  • 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.

  • Women's Lived Landscapes of War and Liberation in Mozambique
    Women’s Lived Landscapes of War and Liberation in Mozambique This book tells the history of the changing gendered landscapes of northern Mozambique from the perspective of women who fought in the armed struggle for national independence, diverting from the often-told narrative of women in nationalist wars that emphasizes a linear plot of liberation. Taking a novel approach in focusing on the body, senses, and landscape, Jonna Katto, through a study of the women ex-combatants’ lived landscapes, shows how their life trajectories unfold as nonlinear spatial histories. This brings into focus the women’s shifting and multilayered negotiations for personal space and belonging. This book explores the life memories of the now aging female ex-combatants in the province of Niassa in northern Mozambique, looking at how the female ex-combatants’ experiences of living in these northern landscapes have shaped their sense of socio-spatial belonging and attachment. It builds on the premise that individual embodied memory cannot be separated from social memory; personal lives are culturally shaped. Thus, the book does not only tell the history of a small and rather unique group of women but also speaks about wider cultural histories of body-landscape relations in northern Mozambique and especially changes in those relations. Enriching our understanding of the gendered history of the liberation struggle in Mozambique and informing broader discussions on gender and nationalism, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of African history, especially the colonial and postcolonial history of Lusophone Africa, as well as gender/women’s history and peace and conflict studies.
