Maputo, 30 January 2020 – Eni and the Area 4 partners delivered a refurbished multipurpose sports field to the authorities and residents of Bairro Unidade 7, in the Community of Maria Auxiliadora, in Maputo.

The rehabilitation consisted in the replacement of the floor and electrical system. A fence, playground and green spaces were built, and all the necessary equipment for the practice of various sports were provided.
The Unidade 7 Neigborhood has approximately 9,000 inhabitants, and this infrastructure will directly benefit families and children linked to the Maria Auxiliadora religious community.
Filipo Maioli, General Manager of Eni Rovuma Basin, said “we are delighted that in few months of hard work this area is now transformed and will serve the community by providing a space for human development” appealing to a sustainable use to contribute, in a qualitative way, to a healthy environment.
The ceremony was attended by the Maputo Municipality authorities, representatives of the Ministry of Mineral Resources (MIREME) and the National Petroleum Institute, as well as the education sector.
