A Landscape Approach to Elephant Conservation in Mozambique
A landscape approach to elephant conservation in Mozambique by Cornélio Pedro Ntumi Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Zoology) in the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences University of Pretoria Pretoria February 2012 i © University of Pretoria A landscape approach to elephant conservation in Mozambique Student: Cornélio Pedro Ntumi Supervisor: Professor Rudi J. van Aarde Conservation Ecology Research Unit Department of Zoology & Entomology University of Pretoria Pretoria 0002 rjvaardezoology.up.ac.za Co-supervisor: Dr Sam M. Ferreira Scientific Services South African National Parks Skukuza 1350 South Africa Degree: Doctor of Philosophy (Zoology) ii Abstract People and elephants share landscapes throughout Mozambique. Here elephant conservation management focuses on protected areas but fails to address the conflict that exists between elephants and people. In this thesis I develop a landscape approach to conflict mitigation that is designed to accommodate the needs of people and of elephants in human-dominated landscapes. Mozambique faces a dilemma: politically it is required to reduce poverty while at the same time adhere to international agreements and requirements to protect biodiversity with relatively scarce financial resources. Reactive mitigation of human-elephant conflict (HEC) at the site-specific scale have proven to be costly and with low efficacy. A shift from reactive to proactive HEC mitigation approaches at the county-wide scale (e.g. a district level, the administrative planning body) may provide opportunities to reconcile such apparent contrasting requirements in Mozambique. The elephant population of Mozambique is fragmented and remnant sub-populations are limited to clusters of protected areas in a matrix of human-dominated landscapes. -

The population is primarily rural and dependent on agriculture, with 60% living on the coastline. Droughts, flooding and cyclones affect particular regions of the country and these are projected to increase in frequency and severity. The main institution for managing and coordinating climate change responses is the Ministry for Coordination of Environment Affairs (MICOA), the Ministry for Planning and Development also has a key role. New institutions have been proposed under the National Strategy on Climate Change but are not yet operational, it was approved in 2012. (Artur, Tellam 2012:8) Mozambique Climate Vulnerability and future project effects (Artur, Tellam 2012:9) Summary: The main risk/hazards in Mozambique are floods, droughts and cyclones with a very high level of current and future vulnerability in terms of exposure to floods and cyclones as more than 60% of the population lives along the coastline below 100 meters of altitude. -

Adaptive Governance for a Changing Climate: Government, Communities
ACCRA CASE STUDY JUNE 2017 ADAPTIVE GOVERNANCE FOR A CHANGING CLIMATE Government, communities and others working collaboratively in Mozambique to transform climate adaptation planning systems Community members validating their local adaptation plan with district government officials and ACCRA team in Guija district, Mozambique. Photo: Thomas White In Mozambique, climate change has been increasing the vulnerability of rural and urban communities. Droughts, floods and cyclones are more frequent and severe, and sea- levels continue to rise – and the situation is likely to worsen. This has undermined the government’s efforts to achieve its goal of reducing extreme poverty. The approval of the new National Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Strategy (ENAMMC) in 2012 presented an important opportunity for ACCRA to advise the Government of Mozambique and ultimately to effect systemic and institutional change in planning for climate change adaptation. ACCRA also supported MITADER, which is responsible for operationalizing the strategy, with tools, resources and advice on processes. This story of change was developed following an external evaluation of ACCRA’s work in Mozambique, through a series of interviews and a learning history workshop held in October 2016 in Maputo.

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. -
Final Report Mozambique: Food Insecurity
Final Report Mozambique: Food Insecurity Emergency Appeal no MDRMZ012 GLIDE n° DR-2016-000142-MOZ Date of Issue: 22 September 2017 Date of disaster: January 2016 Operation manager (responsible for this EPoA): Point of contact: Lorraine Mangwiro, Head of Southern Africa CCST Ernestina Jama, Acting Secretary General Operation start date: 22 April 2016 Operation end date: 31 May 2017 Operation budget: CHF 1,702,895 Number of people assisted: 14,767 individuals (2,954 households) Host National Society: Mozambique Red Cross Society (CVM) has 159 staff members and 6,500 volunteers actively engaged on various programmes in 11 Provinces. For this operation: 11 staff and 197 volunteers were directly involved Red Cross Red Crescent Movement partners actively involved in the operation: IFRC, Spanish Red Cross, German Red Cross and Danish Red Cross Other partner organizations involved in the operation: The Department of Disaster Management (INGC), WFP, COSACA (a consortium of NGOs comprised by Concern Worldwide, Save the Children and CARE International), World Vision International and IOM A. Situation analysis Description of the disaster The El Niño conditions that persisted during the 2015/16 planting season caused the worst drought in 35 years in Southern Africa, resulting in a second consecutive failed harvest, thus reducing food availability by 15 per cent compared to the five-year average. In Mozambique, the food security and nutritional assessment of the Technical Secretariat for Food Security and Nutrition (SETSAN), released in September 2016, estimated that 1.5 million people were food insecure in seven provinces i.e. Maputo, Gaza, Inhambane, Tete, Manica, Sofala and Zambezia. -
28 August 2002 Systems Network
Famine Early Warning 28 August 2002 Systems Network Highlights • A rapid emergency food needs assessment was conducted from 22 July to 11 August 2002 by teams from WFP, FEWS NET, the Ministry of Agriculture (MADER) and the National Institute of Disaster Management (INGC). Final results of the assessment will be released by the end of August, but preliminary analysis shows a slight increase in the total number of people requiring food aid. • Overall, the number of people needing emergency assistance is expected to drop in Manica, Tete, Inhambane and Gaza, while estimated needs may increase in Sofala and Zambezia with the inclusion of several new districts. • In Nampula Province, the team found no general need for food assistance in the coastal districts despite the effects of cassava disease. Cassava is the main staple food in the region and production has been greatly reduced, but households have other food and income sources (including fishing) that are adequate to meet their minimum food and non-food needs. Urgent action is necessary to multiply and transport disease- resistant varieties to farmers. • Retail maize prices fell slightly in the middle of August in Maputo, due to an increase in supply from various domestic markets. Prices in Beira continued to rise gradually. Prices are higher than normal for this time of year, and they are expected to continue to rise as the year progresses. The rate and extent of the rise will be key determinants of food security in the coming months. • The probability of El Niño has risen to more than 95%, making it virtually certain that El Niño conditions will persist through the remainder of 2002 and into early 2003. -
