Análise do contributo da educação ambiental no processo de avaliação de impacto ambiental em projectos da Província de Maputo

Abstract

This Report is part of the academic internship at the Maputo Provincial Environmental Service, for a period of six (6) months. The intern analysed several documents submitted to the Maputo Provincial Environmental Service for the purposes of, among others, licensing for activities such as sand mining with a mining certificate and the implementation and operation of fuel stations. Under the guidance of the supervisor, she carried out pre-assessment visits to areas where some projects would be installed and implemented, and already existing projects were also audited to verify their compliance. These visits were carried out at the facilities of a Fuel Station in Muntanhana, the objective of which was, in addition to auditing, to raise awareness among the respective workers about environmental conservation. Visiting that location allowed her to see that there was a failure to comply with the recommendations set forth by the Environmental Service, as the entity responsible for licensing at provincial level, with cases of inadequate disposal of solid waste being prevalent, for example. In light of these findings, the intern felt the need to produce an intervention project with a view to raising awareness among the proponents and their employees about the importance of complying with the recommendations made by the SPA.
