Structural reforms, sound macro-economic policies, an opening to the global economy and political stability have generated strong growth since Mozambique emerged from the civil war and started its transition from planned to market economy. As a result, the poverty rate has declined and significant progress has been achieved towards attaining the Millennium Development Goals.Yet, the overall picture is mixed and progress achieved so far insufficient. Mozambique remains one of the world’s poorest countries, the decline in poverty appears to have stalled in recent years and income inequality remains high. The country is now confronted with an issue of “quality of growth” and it needs to consider measures to ensure that growth is pro-poor, inclusive and environmentally sustainable.
