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. -

Twenty-one villages were inaccessible, and three villages could not be found or were unknown to local people.

Investment Opportunities in Mozambique Agribusiness Edition October 2016 MESSAGE from the EDITOR
Investment Opportunities in Mozambique Agribusiness Edition October 2016 MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR The Financial Sector Deepening – Moçambique and Monitor Deloitte are proud to partner to produce this first edition of Investment Opportunities in Mozambique. The mission of the joint Monitor Deloitte – FSDMoçambique publication is to showcase investment opportunities in Small and Medium enterprises, with the aim of reducing informational assymetries thus promoting access to capital to unlock growth and employment opportunities. This first edition focuses on agribusiness in a broad sense, including agricultural production and support services, food processing and forestry. Agribusiness has so far been severely constrained by a lack of access to credit and under- investment which has hampered the sector with the largest share in GDP (more than 20%) and the largest contribution to employment. However, Agribusiness is a sector that holds great potential given the extent of Mozambique’s unused arable land (85% according to the Centre for Agriculture Promotion, CEPAGRI) and its agro-ecological conditions, specially conducive to surpluses in the northern and central provinces. Promoting the good performance of SMEs in agribusiness is essential to develop endogenous growth opportunities that strengthen the economic fabric of the country, decreasing its dependence on foreign aid and food imports, as well as making it more resilient to exogenous shocks. Most importantly, since agribusiness is the main source of employment in the country and SMEs are labour intensive, unlocking growth opportunities for SMEs can generate much- needed employment opportunities for current and future generations. João Machado Anne-Marie Chidzero Country Managing Partner Chief Executive Officer Deloitte Mozambique FSDMoçambique 2 Executive Summary The Financial Sector Deepening – Moçambique and Monitor Deloitte are pleased to partner to produce the publication Investment Opportunities in Mozambique. -

Women, War and Peace in Mozambique: the Case of Manica Province
Women, war and peace in Mozambique: The case of Manica Province Mark Chingono* Abstract The Mozambican civil war, 1977–1992, left an ambiguous legacy for women. Whilst women were among the most vulnerable victims of the war, in some ways they were also its unintended benefi ciaries. The civil war, by weakening both the state and the traditional family, offered unprecedented opportunities for women to break free from patriarchal control. Especially decisive were women’s own responses to the war, which in turn were a function of their pre-war situation, class, and personal history. Some women managed to see and seize opportunities in their predicament and prospered, especially as informal entrepreneurs, while many others succumbed to their fate. A few even engaged in civil society activism, for instance, setting up victim support networks and participating in peacebuilding. This paper shows that, while destroying society the war also catalysed the process of gender transformation, social fragmentation and civil society activism. It concludes that violent confl ict is a moment of choice, in which individual and collective responses create opportunities and/or constraints. Keywords: Women, war victims, activism, patriarchy, emancipation, Mozambique * Dr Mark Chingono (Ph.D., University of Cambridge, 1994) is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Political and Administrative Studies, University of Swaziland. He has researched and published on violence, gender, religion, conflict resolution, civil society, the state and the environment. 107 Mark Chingono Introduction Barely two years after independence in 1975 Mozambique was plunged into a vicious civil war, which ended in 1992 after the internationally-mediated Rome peace talks (Vines 1991; Chingono 2005; Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs 2013). -
