  • PROJECTS and AREAS of INTERVENTION CAM Operates in a Multi-Sectoral and Integrated Development Programme in Sofala Province, Central Mozambique
    Consorzio Associazioni con il Mozambico (CAM) is an Italian NGO created in 2002 and headquartered in Trento but originally set up within an experience of decentralised cooperation between the Autonomous Province of Trento (PAT), situated in the northeastern part of Italy, and Caia district in the north of Sofala Province (Mozambique). The project was launched in 2000 in the framework of the Programme for Local Human Development that UNOPS (United Nations Organization for Project Service) was managing in Mozambique, with funds among others of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This led to the signature of a cooperation agreement between PAT and the Province of Sofala in 2002, which was then updated in 2005. This was based on the construction of territorial partnerships and on the beginning of new cooperation relationships between decentralised entities and civil society actors in the two territories. CAM was officially founded in 2002 by five associations already operating in Mozambique. Since its establishment in 2002, the identity of CAM matched with a multisectoral community cooperation programme "Trentino in Mozambique - Mozambique in Trentino" that the organisation coordinated with and on behalf of the Autonomous Province of Trento in the districts of Caia and Marromeu. In the last few years, CAM expanded its geographical area of intervention in Central Mozambique. In particular, since 2016, CAM has been implementing various projects in Beira in the area of waste management and more recently water and sanitation. PROJECTS AND AREAS OF INTERVENTION CAM operates in a multi-sectoral and integrated development programme in Sofala Province, central Mozambique. The logic of this programme is to maximize the impact of sectoral interventions and achieve sustainable development at a local level.

The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of national societies to respond to disasters. CHF 282,067 (USD 266,497 or EUR 193,583) has been allocated from the Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the Mozambique Red Cross Society (CVM)1 in delivering immediate assistance to some 10,000 beneficiaries. Un-earmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: Parts of Mozambique experienced heavy rainfall since mid February 2010, mainly in the central region covering Zambézia, Tete, Manica and Sofala Provinces. The persistent rains have saturated the soil causing floods in the valleys of Buzi, Zambézia, Licungo, Save and other rivers affecting approximately 17,000 people. The rainy situation has also been experienced in the neighbouring countries of CVM volunteers helping people distributing relief items to Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe. the affected people The CVM, as one of the main aid agencies is supporting the government initially by mobilizing the affected population to move to safe areas, in the designated relocation camps.

Anaemia is a public health problem in mothers and preschool children in Mozambique and up to 40% of these cases are probably due to dietary iron deficiency. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) recognize the fortification of foodstuff as an effective method to remedy dietary deficiencies of micronutrients, including iron. Cassava mahewu, a non-alcoholic fermented beverage is prepared at subsistence level from cassava roots using indigenous procedures. The aim of the study was to standardize mahewu fermentation and investigate if the type of cassava fermented, or the iron compound used for fortification affected the final product.
