area of waste management and more recently water and sanitation. PROJECTS AND AREAS OF INTERVENTION CAM operates in a multi-sectoral and integrated development programme in Sofala Province, central Mozambique. The logic of this programme is to maximize the impact of sectoral interventions and achieve sustainable development at a local level.

  • CONSERVATION STATUS of the LION (Panthera Leo) in MOZAMBIQUE
    CONSERVATION STATUS OF THE LION (Panthera leo) IN MOZAMBIQUE _ PHASE 1: PRELIMINARY SURVEY Final Report - October 2008 TITLE: Conservation status of the lion (Panthera leo) in Mozambique – Phase I: Preliminary survey CO-AUTHORS: Philippe Chardonnet, Pascal Mésochina, Pierre-Cyril Renaud, Carlos Bento, Domingo Conjo, Alessandro Fusari, Colleen Begg & Marcelino Foloma PUBLICATION: Maputo, October 2008 SUPPORTED BY: DNAC/MITUR & DNTF/MINAG FUNDED BY: SCI FOUNDATION, CAMPFIRE ASSOCIATION, DNAC/MITUR & IGF FOUNDATION KEY-WORDS: Mozambique – lion – conservation status – status review – inquiries – distribution range – abundance – hunting – conflicts ABSTRACT: The IUCN-SSC organised two regional workshops, one for West and Central Africa (2005) and one for Eastern and Southern Africa (2006), with the intention to gather major stakeholders and to produce regional conservation strategies for the lion. Mozambican authorities, together with local stakeholders, took part in the regional exercise for establishing the Regional Conservation Strategy for the Lion in Eastern and Southern Africa. They recognised the importance of establishing a National Action Plan for the Lion in Mozambique and realized the lack of comprehensive information for reviewing the lion profile in the country. A survey has been launched to update the conservation status of the lion in Mozambique. The final report of this survey is expected to become a comprehensive material for submission as a contribution to a forthcoming National Action Plan workshop. The current report is the product of only the preliminary phase of this survey. The methods used are explained and preliminary results are proposed. A database has been set up to collect and analyse the information available as well as the information generated by specific inquiries.
