WHAT WE DO

With more than 1,500 miles of coastline, Mozambique is a southeastern African country that is rich in natural resources and minerals. Stunning harbors along the coast help boost the country’s tourism industry. But because of a recent history marked by conflict and turbulence, Mozambique has struggled to fully take advantage of its natural resources and achieve a stable economy. The country remains at the bottom of the United Nation’s Human Development Index with an average life expectancy of 46.6 years and very low-income levels. World Renew works with local partners in Mozambique to implement programs focused on efforts such as combating hunger and creating better economic opportunities for communities.

The Reformed Church in Mozambique (Mphatso Synod) is a Reformed Christian denomination founded in Mozambique in 1909 by missionaries from the Dutch Reformed Church. Due to disagreements with the Portuguese government at the time, the Reformed Church in Mozambique was prevented from continuing its activities in 1922 but returned to revitalize the church and missionary bases after the country’s independence in 1975. Currently, through support from partners like World Renew, the Reformed Church has been implementing education, health, justice, and agriculture projects to support the needs of local communities.
