Seeking refuge in one’s own country: Mozambique
Insecurity phenomena set in in Cabo Delgado, Mozambique, in October 2017 and rose dramatically in 2020; the U.N. estimates that 744,949 people have had to flee their homes to seek refuge elsewhere. Officially known as “internally displaced persons”,these are Mozambicans forced to migrate within their own country. CUAMM works to provide them with health care, supporting a hosting model that is integrated into local communities.
