Mozambique

In the past twenty years I’ve been to Mozambique four times. In 1990, I worked on an urban agro-forestry project in Matola Rio just outside of the capital Maputo.  At this time I also traveled to Quelimane and saw some of Zambezia province. In 1994 I was an election monitor for Mozambique’s first multi-party elections and was based in Pemba, Cabo Delgado.   In 2009 and 2010 I returned to work with Citizen’s Network for Foreign Affair’s Farmer-to-Farmer Program. In 2009 I lived in Chimoio and assessed the entire horticultural value chain along the Beira Corridor. In 2010 I traveled to Mogovolas District in Nampula Province to assess the state of horticultural production in the District and the potential for increased regional sales through an innovative marketing scheme.

To find out more about what I did during each of these trips search for posts categorized either “Mozambique 2009″ or “Mozambique 2010″ on the home page.
