UNFPA Mozambique’s 2021 Annual Report, Reaching Those Furthest Behind, outlines the agency’s achievements and thematic priorities under the last year of its ninth country program (2017 - 2021).

Through the generous support of its funding partners, UNFPA helped to meet nearly half of the contraceptive needs of the country, provide remote health and protection services to 80,000 people, engage 1,000 community leaders to fight child marriage, mentor 90,000 adolescent girls on sexual and reproductive health, train nearly 2,000 Government staff on statistical literacy and gender data, and invest in innovative initiatives such as a ride-hailing mobile platform for pregnant women.

As evidenced in the report, 2021 registered many accomplishments in spite of the challenges faced through the COVID-19 pandemic, a conflict in the north of the country and devastating climactic events.

UNFPA Mozambique worked strategically and swiftly with partners to reach those furthest behind, to better ensure that every woman, girl, and young person can lead safe and healthy lives and achieve the full enjoyment of their individual rights.
