The surface waters evolution is about 60% from the 10 Primary School Matasse January to the 22 January 2017. It is likely that flood waters have been systematically underestimated along highly vegetated areas along main river banks and within built-up urban areas because of the special Nova Mambone characteristics of the satellite data used.

  • 21 January 2004
    Famine Early Warning Systems Network 21 January 2004 Highlights o Rainfall has been well below normal in much of central and southern Mozambique this season, raising fears of a third consecutive drought year. o In addition, temperatures have been above normal, increasing evaporation rates and reducing soil moisture. o A district-by-district rainfall analysis shows that rainfall totals in much of central and southern region are below 50% of normal for the period. Eastern Inhambane and Gaza Provinces are the worst affected areas with shortfalls ranging from 17 to 29% of normal. In meteorological terms, less than 75% of normal rain over an extended period is considered a drought. More than half of the country meets this definition at present. The effects on agriculture depend on when crops were planted and how much longer the rains continue. o The poor rainfall has already affected agriculture in most of the southern region, where rains start earlier. The first planting has failed in much of the southern region, and households had to replant at least once. The amount of rainfall in January and February will determine whether these second and third plantings will succeed. o In the provinces of Manica, Sofala, and Tete crops are showing signs of marked stress, but because the season starts later and lasts longer in these areas, most plants could recover if substantial rainfall occurs in January and February. Some rains are forecast for mid-January in the central regions. o River and dam levels in areas south of the Save River are below both last year (a drought year) and the longer-term average.

  • Terms of Reference Conducting Viability Assessment And
    Terms of Reference for Conducting viability assessment and design implementation for sustainable livelihood opportunity interventions for seven coastal fishing communities in Massinga, Vilankulo and Govuro districts, Inhambane Province 1. BACKGROUND World Wide Fund for Nature - Mozambique Country Office’s (WWF-MCO) vision is that “natural capital is well maintained and thriving, ensuring sustainable and equitable development for the wellbeing of the people of Mozambique.” This vision is intended to be achieved through four conservation goals on Governance, the Rovuma landscape, the Zambezi landscape, and the Mozambique seascape. The Mozambique seascape sub-strategy goal is that by 2020, priority coastal and marine habitats and species populations are at least maintained at 2015 levels or recovering. Three main sub- strategies are identified to achieve this, namely: (a) reducing the negative impacts from commercial and artisanal fisheries; (b) ensuring that priority habitats and coastal communities are resilient and better adapted to climate change impacts; and (c) building civil society capacity and knowledge to apply the precautionary approach to extractive industry development in marine and coastal areas. The scope for the sub strategy includes 4 specific geographical areas of focus, namely Quirimbas Archipelago (including Quirimbas National Park (QNP)) and Primeiras and Segundas Environmental Protected Area (PSEPA) in the north, the Sofala Bank fishing grounds in the center, and the Inhambane Seascape in the south. Prevailing militant insurgency in Cabo Delgado province led to WWF Mozambique taking the decision to close its operations in the area and in agreement with the primary donor, to relocate the national component of the Improving Governance, Livelihoods and Ecosystem program (SEWOH Fisheries program) to Inhambane province in 2020.

  • Community-Based Best Practices for Disaster Risk
    COMMUNITY-BASED BEST PRACTICES FOR DISASTER RISK REDUCTION Prepared under the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the European Commission Humanitarian Office (ECHO) through the Disaster Preparedness Programme (DIPECHO) Regional Initiative in Disaster Risk Reduction March, 2010 Maputo - Mozambique Foreword This compilation provides a comprehensive review and analysis of community-based best practices for reducing the risk of disaster from natural hazards affecting Southeast Africa and the Southwest Indian Ocean. It also provides new examples of how various actors and agencies have successfully implemented interventions to reduce risks from the prevalent hazards and minimize damage and losses to property and livelihoods. In Mozambique, Malawi, Comoros and Madagascar in particular these risks are exacerbated by high poverty levels – the most vulnerable are people living in poor rural areas. The evidence emerging from recent experience makes a compelling case for a radical shift away from narrowly focused development approaches towards a major new emphasis on community resilience and disaster planning. Floods which are caused by swelling rivers in the catchment areas of neighboring countries, floods from cyclones, storm surges, earthquakes, fires and other such events, when combined with social and economic vulnerabilities, and added to environmental depletion, can multiply the shocks from disasters and lead to crippling economic losses. Moreover, the risks posed by the regional effects of climate change require considerable adaptation by the exposed populations. But at the same time, governments in vulnerable countries are faced by hard budget choices, which make major investments in emergency preparedness (such as wide training at national, district and local level) very difficult. While we cannot prevent natural disasters, we can limit their impacts.

  • MOZAMBIQUE Food Security Update February 2007
    MOZAMBIQUE Food Security Update February 2007 Many households in southern and central Mozambique are now, or are about to become, food insecure. In the south, drought conditions over the past several months have caused crop failure in inland Gaza and Inhambane and parts of Maputo provinces. The poorest households are quickly depleting their reserves from the 2005/06 harvest, and will soon be forced to reduce consumption, rely on market purchases earlier than normal and employ negative coping strategies such as selling productive assets. Urgent provision of short‐cycle variety seeds is needed for the second season in March/April. If the upcoming second season is poor as well, or if households do not receive the needed inputs, many households may be forced to rely on negative coping strategies throughout much of 2007. Cyclone Favio, a category 4 cyclone, hit Mozambique in Vilankulos District in Inhambane Province on February 22, then moved northwest through northern Inhambane, southern Sofala and Manica provinces. The cyclone has caused at least ten deaths and destroyed homes and infrastructure, including tourist facilities in Vilankulos. Most households affected by the cyclone lost food reserves, crops and fruit trees, and are likely to face acute food shortages in the coming weeks. Food, water and shelter are urgently needed. Despite the damage, Cyclone Favio brought welcome rainfall to many areas that had experienced drought conditions earlier in the season. Second‐season planting is possible, but seeds are urgently needed, as many households are spending their already meager resources to repair homes or meet their food needs. In central Mozambique, households affected by floods along the Zambezi are experiencing temporary food insecurity.
