Projects

  1. Grant to World Health Organization (WHO) for improving public health systems through climate resilience in Mozambique, 2018

    Beneficiary: World Health Organization (WHO) Budget: 2.000.000 euros Duration: 2018 - 2021 The disease burden in Mozambique is characterized by a large proportion of climate-sensitive diseases. Malaria (6.2 million cases in 2016) and HIV / AIDS (13.2% prevalence in 2015) make up more than half of the mortality in Mozambique. Recurrent epidemics of climate-sensitive diseases (such as cholera, measles, dengue fever, chikungunya, West Nile and yellow fever) put pressure on the already over-health system.
