1 General Presentation of ama History Objectives Areas Strategies - Projects
2 Welcome to ama! The Environmental NGO associação do meio ambiente (ama) was founded in 1990 in the Capital of the most northern Province of Mozambique, Cabo Delgado, by a group of young People with special interest in the conservation of natural resources. Vision: A protected and conserved natural environment by the sustainable use of natural resources, for the well being of the communities. Since then ama grew and developed into a major local actor in strengthening and sensitizing local communities regarding a sustainable management of nature and its resources. Basic principles of ama: honesty and respect, valorization of local potential and knowledge and gender equality. General Presentation of ama 2
3 Objectives & Areas of Action Specific Objectives Use of adequate and sustainable practices for the exploration of natural resources Strategic areas of ama Proper application and implementation of public policies and laws Strengthened mechanisms of community participation and inclusion Environmental education for reducing environmental and health risks Organizational and institutional development within ama General Presentation of ama 3
4 The People at ama Most of the work within ama is carried out by the approximately 50 employees which are highly qualified and experienced in their specific area. The administrative team is lead by an Executive Coordinator and consists of three internal departments - Human Resources, Finance and Communication. The organization has more than seventy members which represent the general assembly, and together with the direction and the financial organ constitute the institutional basis of ama. The project structure includes regional and project coordinators, project officials and technical staff together with a vast extension system supported by local activists and animators in the different fields of activity. Additionally the management team is supported by consultants in specific areas. General Presentation of ama 4
5 Geographical Areas & Partnerships The activities of ama are mainly focused on the districts of the northern province of Mozambique, Cabo Delgado. Since 2005 ama forms part of different national and international partnerships with organizations such as: - HELVETAS-SWISS INTERCOOPERATION - INTERMON OXFAM - ACTION AID - WWF MOÇAMBIQUE - AUSTRAL-COWI - ITC (KPMG) - DIAKONIA - DFE-DANISH FOREST EXTENSION - HORIZONT MS-MOÇAMBIQUE - JUSTIÇA AMBIENTAL - Cooperação Francesa - CIP - BIOCLIMATE - ZSL (Zoological Society London) General Presentation of ama 5
6 Cooperation & Development ama places high emphasis on its organizational and institutional development, on capacitating its human resources and on monitoring systems for guaranteeing more sustainability, autonomy and transparence. The active cooperation with other Civil Society Organizations and the establishment and support of platforms and networks is strongly promoted. Knowing that together we can achieve more, ama engages intensively and takes a leading role in the Thematic Group of Natural Resources and Environment of Cabo Delgado. The group mainly promotes activities to achieve and guarantee a proper implementation of legislation within the thematic area. General Presentation of ama 6
7 Sustainable Use of Natural Resources ama develops activities which aim to reduce the negative impact on the environment and natural resources by promoting ways of sustainable management and alternative income. Marine Resources Special focus is put on the creation and the institutional strengthening of community based organizations such as fisher-committees or committees for natural resources. These civil society organizations are supported by ama to play a more active role within their region, tax explorers in alignment with the legislation and protect their resources in designated areas. Project experiences with WWF, BIOCLIMATE and ZSL General Presentation of ama 7
8 Forest Resources A wide range of good practice Examples in this area have been developed in the FEFA project (Extensão Florestal Para Camponeses de Ancuabe) financed by the (DFE) Danish Forest Extension from 2007 to Especially forest resources are being explored in an accelerated pace in the northern region. The promotion of sustainable practices in this area forms an strategically important part of the activities within ama. Besides experiencing and implementing sustainable Forest, Agriculture and Agro- Forestry techniques which are adapted to the local circumstances again one main objective is that the local communities achieve owner-ship and control over their natural resources and exert their rights. General Presentation of ama 8
9 Food Security by Conservation Agriculture As an environmental organization, ama works with conservation agriculture and agro-forest systems for food security. ama establishes fields and facilities for demonstration of the agro-forest and conservation systems developed, where the results of various successful interventions and innovations become visible for the local population. Project examples: SAAN (Segurança Alimentar e Agro Negócios) with Helvetas MVS (Meios de Vida Sustentáveis) with Intermon Oxfam FEFA with the DFE General Presentation of ama 9
10 Mineral Resources and Hydrocarbons ama s first action in this new area consists of monitoring the activities of the exploring companies in relation to their contracts, corporate plans, communications, promises and the existing national laws. Mozambique in general, and specifically the northern region, is extremely rich in mineral resources and precious stones, and a large reserve of natural gas has been found recently. The search processes and the future exploration by national and international co operations will have major impacts on the environment and the communities. Simultaneously ama develops actions for collecting the worries, problems and needs of the local communities in connection with the exploration processes. A further step is to support the inclusion of the voice of the local Civil Society in the decision taking processes by active advocacy. General Presentation of ama 10
11 Community Participation The creation and mobilization of capacities within the Basic Community Organizations and their proper empowerment is one of the main objectives for ama. ama works on the integration of community concerns into the governmental plans through a rights based approach and the use of the national decentralization policy. ama facilitates the constitution of the basic community organizations, such as the CDCs (Community Development Committees), supports their regular meetings and the elaboration of annual development plans. ama provides Know-How and training in legislation, rights and decentralization and works together with all levels to achieve a good coordination and communication between different CDCs and the Conselhos Consultivos (Government Bodies on the District level). This also includes monitoring the activities and the functioning of these Government Bodies. Project experiences with HELVETAS and Action Aid. General Presentation of ama 11
