Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The head of the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), Jorge Moreira da Silva, has admitted the possibility of extending the US$200 million support programme for refugees in Cabo Delgado beyond 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe project is considered exemplary in terms of implementation. If you ask me if, when the project ends, in 2025, an extension will be necessary? I admit that yes and I think, in fact, that it is highly likely that it will be necessary to go beyond 2025,\u201d Jorge Moreira da Silva told journalists in New York after meeting President Filipe Nyusi on the sidelines of the 78th annual meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.<\/p>\n

Since 2022, UNOPS has led the implementation of support for more than one million refugees from all districts of Cabo Delgado, a province in northern Mozambique affected by terrorist attacks in the last six years, worth US$200 million (around \u20ac187 million) financed by the World Bank and intended for development and humanitarian projects in the region.<\/p>\n

This is the largest humanitarian project underway in the country and the largest being developed by UNOPS in Africa, acting on the quality of life of people who fled the conflict, the well-being of these populations and host populations, but also on rehabilitation and construction of infrastructures in the areas of sanitation, water, energy, health and education, and which should be prolonged.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot because of any slippage \u2013 on the contrary, things are being accomplished in a timely and efficient manner \u2013 but because the needs are greater. We know that the needs of the population in that region, and the associated context, require a response that goes beyond 2025. Therefore, I sincerely hope that, with the World Bank and the Government of Mozambique, UNOPS can go beyond 2025,\u201d Moreira da Silva acknowledged<\/p>\n

He added that, after receiving the invitation from the Mozambican head of state, he intended to visit Cabo Delgado, \u201cto understand, in practical terms, the needs and envision ways to go beyond 2025\u201d as involving the \u201cdevelopment of the economy and the creation of jobs\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, it is a project that has a medium-term perspective. It is not a project that ends in a year,\u201d da Silva emphasised.<\/p>\n

In the meeting with the Mozambican head of state, Jorge Moreira da Silva also took on the objective of expanding projects in the country. \u201cWe were talking about other projects, particularly in the energy sector. Mozambique is one of the countries in the world with the greatest potential for growth of solar energy,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a very significant potential in Mozambique for growth in solar energy, but at the same time there is still a large population without access to electricity. We need clean energy for everyone and this presupposes valuing endogenous resources, in this case energy solar energy. And this is an area where we are very interested in a partnership with the government,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cI received an invitation from the President of the Republic to go to Mozambique very soon to see the projects and also to discuss new projects. I am very happy that, as UNOPS is the largest agency with a presence in Mozambique, that the Government of Mozambique sees how very positive our work is,\u201d he pointed out, explaining that UNOPS is the United Nations agency \u201cthat makes things happen\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not an agency that designs reforms or designs policies. That is for other agencies or for the Government (…) We are, in practice, the engineers of the United Nations. We are those who, once the projects are identified and strategies, we make it happen. And I have the greatest interest in the donor community looking more and more at Mozambique,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is also an extraordinary country, with potential for remarkable growth and development and that is why we are very interested in partnering with other United Nations agencies and other governments, in partnering with Mozambique,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
