The commitment was reinforced during the Initiative’s Plenary, held between March 24 and 26 in London, United Kingdom. The country’s participation in this international forum comes at a time when efforts are intensifying to align national practices with international human rights standards, particularly in contexts marked by extractive operations and security challenges.
The meeting brought together more than 150 participants, including representatives from governments, multinational companies, and civil society organizations, in a multi-sectoral dialogue about challenges and best practices in security management with respect for human rights. Mozambique was represented at the event by a delegation led by the Minister of Justice, Constitutional and Religious Affairs, Mateus Saize, and included representatives from various state institutions, namely the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of National Defence, the Institutional Communication Office of the Presidency of the Republic, as well as the Centre for Democracy and Human Rights (CDD), which serves as the initiative’s secretariat in Mozambique.
