A work that is worth the courage to discover unknown land and open new horizons. From the first to the last theme, you feel the pulsar of the country, its history, its aspirations, its challenges, its quarrels and uncertainties. It is as if the country systematically placed itself in the mirror to be observed, and at the same time had the possibility of falling within a broader economic, social and environmental perspective.

Everything happens around a very dynamic triangle that has Mozambique as the starting point. Then we see the African continent that occupies a privileged space, through the themes and trends that have been revealed in recent times. The framework is complete with the global perspective of humanity and its supreme objectives: drastic reduction of poverty, control of the effects of uncontrolled urbanization, gender equality, youth training and environment, environmental challenges, re-encounter with the historical and social roots of humanity and other equally relevant issues.
