Evidence snapshot for Mozambique
Mozambique's parliament achieved one of Sub-Saharan Africa's highest women's representation rates — 43.2% by 2024, up from 26% in 1994 — through FRELIMO's voluntary 40% zebra-list quota. Financial inclusion expanded significantly via M-Pesa's mobile money platform, which grew from 1.9 million active users to 6 million between 2018–2022, though only ~40% of adults hold a mobile money account compared to a 64% Sub-Saharan Africa average. On climate and forest conservation, Mozambique's Zambezia REDD+ programme received the world's first FCPF emission-reduction payment of US$6.4 million in October 2021, with 70% of proceeds allocated to local communities, and the Kukumuty Miombo woodland restoration project became the first globally certified under Plan Vivo's 2024 standard, guaranteeing communities at least 60% of carbon-credit revenue.
