Índice da Sociedade Civil em Moçambique 2007

O Índice Sociedade Civil (ISC) é uma ferramenta, desenvolvida pela CIVICUS, de avaliação participativa de necessidades e de planificação de acção que já foi aplicada em mais de 50 países, com o objectivo de criar uma base de conhecimento e ímpeto para iniciativas de fortalecimento da Sociedade Civil. O processo, em Moçambique, foi muito participativo e envolveu um leque variado de actores ao nível das bases, organizações de mulheres, de jovens, organizações informais, partidos políticos, sector privado, instituições académicas e governo, entre outros. Este envolvimento proactivo dos vários intervenientes no ISC garantiu o sentido de posse no país e partilhou o compromisso de todos de se alicerçarem nos sucessos da Sociedade Civil para resolverem as fraquezas inerentes.

National Human Development Report 2007 - Mozambique

This is the sixth NHDR produced since 1998. The theme of the 2007 edition is the HIV and AIDS pandemic.

The report finds that HIV and AIDS are exacerbating the problems of poverty, malnutrition, low educational levels and gender disparities, thus threatening the attainment of the MDGs as well as slowing growth and development.
