4 Mozmbique Results-bsed COSOP REPUBLIC OF MOZAMBIQUE Results-bsed COSOP 1. The current RB-COSOP for the Republic of Mozmbique ws presented to IFAD Executive Bord in September Following three-phse 1 consulttive process, this RB-COSOP supports GoM s inititives to prevent nd mitigte poverty nd food insecurity in rurl Mozmbique. The current review follows the one crried on 29 October 2012 which results were subjected to extensive discussions with GoM gencies, beneficiries representtives, donor prtners, civil society s representtives s well s other relevnt stkeholders. A stkeholders meeting held on 5 December 2013 followed the sme consulttive process to ssess the relevnce nd gree on the wy forwrd of the current RB-COSOP. Bckground 2. This RB-COSOP mintins the strtegic focus of the previous one iming t fcilitting the integrtion of smll producers into profitble nd ccessible mrkets. This is fully consistent with GoM Poverty Reduction Action Pln (PARP, ) nd contribution to its primry gol to reduce poverty incidence from 54.7% in 2009 to 42% in 2014, with emphsis on promotion of "pro-poor" growth by boosting the productivity of the fmily sector nd diversifying the economy. The current RB-COSOP is bsed on three strtegic objectives (SO): (i) the ccess of smllholders nd rtisnl fishers to production fctors, technologies nd resources is incresed; (ii) the ccess nd prticiption of smllholders nd rtisnl fishers to mrkets tht cn bring them equitble shres of profit re incresed; nd (iii) the vilbility of nd ccess to pproprite nd sustinble finncil services in rurl res re incresed. Rurl mrkets nd finncil services s well s inclusive vlue chins re therefore promoted to ensure tht smllholders nd rtisnl fishers tke prt in the development of the whole chin to mximize their benefits. 3. Country Context. Although belonging to the lest developed countries group, Mozmbique is one of the fstest growing economies in Afric (round 7.3% nnul growths in GDP) minly driven by nturl resource exploittion, prticulrly, col production. Poverty, food nd nutrition insecurity re still importnt issues with considerble sptil nd socil vritions nd significnt incidence in rurl res. It is estimted tht 54% of the popultion still live below poverty level nd tht bout 35% of households re considered highly vulnerble to food insecurity. 4. GoM PARP nd the sectoril strtegic documents for griculture, rtisnl fisheries nd rurl finnce hve prioritized n incresing institutionl support to smllholders nd rtisnl fishers nd the need to trnsform their condition from subsistence to commercil ctivities. These documents highlighted the following priorities: i) increse of productivity through improved techniques nd provision of inputs; ii) construction of infrstructures in rurl res; 1 The first phse (My 2010) of the Consulttion Process ws built round the Country Progrmme Evlution (CPE); in the second phse (June-July 2010), design mission ws fielded to Mozmbique to crry out extensive consulttions; in the third nd lst phse (September-October 2010), consulttions were orgnized with the intend to receive stkeholders comments on the COSOP first drft. 4

5 Mozmbique Results-bsed COSOP iii) cretion of mrket informtion systems; iv) building vlue chins; v) empowerment of frmers nd fishers orgnistions. 5. IFAD Country Progrmme Context. IFAD portfolio in Mozmbique is composed of 6 ongoing progrmmes/projects: the Rurl Finnce Support Progrmme (PAFIR, closing on 31 Mrch 2014), PRONEA Support Project (PSP), the Rurl Mrkets Promotin project (PROMER), the Artisnl Fisheries Promotion Project (ProPESCA), the Vlue Chin Development Project for the Corridors of Limpopo nd Mputo (PROSUL) nd the Aquculture Promotion Project (PROAQUA). The totl cost of the investments is bout USD 217 million, including 106 million of IFAD funds nd the rest of co-finncing from, GoM, EU, AfDB, ASAP donors, etc. These investments represent direct enggement through GoM, to locl uthorities in ll provinces, NGOs nd other implementing prtners, supporting totl of 135,382 households of smllholders nd fishermen. 6. Built on recommendtions from CPE (2010), this RB-COSOP hs focused on: (i) mintining the current strtegic thrust to improve the mrket prticiption of smllholders nd rtisnl fishermen; (ii) incresing ttention to trgeting spects to ensure inclusion of disdvntged groups; (iii) developing more structured pproch for innovtion nd scling up; (iv) considering options to grdully ssign incresed implementtion responsibilities to privte nd civil society orgniztions; nd (v) strengthening IFAD country presence. The Annul Review Findings 7. The Evolving Sitution. The review confirmed tht the country efforts re now well engged in the cretion of fvourble environment tht is conductive to the implementtion of food nd nutrition security interventions s well s income generting ctivities in rurl res. Nevertheless, the implementtion of ctivities remins constrined due to: (i) wek institutionl cpcity t locl level; (ii) scrcity of skilled service providers in projects res; (iii) size of the country nd cost of trnsport. IFAD-supported inititives contribute to GoM efforts to overcome these constrins thnks to their bility to (i) invest on nd rech out the most needed people in the rurl res; (ii) lign nd influence policies bsed on lessons lernt; (iii) be concerned with institutionl synergies nd cpcity development of locl districts nd gencies; (iv) prticipte in the donors efforts to coordinte their interventions. IFAD Country Progrm Performnce 8. The size of the Mozmbique portfolio hs led the IFAD mngement tem to encourge country progrmme pproch. This ws done through mjor efforts to improve the integrity of the implementtion processes, procurement nd finncil mngement stremlined in Code of Prctice for project mngement common to ll the IFAD-supported inititives in Mozmbique. IFAD hs lso encourged the doption of the E-sistfe system, centrlized budgeting nd ccounting system imed t ensuring n efficient nd trnsprent use of public funds, by n incresing number of IFAD-supported progrmmes (PSP, ProPESCA, PROSUL, PROAQUA). Moreover, the IFAD mngement tem hs lso focused its efforts on improving common positions for ll projects in knowledge mngement/communiction s well s M&E. 5

6 Mozmbique Results-bsed COSOP 9. Results Frmework. One peculirity of IFAD progrm is its flexibility to ensure tht GoM led gencies develop nd djust interventions in response to ctul situtions nd evolving demnds. The RB-COSOP ws designed fter some projects were lredy being implemented (PAFIR, PSP, PROMER nd ProPESCA) while others were prepred fter its pprovl (PROSUL nd PROAQUA); thus, the rel chllenge is to ensure tht ll these projects re seen nd integrted s whole contributing ultimtely to chieve the plnned objectives. The following re the crucil chllenge tht the RB-COSOP is still fcing:. Internl COSOP consistency nd its subsequent lignment with individul projects. Some internl inconsistency hs been detected in terms of lignment of SO, Aim, Pthwys, Action nd Outcome. While some outcomes included in the COSOP (e.g. rice production) re not ddressed by ny of the progrmmes, others t project level re not included in the RB-COSOP (e.g. horticulture nd cssv in the PROSUL). On the other hnd, the progrmmes ddress some themtic res (such s lnd security nd tenure, climte chnge dpttion nturl resource mngement) tht re not specificlly ddressed in but contribute to the RB-COSOP. b. Anlyses of Project Implementtion nd Chllenge. While synergies exist between the extension project (PSP) nd the other two IFAD supported progrmmes (PROMER nd PROSUL) promoting vlue chins collbortions mong IFAD-supported inititives could be further developed. This requires better knowledge mngement within the country progrmme, in prticulr when the progrmmes implement ctivities in the sme geogrphicl re (e.g. between ProPESCA, PROMER nd PROSUL.) or when they implement similr ctivities in different provinces (e.g. vlue chin for PROMER nd PROSUL or nutrition for PROMER, PROPESCA nd PROAQUA). c. M&E, knowledge mngement nd lesson lerning. The progrmmes still fce issues in dt reporting nd RIMS complince, which do not llow them to use their M&E system s decision-mking tool. Moreover, there re still some inconsistencies between the progrmmes M&E nd the RB-COSOP Results Frmework. It is therefore importnt to ensure tht comprehensive M&E frmework enbling the progrmmes M&E systems to feed both GoM M&E system nd the RB-COSOP Results frmework is developed. The integrted pproch dopted to comply with the EU reporting system on the EU-funded ctivities (for ProPESCA, PROMER, PSP nd PROAQUA) will lso improve the M&E, KM nd lesson lerning pltform of the country progrmme. 10. Hrmoniztion nd prtnership with other donors. IFAD continues to be n ctive prtner of GoM/donor hrmoniztion nd coordintion ctivities in Mozmbique, nd GoM keeps IFAD updted on the implementtion of its PARP. IFAD is lso n ctive member of the Group of donors supporting the Agriculturl Sector nd Rurl Development (AGRED), nd s such hs contributed to the Interntionl Support for the Agriculture Investment Pln (PNISA) fully ligned to the CAADP objectives. 11. IFAD hs lso number of strtegic prtnerships with individul donors. With its disbursements being effective, OFID will continue to complement IFAD interventions in the re of infrstructure rehbilittion (feeder rods, storge fcilities, etc.) nd mintennce for 6

7 Mozmbique Results-bsed COSOP ProPESCA. Moreover, strong prtnership hs been estblished with the two other Rome-bsed gencies (FAO nd WFP) in the frmework of the EU-funded Millennium Development Gol C1 Progrmme. This prtnership hs llowed four of IFAD-supported progrmmes to receive supplementry finncing from the EU to scle up their ctivities in the res of food security, development of vlue chin, strengthening of frmers orgniztions, ccess to rurl finnce services, nutrition s well s knowledge mngement. Furthermore, IFAD prtnered with the Belgium Fund for Food Security to improve the livelihoods of rtisnl fishing communities by improving their food security (through CHAPANI) nd strengthening their security over nd mngement of nturl resources (through PRODIRPA). 12. IFAD lloction. Due to the lrge size of the current IFAD portfolio in Mozmbique, GoM would like to ensure chievement of the RB-COSOP SOs nd hs requested tht the PBAS lloction for of USD 38.5 million focus on consolidting the current investments:. With the closing of PAFIR, the country progrmme should ensure tht ech of the ongoing projects hving n ccess to rurl finnce services component tke into considertion PAFIR s lessons lernt to not replicte the sme mistkes thn PAFIR nd rther scle up the good experiences. b. Together with the enhnced support to rurl finncil services, the on-going projects should ttch more ttention to nutrition security, dpttion to climte chnge (to strengthen smllholders nd fishermen resilience). c. Both PROMER nd ProPESCA should benefit from these recommendtions by bsorbing the PBAS lloction. The mid-term review of PROMER will serve s bse to tke into considertion this dditionl finncing, while GoM will propose the pln to incorporte such recommendtion in ProPESCA. These dditionl finncing will be submitted to the IFAD EB in April nd September 2015 fter being subjected to the stndrd IFAD internl control processes. 13. Conclusion. The ssumption nd rtionle supporting the RB-COSOP re still vlid, but some risks which could limit its progress remin if concrete ctions re not tken to revert the current trend of progrmme implementtion. 14. The comprtive dvntges of IFAD re bsed on: its understnding of the grss root orgniztions; its knowledge of the difficulties of the most vulnerble people; its cpcity to develop comprehensive pproches. The key element is the cretion of rurl ssocitions nd the orgniztion iming t: (i) their grdution towrds being economic ctors nd therefore contributing to their sustinbility (they were non-existent in the fisheries sector); (ii) promotion of the new lws on registering producers ssocitions; (iii) improvement of svings nd credit groups. 15. Following GoM s request, IFAD is llocting resources to ddress the RB-COSOP s three strtegic objectives s wy to: further develop the lredy strted ctions; stimulte greter impct; support institutionl empowerment; promote lerning nd shring of lessons nd innovtions. Such pproch is often dopted by relying on existing ntionl institutions, thus, contributing to sustinbility nd lignment. 7
