Implementação do modelo da economia verde no desenvolvimento sustentável: caso de Moçambique, 2013 –2023

Abstract

The research analyzes the implementation of the green economy model in Mozambique from 2013 to 2023, focusing on its contribution to sustainable development. Through a qualitative and quantitative approach, the study identifies significant progress in the adoption of renewable energy, sustainable resource management, and the promotion of climate policies. However, it highlights that the process faces structural challenges, such as limited funding, weak institutional capacity, and low public awareness. To achieve this objective, a questionnaire was used, and based on data from public policies, institutional reports, and national initiatives, the study seeks to understand the extent to which the transition to environmentally sustainable economic practices has influenced economic growth, social inclusion, and the conservation of natural resources. Additionally, the MS Excel tool was applied to organize and analyze the data. The questionnaire was sent to a purposive sample of three (3) experts in the field of the green economy. The results of this questionnaire led to the selection of two communities as an incremental part of the sample, totaling 43 respondents. The findings suggest that, despite progress, it is necessary to strengthen governance mechanisms and mobilize more investments to ensure an effective and sustainable implementation of the green economy in Mozambique.
