Implementation Maputo Peace Accord
This project continues the support to the implementation of the Maputo Peace Accord between the ruling party (Frelimo) and the opposition party (Renamo) which was brokered by Switzerland in 2019. The priority is the Disarmament, Demobilisation, and Reinsertion (DDR) of the 5'221 ex-combatants, which should be finalized by the end of 2023. This will be followed by a phasing out and handing-over of remaining aspects of the Accord to suitable government or other structures until 2024.

| Contexto | Since the signing of the Swiss brokered Maputo Peace Accord (MAP) in August 2019, noteworthy progress has been achieved in the implementation of the DDR process. Both conflict parties Frelimo and Renamo remain committed to the peace process. However, the DDR process has progressed slower than expected, mainly due to the Covid-19 restrictions, logistical challenges and higher costs of the DDR process. In addition, the integration of ex-combatants into the general pension scheme is still awaiting a final resolution. |
| Objectivos | To contribute to peace and reconciliation in Mozambique to avoid the resurgence of armed hostilities between the Government and Renamo. |
| Grupos Alvo |
Overall 28 Mio. Mozambican men and women are benefiting from sustainable peace and security. The remaining 37% of the DDR beneficiaries (1’954) have been demobilized, have returned to their location of choice and have received a 12 months stipend. Indirect beneficiaries are communities in the conflict areas, benefiting from enhanced security, freedom of movement, and more favourable development and private sector investment conditions. |
