They recognise that in this building of ours the architecture is perfect, because we have the laws, we have signed all the conventions, protocols, everything is in order, but the foundations of the house are fragmented\u201d, she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we look at the debates, and even the agreements that we have been signing, we have never had the voice of women in these processes, we have never had the voice of young people\u201d, she noted.<\/p>\n<p>Grac\u0327a Machel, who is also patron of the prominent NGO, the Community Development Foundation (FDC), stressed that peace, stability and social cohesion form a process that requires the participation of all sectors of society, including women, young people, and people with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>For his part, former Mozambican President Joaquim Chissano called for \u201ceffective social cohesion\u201d in the country to avoid young people being recruited into the ranks of terrorist groups in northern Mozambique, considering that the country is facing a \u201chidden enemy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need effective social cohesion so that our young people and community members are not recruited to the terrorist cause\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.facebook.com\/ONUMocambique\/posts\/pfbid0A7Fh7G93VfSH3M51oDYXxLuSUEdYn47bQgg1QWieMn83X4Ch1aeiiEhNsV8z88upl\"><b>Facebook Post click here<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
