Mozambique’s foreign minister emphasised the important of EU support for training the defense forces and for the national inclusive dialogue. MEPs advocated for the need to step up the response to the situation in the North, to provide jobs and perspective for young people there

Energy is main sector in the 🇪🇺-🇲🇿 partnership. Mozambique needs to expand access to electricity and create a stable grid. Team Europe is keen to engage strategically in the energy sector. MEPs discussed Global Gateway flagships and how to make sure investments are sustainable.

MEPs had a good, open exchange with the Vice-President of Mozambique's Parliament and Chair of Foreign Affairs committee. Both stressed the crucial support from EU to the country's National Dialogue. MEPs appreciated Mozambique's engagement in interparliamentary cooperation

On their final day in Mozambique, MEPs learned that 6% of GDP goes to education in Mozambique but the needs are rising much faster than the budget can cope. Teacher training, pupil retention, quality of education but also basic infrastructure needs for schools are the focus.

Mozambique is very vulnerable to natural disasters and climate change. Cyclones, floods & drought hit repeatedly. The EU supports the country's INGD to anticipate and manage shocks, though according to UN agencies funds are lacking for partners to build true resilience.

🇪🇺 support is key, UN agencies & INGOs present in Cabo Delgado told MEPs. Only 25% humanitarian needs are covered & attacks are increasing. MEPs discussed the critical need for government action on poverty as a basis for peace. Humanitarian-development-peacebuilding go together.
