Understanding immediate impacts of Covid-19 on coastal communities in Mozambique

The project aims to fill critical gaps in our understanding of the socioeconomic and environmental impacts of Covid-19 on coastal communities in northern Mozambique. The data will inform development of coping mechanisms for communities, increase resilience to shocks and support recommendations for scalable community-based solutions. We will focus on enhancing knowledge around key pillars including governance and co-management of marine resources, community behaviour and biological impact on fisheries, to inform the knowledge base and strategies for long term community resilience.
