EU Aid for rural development

    JOHANNESBURG

    The European Union (EU) has offered Mozambique US $75 million for development projects in the central and northern parts of the country, media reports said on Monday.

    EU representative, Javier Puyol, said about US $30 million would be used for rural development projects in Zambezia, Cabo Delgado and Inhambane provinces. He said the aim of the projects would be to improve the infrastructure and social conditions in sectors such as education, health care and water supply. The remaining US $45 million would be used to help repair the Zambezia-Nampula road. Repairs on the road are expected to begin next year.
