The mission of the Agência do Zambeze, which was established in 2010, is to promote the socio-economic and sustainable development of the Lower Zambezi River Basin. This Basin comprises 34 districts in four provinces: Manica, Sofala, Tete and Zambezi. In addition to these districts the Agency’s geographical remit also comprise 6 districts that fall outside the River Basin area. \n\nFollowing Decree No. 23/2010 of June 2010 the ZVDA is mandated to act in three areas:\n\n•\tUndertake studies and present strategies for the socio-economic development of the Lower Zambezi River Basin. \n•\tProvide technical and financial assistance to socio-economic development initiatives in the Lower Zambezi River Basin, including mobilizing funds for such initiatives and channelling them to beneficiaries. \n•\tProvide support to local governments in local land use planning and socio-economic development\n\nThe management of the Agency has taken the strategic decision to facilitate, rather than to implement development projects. By means of national and international tenders, public and private partners are invited to apply to undertake the projects. To a limited extent, ZVDA staff or consultants are charged with project management tasks.\n\nThe Agency seeks to play a decisive role in coordinating the relationship between the partners, funders, implementing agencies and beneficiaries. Therefore, information collection and sharing, supervision and monitoring of projects and programmes are key tasks.\n","exclusions_policy_url":"","first_publication_date":"2017-08-31T00:00:00+00:00","hq_country":"MZ","organisation_identifier":"MZ-NUIT-50039061","organisation_type":"10","region":"","reporting_source_type":"primary_source","website":"https://www.facebook.com/Ag%C3%AAncia-de-Desenvolvimento-do-Vale-do-Zambeze-675303539191026/"}
