Utilização e desenvolvimento de recursos humanos nos programas de desmobilização e reintegração: estudo de caso - formas de sobreviência e expectativas de combatentes desmobilizados no distrito de Boane

Abstract

This paper presents a study on a recent part of the transition to peace in Mozambique, which concerns the process of demobilization and reintegration of combatants. It identifies the short, medium and long-term objectives of demobilization and reintegration and discusses the need and relevance of managing demobilized persons to achieve those objectives, highlighting education, training and employment as essential elements for the economic and social reintegration of this layer and, consequently, for the political stability and security of the country. It also explores the perspectives of the institutions involved in the implementation of reintegration programs, revealing the poverty of reports on the reintegration of demobilized combatants that focus only on the perspectives and public discourse of the institutions involved in the process: if the demobilization was completed in a practically exemplary manner, the reintegration of demobilized people into society, on the contrary, has raised numerous problems and remains a current issue. The work also argues that the coherence between research, the country's sustainable development and measures to solve the problem of demobilized people should be seen, today, in the more general picture of the problem of occupation, training and credit for all vulnerable chains in the country (TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
