Will foreign intervention save Cabo Delgado?
Forces from Rwanda and SADC are making headway against terrorism in Mozambique, but more needs to be done.
More than 20 countries are now helping Mozambique to fight insurgents in Cabo Delgado province, train its army or deliver humanitarian aid. Will this turn the situation around?
A new Institute for Security Studies (ISS) policy brief on the situation in Mozambique warns that coordination among these foreign missions and tailoring the training being provided is vital to ensure effective responses. This seminar will discuss the progress and gaps in the current approaches to stabilising northern Mozambique.
Simultaneous Portuguese–English translation will be provided.
