Kenmare Moma Development Association

INTRODUCTION
A Catalyst for 
Positive Social 
and Economic 
Change

Who we are
The Kenmare Moma Development Association (KMAD) 
is a not-for-profit organisation, established in 2004, 
to implement development programmes in the Moma 
Mine’s host communities. The Moma Titanium Minerals 
Mine is owned and operated by Kenmare Resources 
plc and located in north-east Mozambique.

What we do
KMAD aspires to be a catalyst for positive social and 
economic change in the mine’s host communities. The 
focus of our work is framed by our four key strategic 
pillars: livelihoods and economic development, 
education, healthcare and water and sanitation.

How we do it
KMAD is run by an independent team, responsible 
for the day-to-day management of activities, with 
oversight provided by the KMAD General Assembly. 
Funding is primarily provided by Kenmare, augmented 
by contributions from third parties. Development 
programmes support small businesses, enhance 
healthcare provision, and increase access to education. 
KMAD also partners with specialist, and where possible 
local, NGOs to help implement these projects.

KMAD’S  
CORE VALUES

Participation 
Activities are prioritised based 
on local needs, as identified by 
community members, and only 
those development initiatives 
with active local participation 
are supported by KMAD.

Sustainability
Investment in building skills and 
capacity will accompany any 
projects supported by KMAD 
to ensure their viability and only 
those initiatives with strong 
potential for sustainability are 
supported.

Equality
All people and parts of the 
community have the same 
rights and are treated equally. 
KMAD particularly promotes 
the involvement of women in all 
activities to achieve this aim.

Efficiency
KMAD aims to maximise the 
local benefits of resources, 
leveraging the Mine’s 
infrastructure rather than 
setting up parallel systems 
and evaluation processes to 
measure improvement and 
effectiveness.

Integrity, honesty,  
and transparency
KMAD is open about the way 
it allocates and uses resources 
and its dealings with all its 
partners and stakeholders.

KMAD’S

In January 2022, the Larde and Moma Districts were hit by tropical Storm 
Ana, which caused extensive damage to infrastructure such as houses and 
schools as well as the Mititicoma Health Centre, including the maternity 
facilities, the pharmacy, external consultations block, paediatrics, and the 
health technicians’ accommodation in Topuito. KMAD immediately provided 
funds to respond to the emergency and repaired the four damaged schools 
and Topuito Health Centre. 

Seven months after the storm, KMAD handed over the Mititicoma health centre 
with all the repairs completed. The Director of Health, Mr. Narciso Sandulane, 
highlighted the impact of the devastation throughout the province of Nampula 
and in Topuito, and how KMAD’s extensive support had played a critical role in 
helping health services recover.

ACTIVITIES
LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 

KMAD is committed to creating employment 
opportunities for local people that deliver 
sustainable economic growth, while not 
harming the environment. This includes 
supporting income-generating initiatives 
such as poultry farms, sewing projects, and 
community shops. KMAD also supports 
capacity development, for example 
transferring new skills and knowledge to local 
farmers to help them increase the agricultural 
productivity of their land. The sustainability of 
proposed businesses is assessed by a forum 
of local leaders and KMAD representatives. 

KMAD also funds business projects to build 
the capacity of local suppliers to supply 
the Mine. This allows host communities to 
maximise the economic opportunities that 
arise from the presence of the Mine. 

Both types of business funding include 
training in commerce and management for 
the business owners, as well as technical 
skills, where required. Continuous monitoring 
and support are provided even after the loan 
has been repaid. 

In 2022, KMAD provided 4.8 million Mts 
($76,000) in interest-free loans to 23 new 
micro-businesses across the Namalope, 
Pilivili and Mpaco areas (out of a total of 
191 proposals received) including two 
projects from 2021 and three projects for 
vulnerable families. The total number of 
income generating projects now supported 
by KMAD is 89, with an additional five 
livelihood projects for Vulnerable People, 
who are not obliged to pay back the loan. 
These generated revenues of over 42 million 
Mts ($650,000) during the year. providing 
employment or income to 341 people. The 
additional five projects for VPs provided 
incomes to 20 people. The Namalope 
funded projects ranged from grocery and 
hardware shops to warehousing, mobile 
banking and laundry businesses. 

KMAD recognises that small businesses can 
face challenges from increased competition 
or poor management, and this can impact 
their ability to repay their loans.

2022 ACTIVITIES  |  LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED

The appendix sets out a full list of projects funded in Namalope and Pilivili, the value of loans provided, and their revenues to date. 

Native seeds in Topuito 

Machado Seleman Muhante, a married 28-year-old from 
Mecane in Moma District received financing from KMAD for a 
project to produce seedlings of native species.

Unable to find a job after completing his training in agricultural 
extension and development at the Ribaue Agrarian Institute, in 
2018 Machado came to Topuito looking for opportunities.  

He knew no one in Topuito and this was his first trip away from 
home, but he secured a six-month professional internship at 
Kenmare. This gave him the opportunity to learn about soil 
preparation, filling and arranging pots and mechanical seed 
treatment.

Machado learned that KMAD was financing new groups to 
produce seedlings and decided to form a group of 11 young 
people from the local community. The group was given training 
in seedling production from the Rehabilitation department in 
coordination with the Institute of Agrarian Research, as well as 
in business management. In 2020, they received financing of 
59,925 Mts to fund the construction of a greenhouse to start 
their seedling production.

There were some challenges at the beginning and some of 
the group left but after six months Machado succeeded in 
producing 2100 plants, which earned the group 157,500 Mts.

The Topuito youth nursery now delivers on average 4,000-6,000 seedlings/month in high season 
earning 450,000 Mts /month and 1,000-2,000 seedlings per month in the low season,  
earning 150,000 Mts /month.

Machado is still producing and selling the native seedlings to Kenmare and has fully refunded the initial loan. The native seedlings 
project has transformed his life, enabling him to build two houses and support both himself and his wife to enrol in university courses. 

Mualadi fish conservation project

Albertina João Amade, is married and 
30 years old and from Mualadi, and is a 
member of the local fishing association.

Mualadi, despite being one of the 
smallest villages in Pilivili, is in an area rich 
in marine resources with great potential 
for fishing businesses.

Like most residents, Albertina grew 
up in a family of fishermen. For many 
years they faced difficulties in preserving 
shellfish because the neighbourhood 

had no energy and they had to smoke 
or dry the products.  In the rainy season 
the seafood did not dry properly, and it 
ended up going off and they lost income.

In 2021, KMAD invested  
Mts 2,125,465 in the construction of 
a fish conservation and processing 
establishment in Mualadi, which is 
managed by the Fishermen’s Association. 
A solar panel system powers the freezers 
that preserve the shellfish. 

This project means Albertina’s family manages to store 100-150kg 
of shellfish/month in high season generating an estimated income 
of between 18,000-27,000 Mts and 20-50kg/month in low 
season earning an estimated additional 3,600-9,000 Mts /month. 
This income has improved her family’s diet, housing conditions and 
pays for school supplies for three cousins and a brother-in-law.

2022 ACTIVITIES  |  LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED

Conservation Agriculture 

Pilivili
Most resettled families have not started using their replacement land despite it 
being available for planting. Local authorities and KMAD team cross checked and 
confirmed that 77 out of 850 farmers that have received replacement farmland are 
currently using the land and technical assistance is being provided.

KMAD continued to support farmers by 
teaching them Conservation Agriculture 
(CA) methods to improve agricultural 
productivity. CA methods include 
mulching of biomass to create a fertiliser 
and protection from the natural elements, 
intercropping, improved diversity of 
crop types, crop spacing, and not 
clearing land through burning. They are 
also provided with good quality seeds 
to support the growth of resilient and 
healthy crops and are taught techniques 
to improve future quality. The contract 
with AENA (a Mozambican NGO) was 
renewed and slightly modified with the 
objective of continuing to support the 
farmers with production improvements 
in the rehabilitation areas and providing 
access to markets starting from 
December 2022 to October 2024.

Other agriculture and livelihood projects

Vegetable project
In 2022, local farmers continued 
providing vegetables and fruit for 
Kenmare’s kitchen. They produced 
18,043kg (2021: 24,250 kg) of 
vegetables and fruit in a total area of 
11 hectares (2021: 21.5 hectares). Of 
these 5,326 kg were sold to the Mine 
kitchen and 12,717 kg went to the local 
market. The farmers earned 1 million Mts 
($16,000) a reduction of 29% compared 
with 2021, this was due to crop damage 
from Storm Ana in January 2022.

In addition, fruit suppliers who are not 
direct KMAD beneficiaries supplied the 
Mine kitchen with a total of 18,273 kg of 
various vegetables and fruit, earning 1.1 
million Mts ($17,000) a reduction of 2% 
compared with 2021. This reduction was 
due to a fall in orders being placed by the 
camp catering company, IFS.

Vulnerable people
Across the Namalope, Pilivili and Mpaco 
areas, KMAD works to enable the 
inclusion of vulnerable people in the 
company’s community development 
projects. KMAD defines vulnerability 
as “people who by virtue of gender, 
ethnicity, age, physical or mental 
disability, economic disadvantage or 
social status may be more diversely 
affected by displacement than others 
and who may be limited in their ability to 
claim or take advantage of resettlement 
assistance and related development 
benefits.”

KMAD recognises that disadvantaged 
groups and individuals may find it 
more difficult to participate in formal 
engagement activities and benefit 
from the opportunities arising from 
the presence of Kenmare’s mining 
operations. KMAD has supported nearly 
300 vulnerable people in the Namalope 
area since 2007. Projects focus on 
income generation, support for a grocery 
shop, and support for elderly and female-
headed households through donations 
of chickens, participation in KMAD’s CA 
programme, and vegetable cultivation in 
nursery plots. 

Support for vulnerable people 
in Namalope 
Key projects in 2022 were fruit and 
vegetable production including the 
distribution of groundnuts, pigeon pea, 
and cowpea seeds to 166 vulnerable 
individuals, scholarships for dependents 
of vulnerable families and quarterly 
mobile check-ups for elderly and 
physically challenged people.

Support for vulnerable people 
in Pilivili and Mpaco
Support was provided for vulnerable 
people in Pilivili and Mpaco to produce 
vegetables, raise goats, as well as 
through finance for sewing and bakery 
projects. 

Conservation Agriculture farmer

Cristina Santos is a married small-scale  
farmer with 10 children from Mulimuni.

Like most Mozambicans, Cristina earns her living from traditional 
agriculture. She participated in the conservation agriculture programme 
for the first time in 2014 and then took on the role of programme 
facilitator, raising awareness and motivating other producers.

She started using the techniques in an area of 0.25 hectares and 
gradually increased this to 2.5 hectares for the 2021-2022 season. She 
now produces 12,500-15,000 kg of cassava, 500 to 900 kg of peanuts 
and 300 to 700 kg of beans. Half of the production is used by her 
family and the other half is sold to help buy school supplies, household 
products and farming materials and to pay five seasonal employees.

2022 ACTIVITIES  |  HEALTH DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED

HEALTHCARE DEVELOPMENT 

KMAD believes that ensuring healthy lives and promoting wellbeing at all ages 
is essential to sustainable development. As a result, KMAD provides funding for 
healthcare infrastructure improvements, such as building medical centres and 
pharmacies, donating ambulances, capacity development of medical staff, and 
community health awareness initiatives.

Community health centre in Mititicoma
The community health centre in 
Mititicoma, built and equipped by KMAD, 
has been in operation since 2013 and it 
serves people living close to Kenmare’s 
Namalope operations. In 2022 KMAD 
equipped the new laboratory and 
delivered it officially to communities and 
local authorities. In January, Storm Ana 
hit Topuito destroying the roof of the 
health centre and KMAD financed the 
repairs and health services are now back 
to normal. 

As part of the Namalope West 
resettlement plan the construction of a 
simplified maternity facility in Cotocuane 
was agreed with host communities. 
Work has started and is expected to be 
completed in 2023.

In 2022 just over 21,000 people attended 
the clinic’s outpatient department, 
57% of whom were women. This 
represented a 18% decrease in patient 
appointments compared to 2021. Of 
these consultations, over 8,500 were 
paediatric consultations, just over half of 
which were for girls. 

Malaria continued to be the primary 
reason for people seeking medical care. 
As set out below while there was a 57% 
decrease in total number of tests, there 
was an overall reduction in the number of 
people diagnosed with malaria compared 
with 2021.

Mother and child  
healthcare services
The services delivered by the mother and 
child healthcare services included pre-
natal consultations, family support, births, 
and midwife educational sessions in both 
the clinics and the villages. Women giving 
birth in the clinic decreased marginally 
in 2022 (682 vs 717). The number of 
home births increased to seven in 2022, 
compared to five in 2021. 

Community health  
awareness  
The community health programme 
promotes awareness of health issues, 
hygiene, and sanitation, primarily through 
group discussions. The main topics 
covered related to COVID-19 prevention, 
including the correct use of masks 
and improving sanitation; reducing the 
risk of diarrhoea; reducing the risk of 
contracting HIV and AIDS; and malaria 
prevention, with a focus on the correct 
use of mosquito nets and the need 
to follow the full malaria treatments 
prescribed. Other topics covered 
included tuberculosis, maternal health, 
nutrition and family planning.

In 2022, community volunteers and 
midwives conducted 31 (2021: 167) 
sessions in the health clinic and 2030 
(2021:800) sessions in the villages. 

The number sessions in the clinic 
reduced because the health centre was 
hit by Storm Ana. 1407 community 
members attended community health 
sessions in the clinic and 23,806 
attended sessions held in the villages.

Pilivili health centre
KMAD handed over the fully completed 
and equipped health centre in 2021 so 
2022 was its first full year of operation. 
The centre includes a maternity facility, a 
main treatment unit, two sizable houses 
for medical staff, and water and solar 
power supply for each building.  

In 2022 over 35,000 people attended 
the clinic’s outpatient department, 
59% of whom were women. Of these 
consultations, over 12,758 were 
paediatric consultations (6,449 female).

Staff professional development and funding
KMAD financed 27 nurses on nursing courses in 2019. Of 
these, 17 were employed by the district health authorities. 
In an MoU with the Government KMAD agreed to support

EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT 

School construction: Pilivili 
In 2022, KMAD financed the construction of new school blocks in Pilivili, Muolone and Epuire.

KMAD believes that ensuring all children have a good quality education is the 
foundation for sustainable development. As a result, KMAD funds the building of 
classrooms and other educational infrastructure, supports capacity development of 
teachers, and sponsors scholarships for further education that would not otherwise 
be accessible within the local area. 

Quality of primary  
education support  
KMAD contracted a Mozambican NGO, 
Facilidade, to undertake a programme to 
improve the quality of primary education 
in the locality. Facilidade is based in 
Nampula with experience in education 
methodologies to improve the quality of 
learning in schools. The programme was 
restarted after being suspended in 2020 
due to COVID and 760 (407 females) 
Grade 3 pupils attended. All seven 
primary schools in Topuito locality were 
part of the programme which combines 
creative, interactive and game-like 
activities with the objective of successful 
and rapid progress in reading, counting 
and calculation skills. The programme 
puts children into groups based on an 
assessment of their skills. Facilidade’s 
first assessment showed that of the 
760 Grade 3 students participating in 
the programme only 6.6% were able to 
read letters, words, simple paragraphs, 
and stories and on numeracy 29.6% 
recognised numbers of one or two 
algorithms and were able to complete 
addition, subtraction and multiplication.

By the end of the year the students 
were reassessed and showed the 
following improvements: 

Literacy:
6.6% increased to

33.6%

Numeracy:
29.6% increased to

47.1%

School construction: Pilivili 
In 2022, KMAD financed the construction 
of new school blocks in Pilivili, Muolone 
and Epuire.

School construction:  
Namalope
The additional new school block in 
Mititicoma was completed, equipped 
with 105 benches, and handed over to 
communities and authorities.

In Cabula, Mititicoma, Topuito and 
Nahocolo the old school blocks lost 
their roof during Storm Ana in January 
2022. KMAD repaired the damage, and 
the schools are back to their normal 
operation. Construction of phase three 
of the Namalope technical school was 
initiated.

As part of Namalope West resettlement 
plan the construction of school block 
in Cotocuane was agreed with host 
communities. The construction has 
started and is expected to be delivered 
in 2023.

In 2022, KMAD provided school materials 
to almost 6,000 pupils and 78 teachers 
in the Namalope area, a 13% increase 
over 2021. 

Pilivili primary school

Santos Marcelino Praça is a teacher and has been the Director of 
the Primary School of Pilivili since 2021.

In the past, students had to travel 
from Epuire to study at the Pilivili 
Primary School, which is 3km away. 
Due to population growth, the 
community built two rooms from 
locally available material (wattle 
and daub) and attached them to 
the primary school in Pilivili so their 
children could study here. In 2021 
these classrooms were categorised 
as the Epuire Primary School.

In accordance with the social projects 
agreed in the Pilivili Resettlement 
Plan, KMAD built a school block 
consisting of three classrooms, 
administration and toilets and 
desks for pupils and teachers and a 
meeting table for planning.

Santos Marcelino explained 
the benefits the improvements 
have brought. “The new block of 
classrooms brought comfort to 
students and teachers. In the old 
room, about 68 children sat on the 
floor and in winter we suffered from 
the lack of doors and windows. 
The teachers did not have their 
own room and the chalkboards 
were improvised. Without toilets, 
the children had to return to their 
homes to relieve themselves and 
the teachers always relied on the 
goodwill of neighbouring houses 
since they do not live in Epuire. The 
new reality has changed the school 
life of my students and teachers. 

We have three equipped rooms 
that comfortably fit 70 students/
room sitting at desks, not counting 
the administrative part where 
teachers have their own room and 
not only that, the Directorate and 
the pedagogical department have 
individual work offices, a place for 
files as well as a student office. The 
restrooms have improved attendance 
as no one has to go home to access 
the restroom. Before, we had ten 
dropouts per year, but with this new 
block we did not have more than five 
students drop out in this first year 
which makes me believe that the new 
block is an incentive for teachers and 
especially for students.”

Scholarships 

Namalope
In 2022 KMAD supported 135 existing 
scholarships and 78 (28 for vulnerable 
people) new scholarships for secondary 
school students.

The 143 students at Topuito Secondary 
School had a 93% pass rate, with the 
remainder either dropping out or failing 
the year. Of the 42 students at the 
Moma Secondary School, there was a 
95% pass rate with the remainder failing 
the year. From the 28 dependants of 
vulnerable families there was a 79% pass 
rate, one passed away, two failed and 
three dropped out.

In 2022, five students (two female) were 
selected for full university scholarships 
and five for partial scholarships. 

KMAD is currently sponsoring a total of 
15 students at university.

Pilivili and Mpago
In Pilivili and Mpaco 22 students 
(12 females) were selected for the 
secondary school scholarship, and they 
achieved a 100% pass rate.

Technical school
KMAD also supports skills transfer 
through vocational training, primarily 
through the Topuito Technical Training 
College. KMAD funded its construction 
and equipment between 2018-2020. The 
College is open to all, and students can 
obtain a Vocational Certificate-Level 5 
qualification in mechanical construction, 
electrics and industrial electronics, or civil 

WATER AND SANITATION 

KMAD is working as a catalyst to 
help solve these issues and find 
sustainable solutions. The local 
community Water Committees need 
to grow their capacity to manage 
charging community members for 
water consumption to finance the 
maintenance of water infrastructure.  

An extension to the water system 
in Tibane was initiated in 2021 was 
completed and delivered to community 
and authorities. 

In 2021 KMAD engaged SNV to review 
the water and sanitation infrastructure 
in Topuito. Based on the findings of 
their report KMAD contracted AMASI, 
an NGO based in Nampula with over 
ten years’ experience implementing 
water and sanitation programs in 
Mozambique with a special focus in 
Nampula province, to carry out the 
recommendations in 2023. 

Water is a new strategic pillar in the 
2022-2024 KMAD Strategic Plan and 
several programmes and initiatives aim 
to make progress with access to clean 
water.

Since its inception, KMAD has drilled 
30 boreholes, supplying clean water 
to approximately 24,000 people. 
Previously, local women and children 
had to travel long distances to collect 
water from local rivers. 

Sanitation is another important focus 
and KMAD has been working with the 
Mine’s host communities and local 
authorities to overcome sanitation-
related issues during recent years. 
One issue is the quality of water from 
some boreholes, which tests have 
shown to contain levels of nitrates, 
faecal coliforms, and iron levels above 
the World Health Organisation (WHO) 
recommended limits for human 
consumption. This is connected to 
the lack of latrines and the sanitation 
habits of local communities, a situation 
compounded by the increased 
population influx over the last 10 
years and lack of capacity among the 
local authorities to manage the water 
resources.

construction. In 2022, its fourth year of 
operation, the College had a total of 244 
students enrolled, 34% of whom were 
girls. 

The construction of a male boarding 
school, soccer field and two houses for 
technical school teachers was started in 
2022 and is expected to be delivered in 
the first term of 2023.

Sports and culture

Namalope
Soccer equipment was distributed to 
26 teams (12 female) that are involved 
in the local championship. Prizes were 
given to the first three male and female 
winners.  Support was also given to 
the Larde District soccer championship 
along with prizes for cultural and sports 
prizes at secondary school level. Soccer 
uninforms and socks were distributed 
to five (four from Pilivili and one from 
Mpuitine) teams that are involved in the 
district championship.

Tibane water access

Matina Assane Mussevele, 38 years old, is 
the mother of six children and was born and 
raised in Tibane town, Topuito locality.

Matina says that before the 
installation of the water supply 
system in the neighbourhood of 
Tibane Expansion, she travelled 
approximately 1.5 km every day to 
draw water from the traditional well 
located near the swamp. The wait 
at the traditional well could be more 
than five hours due to the queue 
or if the well was recharging slowly. 
She needed a lot of water for her 
daily tasks, but only managed to 
carry a maximum of 40 litres per day 
at times when the well had water. It 
was cloudy, smelly and in the rainy 
season it caused illnesses such as 
diarrhoea and stomach problems.

Now the neighbourhood has a 
water supply system built by KMAD, 
which means Matina does not need 
to be far from the house for long 
periods of time as there is clean 
and healthy water at the agreed 

hours from 6-8 am and from 3-6 
pm. Matina belongs to the System 
Management Committee group 
and, among other tasks, this body 
requires the community to pay 
a monthly fee of 30.00 Mts per 
family. This is used for the purchase 
of Credilec (electricity), system 
maintenance and the remainder is 
saved by the committee.

“On behalf of the entire community 
of Tibane Expansion, I am 
immensely grateful to KMAD for 
having minimised the suffering, 
especially for women, caused by the 
previous problem of time, distance, 
quantity and quality of water. I hope 
that KMAD continues investing in 
high impact projects such as this 
one.”

Pilivili  
The Mpuitine borehole is still to be finalised. 
The assessment shows that the best option 
is to transform the wells into a small water 
system. The drawings were approved by 
the local authorities and the project is being 
executed. 

The Nampeia borehole was finalised and 
delivered to community and authorities. 

The Pilivili water system is essentially 
complete, and delivery is scheduled for 
January 2023. The contract for a water 
system in Muolone has been finalised. 

The rehabilitation of Epuire water system 
was not completed because communities 
have changed their request to manual 
boreholes. A new contractor is conducting 
geophysical studies for the drilling of these 
boreholes.

KMAD  Annual Report 2022KMAD  Annual Report 2022CHALLENGES FACED DURING  
2022 ACTIVITY PLAN

The main challenges were principally related to difficulties in shortlisting 
reliable contractors who can execute water system projects, causing 
delays in their implementation. Storm Ana and cyclone Gombe affected 
farmers’ production, and destroyed health and education infrastructure 
as well as the access from Nampula to the site causing delays to the 
construction work as most materials come from there.

APPENDIX

Summary of activities implemented
The following table provides detailed information regarding the implementation status of KMAD’s community projects during 2022. 

1. Livelihoods and economic development

1.1 Funding income generating projects

CHALLENGES FACED DURING 2022 ACTIVITY PLAN - CONTINUED

Six businesses completed their loan repayments from previous 
years, namely: two community nurseries in Topuito, one 
community nursery in Mititicoma, one in Mulimuni B and one in 
Larde as well as the Mititicoma hardware store.

Two businesses from previous years closed namely: goat 
selling and second-hand clothing from Nataka (both due to bad 
management). This led to the writing off 216,000 Mts ($3,400) 
in loans.

Non-operational small business owners, although having 
closed the businesses that were financed, are still making their 
loan repayments (Naholoco carpentry, eggs, hardware store 
(concluded), and Topuito fish and prawns processing).

Outstanding loans with active businesses at the end of 2022 
stood at 13 million Mts.

Summary of economic development and 
livelihoods projects
In general, the small businesses performed well, but there were 
several Covid related challenges.

Broiler project
The poultry projects performed well compared to previous years 
as chicks were provided on time by the supplier and as the 
growth of small bars and restaurants is increasing the demand 
for chickens in Topuito.  As a result, the broiler projects (Topuito, 

Naholoco and Mititicoma) managed to do four planned cycles 
during the year. In 2022 Topuito sold 3,027 chickens yielding 
a total of 760,000 MTs (US$12,000), Naholoco 1,095 yielding 
375,000 ($5,900) Mititicoma sold 1,806 earning 608,000MTs, 
(US$ 9600). representing a 492% increase compared with 
broiler project incomes in 2021.  Nataka have made a request 
to change the business as after losing a large portion of chicks 
during transportation in 2021, meaning the owner was not able 
to continue the business. The request to change the business 
under assessment. 

Sewing project
The sewing projects are still the most stable of the projects and 
in 2022 the groups produced a total of 87,102 items of which 
376 were school uniforms for KMAD scholars and the remainder 
were calico bags and embroidered t-shirts yielding 3.7 million 
Mts ($58,000), a reduction of 9% compared with 2021 (2021:   
4 million Mts  ($63,000)

Shops and other income generating projects
The performance of the grocery shops varied from village to 
village but in general they are performing well. The bakery in 
Mititicomais in operation although the refurbishment is still to 
be finalised. The native seed suppliers are supplying casuarina 
saplings.  The guest house at Mititicomawas fully booked over 
the year, providing accommodation to Kenmare contractors.

At the beginning of 2022 there were a total of 10. 9 million Mts 
in outstanding loans to small businesses. A further 3.7 million 
Mts ($59,000) was invested in new businesses in 2022, of 
which 210,000 Mts ($3,300) were provided by the business 
owners and 3.5 million Mts ($56,000) by KMAD. In total there 
are 66 operational projects in Namalope directly benefitting a 
total 283 people (90 women). KMAD received repayments of 
1.6 million Mts ($25,000), with 1.4million Mts ($22,000) being 
for loans from previous years and 194,000 Mts ($3,000) from

Improved yields by farmers

Outcome and comments:
For the season 2021-2022, farmers bought 600kg of seeds and KMAD topped this up with 3,545 kg of seeds for a variety of 
crops. 

Based on the final report provided by AENA and the detailed audit carried out on the conservation agriculture project, the 
number of beneficiaries was 507 in an area of 206.9 hectares (verified by a team of KMAD and AENA undertaking field visits). 
The number of participants is less than reported in 2021 due to a duplication of registrations verified during the auditing 
by the KMAD and AENA team. Yield measurements for groundnuts, cowpeas and jugo beans crops were carried out in all 
communities, using 157 farmers as samples (each farmer with two plots with dimensions of 5m*5m corresponding to 50m2). 
On average the farmers produced 700kg/hectare of groundnut, 567kg/hectare for cowpeas. According to the 2020 Relatório 
do Inquérito Agrícola Integrado (Integrated Agricultural Survey Report), the average yield of groundnut and cowpea in small 
farmers is around 619kg/ha and 427kg/ha, respectively. The data shown on the yield in the fields of small farmers in Topuito 
showed an average increase for peanut and cowpea crops in the order of 13% and 32% respectively compared to standard 
average small farmer yields. This result is due to the adoption of two principles of conservation agriculture namely: minimum 
tillage and intercropping/crop rotation. 

In summary, the 2021/2022 crop production season produced a total of 603,570kgs vs 1,951,443 during last season, which 
represents a decrease of about 69% due to cyclones Ana and Gombe which destroyed many of the crops planted.

In 2022, the farmers continued providing vegetables and fruits for Kenmare’s kitchen. They produced 18,043 (2021: 24,250kg) 
of vegetables and fruit in a total area of 11 hectares (2021: 21.5 hectares). Of these 5,326.50kg were sold to the mine kitchen 
and 12,717kg sold to the local market. The farmers earnt a total of 1 million Mts (US$ 16,000) a reduction of 29% compared 
with 2021. 

In addition, fruit suppliers who are not direct KMAD beneficiaries supplied the mine kitchen with a total of 18,273 kg of various 
vegetables and fruits, earning 1.1 million Mts (US$ 17,000) a reduction of 2% compared to 2021. This reduction was due to a 
fall in orders being placed by the camp catering company, IFS.

Headed Households (small 
businesses, vegetables) and 
Support to elderly and physically 
challenged groups.

Outcome and comments:
166 vulnerable families were participating in the CA project at year-end. 498 kg of seeds were distributed for the 2021/2022 
production season. 22.1 ha was cultivated in CA as a result, 7ha planted with approximately 8,500kg of groundnut and 
cowpeas. The remaining 15ha was planted with cassava which will only be harvested in 2023.

A goat project was identified but families advised they would not able to implement it as the goats would be stolen by 
neighbouring communities.  A business plan for a tailoring project was submitted from Mulimuni but this project has been 
done in the past and there were no clients with financial capacity to pay for the services so this project will not be financed. 
The grocery shop in Cabula and Tibane broiler project generated revenues of 420,000 ($6,600 ) with 16,500Mts ($300) paid in 
salaries and Mzn 204,000 ($3,200 ) profit.  Although the Tibane broiler project generated income for eight months it was closed 
due to bad management. From the Mzn 150.000 invested, Mzn 92,000 was recovered.

In 2022 there were registered 411 new births of chickens, 309 deaths, 1,001 were eaten and 53 sold to buy other products

families have not been following the principles sustaining a viable brood of chickens by consuming too many before they could 
breed. For these reasons KMAD is not increasing the number of beneficiaries in this initiative.

Outcome and comments:
KMAD contracted a Mozambican NGO, Facilidade, to undertake a programme to improve the quality of primary education in 
the locality. Facilidade is an organisation based in Nampula with experience in education methodologies to improve the quality 
of learning in schools. The programme was restarted after being suspended in 2020 due to COVID and 760 (407 females) 
grade 3 pupils attended. All seven primary schools were part of the programme which combines creative, interactive, and 
game-like activities with the objective of a successful and rapid progression of reading, counting and calculation skills. The 
programme puts children into groups based on competency. To do that Facilidade assessed the reading, calculation and 
writing skills of each child to determine which level a child should be integrated into. On literacy the assessment determines if 
the child is capable of reading letters, words, simple paragraphs, or stories and on numeracy if the child recognises numbers 
of one or two algorithms or if they can do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations. Facilidade’s first 
assessment showed that of the 760 grade 3 students participating in the programme only 6.6% were able to read letters, 
words, simple paragraphs, and stories and on numeracy 29.6 % recognised numbers of one or two algorithms and were 
also able to complete addition, subtraction and multiplication. By the end of the year the students were reassessed, and the 
following improvement results were found:

•  Literacy: 6.6% increased to 33.6%

•  Numeracy: 29.6% increased to 47.1%

Outcome and comments:
Forms were distributed and 104 (11 females) project proposals 
were received.

10 (one female) projects were selected.

Eight out of 10 were financed and are operational:

•  Hardware store in Pilivili, 

•  Selling of clothes in Epuire, 

•  Motorbike spare part shop and Mobile bank in Muolone,

•  Hardware store and sale of plastic utilities in Namaize,

•  Grocery shop and fishing material shop in Mpuitine. 

A bakery in Pilivili is under construction. A vegetable project 
in Epuire was cancelled because the proponent provided 
false information (which disqualifies the project). The individual 
committed to putting some of his money into the project, then 
falsely tried to claim he had given it to KMAD officials who had 
stolen it, before admitting this was not the case.

10 beneficiaries were trained in business management.

The Namaize (2020 project) mobile bank is still waiting for 
Vodacom to finalise their registering process as they have 

temporarily suspended the registering of new agents.

The horticulture project in Mpuitine (2021) was cancelled because 
no document was provided by authorities stating that the 
business can take place, as the location indicated was within 
another’s land licence area. 

Three native seed groups from Pilivili, Epuire and Muolone 
were identified, trained in seedling production and business 
management. They expect to be financed and operate in 2023.

Mpuitine hardware store was closed due to bad management and 
conflict between the members.

At the beginning of 2022 there were 7.4 million Mts ($116,000) in 
outstanding loans to 16 small businesses in Pilivili and Mpago. A 
further 1.7 million Mts ($27,000) was invested in the two localities, 
of which 75,000Mts ($1,200) was provided by the business 
owners and Mts 1.625 million ($25,800) by KMAD. These projects 
are benefitting a total of 58 people (eight females). KMAD received 
repayments of 1.25 million Mts ($19,500)

Outstanding loans with active businesses in Pilivili and Mpaco at 
the end of 2022 stood at Mts 7.85 million Mts ($124,000)
