ust as the National Working Group,
the coordination of the Cabo Delgado
Technical Group will also be done by
the Ministry of Justice, Constitutional and
Religious Affairs, supported by the Ministry
of National Defense, where the Center for
Democracy and Development (CDD) will be
responsible for the Secretariat, and the Ge-
neva Centre for Security Sector Governance
(DCAF) providing technical assistance. The
effective implementation of the Voluntary
Principles on Security and Human Rights is
supported by the British High Commission in
Mozambique and the Swiss Agency for De-
velopment Cooperation.
The launch of the Provincial Working Group
is the result of several months of preparatory
meetings and research activities, including
research and analysis for a baseline study
on the security and human rights situation
in Cabo Delgado, and consultations with
provincial authorities. Speaking at the cere-
mony, the Governor of Cabo Delgado reitera-
ted the support and commitment of the local
government to the effective implementation
of the Voluntary Principles on Security and
Human Rights.
“In supporting this initiative it is in our in-
terest that the Provincial Group on Voluntary
Principles on Security and Human Rights be
influent so that the current development po-
les are accompanied by actions that ensure
the participation and involvement of all de-
velopment sectors, with emphasis on local
ones to avoid asymmetries and therefore,
the risks related to security and human righ-
ts,” said Valige Tauabo .
The Governor of Cabo Delgado recalled
that the province has an enormous potential
of natural resources capable of generating
wealth and reversing the poverty scenario. VALIGE TAUABO .
For this reason, he defended that in the pro- Governor of Cabo Delgado
cess of natural resources exploration it is cru-
cial to safeguard the space for entrepreneurs
of the informal sector as a way to avoid situa-
tions that compromise security and Human
Rights. “That transparency and the partici-
pation of all in the development process be
safeguarded, with relative attention to local
actors”.
In his turn, the Secretary of State of Cabo
Delgado said that the launching of the Pro-
vincial Technical Working Group represen-
ts an opportunity to learn and conform the
reconstruction actions of Cabo Delgado to
the national and international legal norms
that aim to ensure justice and the respect for
Human Rights. António Supeia noted that in
addition to the implementation of the Re-
construction Plan in the areas affected by
terrorism, actions are underway to prepare
the conditions for the return of populations
to their areas of origin.
