  • Part 4: Regional Development Plan
    PART 4: REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Chapter 1 Overall Conditions of the Study Area The Study on Upgrading of Nampula – Cuamba Road FINAL REPORT in the Republic of Mozambique November 2007 PART 4: REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Chapter 1 Overall Conditions of the Study Area 1.1 Existing Conditions of the Study Area The Study area consists of the two provinces of Niassa and Nampula. The total length of the Study road is approximately 350 km. In this chapter, overall conditions of the study area are described in order to prepare a regional development plan and to analyze economic, social and financial viability. The Nacala Corridor, which extends to Malawi through the Nampula and Niassa Provinces of Mozambique from Nacala Port, serves as a trucking route that connects northern agricultural zones with important cities and/or towns. In the rainy season, which is from November to April, the region has a high rainfall ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 mm. As the Study road is an unpaved road, it is frequently impassable during the rainy season, affecting the transportation of crops during this period. Looking at the 3 regions in Mozambique, results of the economic performance study conducted by UNDP over the period under analysis continue to show heavy economic concentration in the southern region of the country, with an average of about 47% of real production as can be seen in Figure 1.1.1. Within the southern region, Maputo City stands out with a contribution in real terms of about 20.8%. The central region follows, with a contribution of 32%, and finally, the northern region with only 21% of national production.

  • Impact Evaluation Design for Mozambique-MCA
    Impact Evaluation Designs for the Mozambique-MCA Land Project: Improving Site-Specific Access to Land Activity in Urban and Rural Areas (Activities III), and the Institutional Strengthening of the Land Administration System (Activities II) Submitted to the Millennium Challenge Corporation By Michigan State University (MSU) and the Ministry of Agriculture Department of Economics (MINAG-DE) Songqing Jin, Mywish Maredia, Raul Pitoro, Gerhardus Schultink, and Ellen Payongayong October 11, 2016 ABSTRACT: The Land Tenure Services Project (or simply the “Land Project”) of the Mozambique MCA compact aims to establish more efficient and secure access to land by improving the policy and regulatory framework and helping beneficiaries meet their immediate needs for registered land rights and better access to land for investment. The Land Project consists of three main types of activities (Activities I, II and III) and several component activities that will be implemented at different levels of geopolitical aggregation (i.e., national, provincial, District, Municipal, “hot spots” areas, etc.). The Michigan State University (MSU) was contracted by MCC to evaluate the impacts of different activities under the Land Project. Specifically, MSU is responsible for evaluating the activities that can be rigorously evaluated, namely, the activities that allow us to establish valid treatment and control groups. This document lays out three separate evaluation designs that evaluate different activities under the Land Project. They include (1) evaluation of the institutional strengthening activity (Activity II) which involves upgrading land administration system in selected municipalities and districts, (2) evaluation of the ‘hot spots’ (or site-specific) activities (Activity III) in urban areas and (3) evaluation of the ‘hot spots’ activity (Activity III) in the rural areas.

  • Cabo Ligado Weekly: 7-13 June 2021
    OBSERVATORY CONFLICT CONFLICT 17 June 2021 Cabo Ligado Weekly: 7-13 June 2021 Cabo Ligado — or ‘connected cape’ — is a Mozambique conflict observatory launched by ACLED, Zitamar News, and Mediafax. BY THE NUMBERS Cabo Delgado, October 2017-June 2021 • Total number of organized political violence events: 895 • Total number of reported fatalities from organized political violence: 2,887 • Total number of reported fatalities from civilian targeting: 1,420 All ACLED data are available for download via the data export tool. SITUATION SUMMARY The conflict in Cabo Delgado was relatively quiet last week. However, new information about earlier events has come to light. The only confirmed conflict incident from last week took place on 12 June near the village of Nova Família, Nangade district, where local hunters found two decapitated bodies in a swamp close to the village. A local official claimed that the bodies must have been insurgents killed by government forces in the area. Government forces, however, are not commonly known to decapitate their victims, suggesting that these people were likely killed by insurgents. A media report that the Mozambican military is utilizing anti-vehicle landmines, including one that detonated on a road in Muidumbe district on 30 May, was vociferously denied by the country’s defense ministry. Mo- zambique has a long and terrible history with landmines, which were used extensively during the country’s civil war and which killed and injured many civilians. After a long and costly effort, the country was declared landmine-free in 2015. A defense ministry spokesman cited Mozambique’s commitment to the Ottawa Treaty, which bans anti-personnel mines and which Mozambique ratified in 1998, in his denial.
