Sustainable Development in Mozambique

Mozambique's moves to plan for sustainable development are of vital interest to neighbouring South Africa. Dominated until recently by destruction rather than development, Mozambique in the late-1990s is working towards building sustainable development. The contributions and research here are the work of government ministers, NGOs andacademics pursuing this end. Among the topics covered are: governance and decentralization; creating industrial development projects; harmonizing formal and customary law in the management of natural resources; improving the management of the coastal zone; environmental education; managing water resources; and the impact of gold mining.
