In Cabo Delgado, via the Pro Resilience (PRORES) project, we are dedicated to protecting the land, fostering economic diversification, and we have contributed to equitable access to drinking water, improving sanitation practices and services, and enhancing the quality of educational services in the Mecúfi district. We have bolstered the resilience of local communities against the effects of climate change by: raising awareness of the importance of biodiversity and environmental conservation, which encompasses the rehabilitation of mangrove ecosystems, and endorsing sustainable economic practices like beekeeping and aquaculture. We have also advocated for improved sanitation access, particularly in rural schools, and striven for equitable provision of safe drinking water, aiming to expand the coverage of water supply for communities. In Mozambique, we are active in the exploration sector, as well as in the development and production of liquefied natural gas and though the Coral South project. This has enabled the country to join the global LNG market, encouraging job creation, energy stability, and the diversification of supply sources. Through our partnership with the local community, we are also working hard to create innovative and unique models for the energy transition in the areas of agro-energy, forestry, and clean cooking.

Territory protectionWithin the framework of the Pro Resilience (PRORES) project, we have supported a range of activities for local communities in the Mecúfi district, in partnership with Lúrio University. This is part of the sustainability plan for the Coral South FLNG (Floating Liquefied Natural Gas) project. Specifically, our activities have concentrated on three primary areas of intervention.
We have supported more sustainable practices to safeguard biodiversity, enhancing awareness of its importance for communities and environmental conservation. To achieve this, we have supported the regeneration of mangroves by adopting a community-based approach, facilitated by providing training and equipment. The initiative has enabled communities to rehabilitate hectares of vegetation, yielding concrete benefits for coastal defence, flood mitigation, and the preservation of ecosystems.
We have developed agricultural activities to support the creation and enhancement of the abilities of individuals and their organisations to establish and manage income-generating economic activities. We have involved farmers and local communities in the rehabilitation of degraded areas through beekeeping, mussel cultivation, gardening, and aquaculture activities. Through training, we have offered support and expertise in agricultural techniques, managerial skills, and commercial strategies. At the same time, supplying machinery, materials and equipment has supported the initiation or expansion of economic activities.
We have carried out initiatives to expand access to clean drinking water, enhancing the provision of water supply services for rural communities. To achieve this, new water and sanitation facilities were constructed, and existing infrastructure, including community drinking water wells and primary school toilets, was refurbished. We have also conducted awareness-raising campaigns focusing on more sustainable water usage, the maintenance and management of the provided infrastructure, and the best hygiene and sanitation practices.
