Agribusiness Expert for Rural youth employment in Mozambique
Mozambique is one of the poorest countries in the world (Human Development Index: rank 180 out of 189).
As the country's most important sector, the agricultural and food economy secures the livelihood and income of more than 5.7 million people (72 % of the economically active population), the majority of whom are women.
However, the sector has low productivity overall and is still strongly oriented toward self-sufficiency.
