What it covers

A joint study by the African Development Bank and Interpeace on how private sector development and investment in Mozambique interact with the drivers of conflict, and how they could be designed to strengthen social cohesion instead. This summary sets out the main findings and recommendations for investors, development finance institutions and government: where investment is most likely to reduce tension, which practices raise it, and what a peace-positive approach to project design requires in the Mozambican context.
