MICAIA Foundation

MICAIA Foundation is a non-profit organization registered in Mozambique with statutes approved by the Council of Ministers of Mozambique.

The MICAIA Foundation works in Manica Province and Maputo Province of Mozambique to help people achieve local prosperity in a sustainable world.

The Foundation has a board of thirteen who represent specialist areas of knowledge including forestry, enterprise development, rural finance, and agriculture. The Foundation’s President is Dr Teresa Alves, a Mozambican forestry expert.

MICAIA Foundation’s programmes follow the priorities laid out in the MICAIA Manifesto under our three core themes:

• Strengthening local economies
• Working with people to build healthy, vibrant communities
• Building consensus for social and economic change

In all of MICAIA’s work, we place the emphasis on creating new economic, social and cultural opportunities for younger people. In addition to the core programmes of MICAIA Foundation, MICAIA is developing a set of specifically youth-focused programmes that will help younger people take up new opportunities.
