A percepção e as estratégias de alívio à pobreza: o caso da localidade de Malua, distrito de Alto Molócuè, 1994 – 2000

Abstract

The failure of development programs and projects in Mozambique, leads to the questioning of the rural development process where we find a diversity of actors and of logic and strategies of relief. The present work seeks to analyze poverty as it is conceived and understood. Strategies are also proposed for their relief. Thus, the survey results corroborated the working hypotheses to a large extent. We found that policies to alleviate this phenomenon do not include aspects such as its conception and perception at the local level, among other factors. In this way of conceiving these adopted policies, they are often divergent with expected results. In this context, taking this set of elements, we find that the big problem lies in the lack of infrastructure that conditions the entire marketing process where its absence discourages the increase in the production of income products that contribute in general to the development process. local. The work presents the following aspects: in its first chapter it presents an introduction on the situation of poverty in general, objectives, justification of the theme, the hypotheses of work and the geographical location of the district under study. In the second chapter we theorize the problem highlighting the basic concepts on which we do the work. In the third chapter we present the results of the research. In the fourth chapter we present relief strategies from a general and specific point of view and some aspects that we consider important for poverty alleviation. Finally, we present some final considerations.
