      There are so many things going on in Mozambique as contributions and lending hands to help build Mozambique up after a history of bad things and things that have physically destroyed their land, animals and so much more. Mozambique has granted approval for a Private game reserve.  ''After extensive review, the government approved the project as a means to stimulate economic growth while protecting a globally important ecosystem,'' the statement said. U.S. millionaire James Blanchard III was the one who created the plan after presenting his plan waited for this moment. he also plans to restock the reserve despite the expensive costs of the animals. This is a project that will be an economic growth to Mozambique.

    Malangatana Valente Ngwenya a was a Mozambique painter and poet. He was known as "one of Africa's greatest contemporary artists". Unfortunately he only lived to the age of 74. The work he illustrated was that of the Mozambican history. Not only was his art work great art but it also told a story.
"Dias describes the renowned artist as "the father of Mozambican art", influencing practically every local artist who came after him with his "ethnic impressionism".  Malangatana Valente Ngwenya earned a good name in Mozambique not only for his art work and poetry but also as a supporter in Mozambique's independence struggle.

They have safari's and many different tours available to decide from. Visiting this place will prove that everything that's said bad about Mozambique may not always be true. Its so much said about the negative of Africa while leaving out the greatness and beauty of it. The sites are what will show the truth of Mozambique, Africa.

A Helping Hand

Mozambique: European Union Agrees to Grant 41 Million Euros

     This is a start to a new beginning for Mozambique. This will be a great benefit. What is going to happen is that The European union has agreed to give Mozambique 41 million Euros which equivalent to 50 million us dollars. This will be used to support local economic development, the rule of law, and non-state actors. This nice gesture will build up Mozambique in so many ways. Not only will it build them up as far as the physical aspect of it but also the esteem of Mozambique. This will be what will end some if not all poverty as well as many other things will follow..
 "Our expectation is that we will continue to work with the European Union in these and other areas to reach our ultimate goal, which is the fight against poverty and the development of our country", declared Banze.

Though all of the following pictures may not display to be a positive situations its about how things are and how they will change. This was about how the money given will be used to support the development of Mozambique. With that being said though things aren't perfect they are headed for better!

Prolonging Life

Mozambique to produce its own anti-retroviral drugs

Mozambique to produce its own antiretroviral drugs

     An interesting Article Found on The Telegraph was about Mozambique being the first country in Africa to produce its own anti-retroviral drugs to slow down the HIV virus that causes Aids. This is a very good thing. This will allow longer living lives for those with the HIV virus that causes Aids. Though they try to give it away for free it was an issue due to the fact that the importing cost was high. This is still an extremely positive piece of news coming from Mozambique. This gives people hope, who feels like Aids is a dead end road with no hope or cure to it.
