Abstract:
This in an ethnomusicological study of choral performance in Maputo, the capital city of Mozambique. It includes a historical perspective over the last thirty years, and it analyzes the changes which took place in performance along with the political changes in this African country. The author studies the use of music for the purpose of creating a national identity. Makwayela, a characteristic kind of male choral performance which developed in Southern Mozambique, is used as a study case. Makwayela is described and framed within the range of expressive modes in Maputo. Its origins are discussed in the background of mining culture in Southern Africa, and its development is associated with recent social history in Mozambique, and particularly in Maputo.

Abstract:
En nous appuyant sur la sociolinguistique urbaine nous avons analysé l'écrit informel à Maputo (transports et commerces) et son appropriation orale. La description analytique de ce corpus (analyse de la forme, analyse de la réception de ces formes et du contenu) nous a permis de dégager les tendances qui en découlent. En effet, l'écrit informel neutralise les frontières géographiques et administratives et opèrent une déstructuration de l'espace. Les transports et les commerces informels sont un réservoir du patrimoine linguistique du pays et révèlent un fonctionnement social. L'écrit informel ne cherche pas à remplacer l'oral, au contraire il cherche à le consolider (on écrit comme on parle). Tout compte fait, la parole ou l'écrit vernaculaire y compris en portugais témoigne du pouvoir conquis par le peuple qui a su s'imposer et s'exposer dans l'espace urbain aussi bien au centre ville qu'en périphérie. L'écrit informel occupe une place symbolique, puisqu'il valorise le patrimoine linguistique du pays, la mémoire collective et la tradition. Précisons enfin que Maputo est une ville plurilingue (portugais, langues africaines et anglais). Ce plurilinguisme est visible et lisible dans le décor scriptural informel de la ville
We have analysedthe informal written word in Maputo (transport and shops) using the urban socio-linguistic approach. Through analytical description of this corpus, analysis of form, analysis of reception of these forms and their contents, we were able to draw certain conclusions. Notably, that the informal written word neutralises geographical and administrative boundaries and modifies the structure of space. Transport and informal commerce are wealth to draw on for the linguistic heritage of a country, and are a revelation of a function in society. The informal written word is not out to replace the spoken word, on the contrary it reinforces it rone writes as one speaks. In any case, the vernacular when written or spoken, even in Portuguese, is witness to the power of the people who have been able to impose and expose themselves in the urban area, as much in the centre of town as in the suburbs. The informal written word occupies a symbolic place as it highlights the linguistic heritage if the country and its' collective memory and traditions. Let us point out that Maputo is a multilingual city (Portuguese, African languages and English). This multilingual ism is visible and legible in the informal scriptural decor of the city

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Public Management))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2012.
One of the greatest problems Mozambique is currently facing is the increased involvement of sectors in producing large amounts of solid waste on a daily basis. These sectors are involved in activities that take place in homes, industry, mining, agriculture and commerce. As a result, this problem needs to be treated efficiently by the Municipality of Maputo. Solid waste produced each day in Maputo is not only an aesthetic problem but poses a threat to citizens' health and it damages the environment. With the production of large amounts of waste each day, the Municipality of Maputo is faced with an ineffective solid waste management system. This ineffectiveness is due to a number of reasons, which include lack of resources, inadequate or no staff training, poor management of solid waste by both the municipal and the government, inappropriate laws to regulate solid waste collection, poor control of such laws in terms of removal and disposal of the waste, using past colonial methods for dealing with solid waste and poor community involvement, The problem not only affects the Municipality of Maputo but it also affects both citizens and the environment. Ineffective solid waste management is linked to poor management, lack of resources, poor staff training, and unskilled public officials. The city gets dirtier as the amount of waste increases day by day, due to the fact that citizens living in rural areas have immigrated to the city looking for work after the civil war, which took place between 1977 and 1994. Emerging from a severely damaged war-torn economy, Mozambique is still in the process of reconstituting many of its public institutions. Communities, local government, industry, commerce, civil society, academics and religious organisations can no longer turn a blind eye to poor solid waste management. Instead, they need to join to fight against poor management of solid waste. The current situation demonstrates that too few individuals, non-profit organisations and private companies are involved in solid waste management activities. Effective solid waste management can only be effective if it engages all producers of waste and captures the policy strategies, planning and challenges of sustainable development.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Mopane woodlands are some of the most economically and ecologically important vegetation types of southern Africa, providing an array of services and products for sustaining livelihood of local communities in dry and low lying areas. Although Mopane woodlands, like other African savannas, have received attention in the last decades, few studies were carried out using an integrated approach that combines socio-economic and environmental considerations. The aim of this study was to document the impact of harvesting woody resources in order to recommend ways of meeting ecological and economic objectives for sustainable use of communal resources in a rural community in the Mahel area, Mozambique. This was achieved by looking at the pattern of species composition, resource availability and dynamics of the woody vegetation and how the woodland is used. The study found that woodland resources in the area have a promising potential. Local communities who also recognised the crucial importance of these resources for their livelihood corroborated this. Thus, conservation measures are needed because the current unsustainable utilisation of the resources may lead to degradation of the woodland resource base. The species richness and diversity of the vegetation appeared to be influenced by a number of ecological and anthropogenic factors, but soil characteristics are the most important determinant of distribution and composition of the Mopane and Acacia woodlands in Mahel. The harsh environmental conditions on hard clay soils lead to dominance of over 80% of the Mahel area by Colophospermum mopane. There was evidence of high variation of species richness per plot at a distance from the villages. On the other hand species diversity near the villages was higher because of human activities. Colophospermum mopane formed mono-specific stands far from the villages. One of the most important aspects of the study is the invaluable contribution of baseline information for long-term studies for biodiversity assessment and monitoring of vegetation changes caused by impact of harvesting in the Mopane woodland. The availability of woody resources in the Mahel area was higher in Mopane woodland (937 stems ha-I) than in Acacia woodland (271 stems ha -1). The population structure of most tree species was shown to be stable in Mopane woodland. Therefore, sustainable harvesting in the woodland for firewood, construction material and poles, other than charcoal production could be encouraged. The preference across use types and species depended mostly on availability of resources in the woodland. Colophospermum mopane was the species with highest multiple use, including for firewood, charcoal, construction material, fencing poles and edible caterpillars. Local people perceived that crop production was a more important source of benefits for their livelihoods than cattle farming, woodland use and cash income. Application of strategic management planning is crucial in the Mahel area. This will require a suitable zoning scheme for appropriate use of the woodland resources and conservation of the vegetation as a guarantee for sustainable development of the local communities.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Mopanie bosveld is een van die mees ekonomies en ekologies belangrike plantegroei tipes en voorsien 'n reeks dienste en produkte wat bydrae tot die lewensonderhoud van plaaslike gemeenskappe in die droeë en laagliggende dele van Suider Afrika. Alhoewel Mopanie bosveld, soos ook ander savanna tipes in Afrika, in die afgelope dekades aandag geniet het, is daar 'n tekort aan studies wat sosio-ekonomiese, sowel as omgewingsaspekte, integreer en aanspreek. Die doel van die studie was om die impak van oes en benutting van houtagtige hulpbronne te dokumenteer en sodoende aanbevelings te maak aangaande die ekologiese en ekonomiese aspekte van die volhoudbare benutting van gemeenskaplike hulpbronne in die Mahel gebied, Mosambiek. Dit is gedoen deur ondersoek in te stel na die patroon van spesie samestelling, die beskikbaarheid en gebruik van bosveld hulpbronne en die dinamiese prosesse van die houtagtige plantegroei. In die studie is gevind dat daar belowende potensiaal in die gebruik van die houtagtige hulpbronne in die studiegebied, opgesluit is. Die bevinding is bevestig deur die plaaslike gemeenskappe wat die belangrikheid van die hulpbronne in hul lewensonderhoud herken. In die lig van die huidige onvolhoudbare verbruik van die hulpbron, is maatreëls vir die bewaring hiervan nodig om moontlike oorbenutting van houtagtige hulpbronne te voorkom. Dit wil voorkom asof die spesierykheid en diversiteit deur 'n aantal antropogeniese faktore beinvloed word, maar grondeienskappe is die belangrikste faktor wat die verspreiding en samestelling van Mopanie en Akasia bosveld in die Mahel, bepaal. Die ongunstige omgewingstoestande op harde, klei grond, lei daartoe dat tot 80 % van die Mahel gedomineer word deur Colosphospermum mopane. Daar was verder aanduidings van hoër spesierykheid per plot soos daar van plaaslike nedersettings wegbeweeg word. Daar was egter 'n hoër spesiediversiteit nader aan nedersettings, as gevolg van menslike aktiwiteite. Daar was 'n tendens vir Colosphospermum mopane om mono-spesifieke opstande met groter afstand van nedersettings te vorm. Een van die mees belangrike aspekte van die studie is die bydrae wat dit lewer tot grondbeginsels vir langtermyn studies, wat fokus op die impak van menslike gebruik van Mopanie bosveld op die biodiversiteit en plantegroeisamestelling van die hulpbron. Die beskikbaarheid van houtagtige hulpbronne was hoër in die Mahel Mopanie bosveld (937 stamme ha-I) as in Akasia bosveld (271 stamme ha-I). Daar is gevind dat die populasiestruktuur, sowel as regenerasie van die populasie, stabiel is in Mopanie bosveld. Derhalwe kan benutting van die bosveld vir vuurmaakhout (uitsluitende charcoal) en boumateriaal aangemoedig word. Die voorkeur van sekere spesies en aanwending vir sekere gebruike het meestal afgehang van die beskikbaarheid van die verkillende hulpbronne in die bosveld. Colosphospermum mopane is die spesie wat die meeste aangewend is vir gebruik vir onder andere, vuurmaakhout, charcoal, boumateriaal, heining pale en die voorsiening van eetbare ruspus. Daar is verder bevind dat die plaaslike inwoners gewasproduksie as 'n belangriker ondersteuningsfaktor vir lewensonderhoud sien as lewendehawe produksie, bosveld benutting en kontant inkomste. Die toepassing van strategiese bestuursbeplanning is van kardinale belang in die Mahel. Dit sluit die ontwikkeling van 'n sonerings skema in, om die toepaslike gebruik van bosveld hulpbronne en die bewaring van die plantegroei te verseker vir die toekomstige volhoudbare gebruik van die hulpbron deur plaaslike gemeenskappe.

Cooperation projects rooted in cultural ties, such as South-South cooperation, are contemporarily receiving unprecedented attention from the international development community. This focus on specific types of partnerships points to an increasing concern that who a development actor partners with matters. One reason behind the comparative advantage of South-South cooperation is that countries from the global South have similar social and cultural situations. Yet when and how culture practically matters to development has not been thoroughly explored within urban planning. This thesis examines whether, when, and how cultural affinities matter for the successful design, management, and implementation of urban planning projects in the global South with international partnerships. By exploring the experiences of urban professionals working on collaborative projects in Maputo, Mozambique, this thesis argues that broadly speaking, culture does matter for cooperation and urban development, but whether cultural affinities and differences matter or not for a project largely depends on the project's context. Simply speaking, national culture does not always matter. Consideration of culture beyond the national level to a subcultural level, such as employment and organization-type, often specifies when, how, and how much cultural affinities matter with cross-cultural urban planning cooperation projects. Ultimately, culture is a factor that needs to be more explicitly explored at a nuanced level and included in the design and management of collaborative urban planning projects. Further, culture should be a topic of conversation in promoting reflective practice and the goal of learning in development, such that cross-cultural exchange can be more enabling for urban development.

Abstract:
Mestrado em Ciências do Mar e das Zonas Costeiras
Maputo Bay is a tidally-energetic embayment in Mozambique, influenced by strong rainfall and associated river runoff during the wet season. Previous investigations have suggested the arrestment of the freshwater plume related to high mixing during spring tide, eroding stratification and preventing an efficient exchange with the shelf due to the hampering of density currents. It was suggested that, with decreasing mixing towards neap tide, the bay would re-stratify, releasing the estuarine plume. The objective of this dissertation was to find out whether and under which conditions this arrestment of the estuarine plume occurs in Maputo Bay. A 3-dimensional hydrodynamic model was applied to the bay, improving a previously published model through vertical and temporal refinement and recalibration. It is shown that now the model reproduces more accurately the semidiurnal and fortnightly stratification-mixing cycles occurring during the wet season. However, the model still predicts salinities lower than those found in observations. Uncertainties increase towards the mouth of the Maputo River, for which only modelled river flow data was available to force the bay dynamics, indicating this input as a possible source of the underestimation of salinity. The effect of varying river discharges, varying timings of discharge as well as varying discharge ratios on flushing times was investigated through a set of experiments of varying Maputo and Incomati river flows as well as timings of discharge during the spring-neap cycle. The results suggest that when no discharge or a small discharge is introduced, flushing times are smallest during spring tide, when barotropic forcing is strong. Largest flushing times are found approximately 40 hours before neap tide, when tidal forcing is relatively weak. Flushing times for model runs with larger discharge were smaller due to the addition of flushing from river water. Here, flushing times were especially small during neap tide, when the decreased tidal mixing lead to stratification through which a classical estuarine circulation could develop, leading to an efficient bay-shelf exchange. Maximum flushing times for high-discharge runs during wet season were found for spring tide. Shelf-bay exchange was most efficient when the discharge of the Maputo River was larger than the discharge of the Incomati River, due to its location opposite the bay opening, thus influencing a larger area before leaving the bay. Timing of the discharge of the freshwater had only small effects, influencing the amount of mixing induced on the freshwater when first entering the bay. It is concluded that the estuarine plume of Maputo Bay is in fact arrested during spring tide due to the large mixing inhibiting density currents and is released when mixing decreases, inducing stratification and baroclinic circulation. The potential energy stored in the bay is larger for a larger discharge of the Maputo River.
A Baía de Maputo, em Moçambique, é uma baía com marés energéticas, influenciada pelo escoamento dos rios associado a forte precipitação durante a estação húmida. Investigações anteriores têm sugerido que o aprisionamento da pluma de água doce está relacionado com a elevada mistura durante a maré viva, que por sua vez provoca a erosão da estratificação e impede a troca eficiente com a plataforma continental, dificultando o estabelecimento de correntes de densidade. Foi sugerido que com a diminuição da mistura durante a maré morta a baía seria re-estratificada, libertando a pluma estuarina. O objetivo desta dissertação foi averiguar se, e em que condições, este aprisionamento da pluma estuarina ocorre na baía de Maputo. Foi aplicado um modelo hidrodinâmico 3-d para a baía, resultante do melhoramento de um modelo publicado anteriormente, através do refinamento vertical e temporal e recalibração. É demonstrado que agora o modelo reproduz com mais precisão os ciclos de estratificação/mistura semidiurnas e quinzenais que ocorrem durante a estação chuvosa. No entanto, o modelo ainda prevê salinidades inferiores as encontradas em observações. As incertezas aumentam próximo da foz do Rio Maputo, para o qual existem apenas dados de modelos de bacia para forçar o modelo, indicando esta entrada como uma possível causa da subestimação da salinidade. Foi definido um conjunto de experiências de diferentes descargas dos Rios Maputo e Incomati, sendo estes introduzidos no modelo em fárias fases do ciclo da maré. Foi investigado o efeito da variação da duração das descargas fluviais e da proporção do Maputo e do Incomati nos tempos de renovação da água na baía. Os resultados sugerem que quando há uma pequena descarga dos rios, os tempos de renovação são menores durante a maré viva, quando o forçamento barotrópico é forte. Os maiores tempos de renovação encontram-se cerca de 40 horas antes da maré morta. Os tempos de renovação para as corridas com maior descarga são menores devido à adição de descargas de água do rio. Neste caso, os tempos de renovação foram especialmente pequenos durante a maré morta, quando a diminuição da mistura pela maré induz estratificação, criando condições para o desenvolvimento da circulação estuarina clássica, e escoando a baía eficiente. Tempos máximos de renovação para corridas de alta descarga durante a estação chuvosa foram encontrados em condições mistas de maré viva. O intercâmbio entre a baía e a plataforma continental foi mais eficiente para uma maior proporção do Rio Maputo em relação ao Rio Incomati. Este padrão justifica-se pela maior distância da foz do Rio Maputo à entrada da baía. A variação do momento da descarga de água doce em relação à fase da maré tem efeitos pouco significativos (ou pouco relevantes), determinando apenas o grau de mistura que influencia a água doce nas primeiras horas a seguir da descarga. Concluiu-se que existe um aprisionamento da pluma estuarina da Baía de Maputo. Este aprisionamento ocorre durante a elevada mistura de maré viva. A energia potencial armazenada na baía é maior para uma descarga maior do Rio Maputo.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse interroge les liens entre déplacements forcés et citadinités à partir de l’étude des déplacés de guerre d’origine rurale, venus se réfugier à Maputo à la fin des années 1980. La déterritorialisation et la mobilité forcée constituent des expériences centrales pour comprendre les modes d’ancrage en ville des deslocados. Le caractère coercitif du déplacement vers Maputo explique que les autorités et la majorité des déplacés aient initialement envisagé leur présence en ville comme un état provisoire. La ville est avant tout le lieu du refuge et de la présence éphémère, avant de devenir celui de l’installation durable, le lieu du « chez-soi ». La citadinisation des deslocados est le résultat d’un processus dialectique faisant interagir les politiques des pouvoirs publics, le contexte urbain, social et familial et leurs pratiques individuelles. Si l’exceptionnalité de la situation légitime dans un premier temps leur présence, elle la rend souvent plus « illégitime » que celle des autres migrants une fois le conflit achevé. Vingt ans après leur arrivée, le maintien en ville des anciens déplacés ne saurait être interprété de façon univoque ; pour certains, il témoigne de territorialisations positives, de leur insertion économique et résidentielle, de leur sentiment d’appartenance à Maputo ; pour d’autres, il renvoie au contraire à un impossible retour, dans le passé et dans leur « terre d’origine » et donc à leur immobilité forcée, plutôt qu’à leur citadinité
This thesis deals with the relationships between forced displacements and “citadinités”. It is based on the study of war refugees of rural origin, who sought refuge in Maputo in late 1980. Deterritorialization, displacements and forced mobility are crucial to understand the way deslocados take root in cities. As the original displacement to Maputo was forced, public authorities and the majority of the displaced people initially considered their presence in the city as temporary. The city was primarily a place of refuge and ephemeral presence. It then became a place of permanent settlement, a “home place”. The deslocados arrived in a city facing a crisis. Their “citadinisation” is the result of a dialectical process where the government policies, the urban, social and family contexts and their individual practices interact. Although their exceptional situations first legitimated the deslocados presence, the latter became less legitimate compared to the other migrants settling when the conflict was over. We cannot interpret unambiguously the ongoing presence of former displaced people twenty years after their arrival. For some, it reflects positive territorializations: their economic and residential integration, their sense of belonging to Maputo. Conversely, it refers, for others, to the impossible coming back to their pasts and their "homelands" and thus their enforced immobility, rather than their “citadinité”

This thesis is about justice and spatial justice in Maputo, with an analysis on policies making and the people’s own experiences of the inequality to access public services (improved drinkable water, waste management). The people’s lack of expression concerning their feelings of injustice in collective mobilization, led the author to aim her work toward the making of policies regarding development and also the relationship between people and politic. The political angle of this work was study within the frame of local power and the political control exercised there. There’s a focus on how people can solve public matters.

Abstract:
AbstractAfrican cities are sometimes considered “off the map” as underdeveloped peripheries alienated from cultural globalisation. The intrinsic ethnic and cultural diversity of African cities is often overshadowed by a distant perception of their overall “blackness” and a supposed cultural uniformity. These cities have always been places of intense circulation and mass settlement both from within the continent and from outside, may it be from Asia, Europe and the Middle East in colonial contexts notably but also more recently Latin America. However, African urban diversity and the recent changes it underwent has received little academic attention.This chapter describes cosmopolitan practices and representations in Antananarivo (Madagascar) and Maputo (Mozambique), mainly but not only focusing on Chinese diasporas and communities sharing Chinese origins through observation and interviews. Cosmopolitan interactions in old or newly created so-called “ethnic” places such as restaurants, casinos and other leisure settings are under study to discuss processes of neighbouring cosmopolitanism at the very local place. Residents of African cities display features of cosmopolitan urbanites with intense variation across contexts and communities.

<p>Maputo Bridge in Mozambique is the largest suspension bridge under construction in Africa, which adopts a double-pylon single-span steel box girder structure with a main span of 680m.</p><p>The superstructure steel box girder construction faces a series of obstacles. By researching and applying the key construction techniques, such as whole-section factory manufacturing, all girders one-time ocean shipping, complex environment wharfing and lifting, new rotating cable crane erection and site connection, and etc., the project achieved the purpose of period guarantee, quality control, environmental impact reduction and suspension bridge construction technology promotion. Furthermore, it is expected to provide a reference and engineering example for similar large-scale bridge projects in the future.</p>

Abstract:
<p>Bridges may undergo significant temperature variation under the combined influence of solar radiation and daily ambient temperature. In some circumstances, thermal stresses due to temperature gradient or external constraint can be significant in comparison to dead or live load stresses. This paper investigates the solar temperature distribution and effect on the Maputo Bridge, a super-long suspension bridge in Mozambique. Thermal finite element model is established considering the local seasonal and daily variation of solar radiation and ambient temperature. Then the temperature distribution of the outer plates of the girder is extracted to quantify the temperature effect. Parametric analysis is also carried out to identify the key parameters. It is found that the modelling details have minor influences, whereas a smaller film coefficient and thinner asphalt pavement tend to enlarge the temperature gradient. By comparing the simulated temperature distribution with the thermal gradient load in the codes, it’s found that the temperature distribution in the studied flat steel box girder doesn’t follow any thermal gradient load in the current bridge codes and therefore a novel thermal gradient load is suggested.</p>

Abstract:
In Mozambique, development programmes have traditionally drawn on music as a means to promote social transformation by educating citizens on key social development issues. Shifting the focus from music as a teaching medium to music as a rich source of information can provide vital insights into public opinion and political ideas, and significantly impact the development of citizen engagement projects. Maximum gains for development and civil society agencies can be achieved by mainstreaming gender into mutual learning activities between singers, audiences, and academics.

Abstract:
This study examines Mozambican popular music to investigate three questions: Are notions of empowerment and accountability present in popular music in Mozambique? If so, what can these existing notions of empowerment and accountability reveal about relations between citizens and state institutions in general and about citizen-led social and political action in particular? In what ways is popular music used to support citizen mobilisation in Mozambique? The discussion is based on an analysis of 46 protest songs, interviews with musicians, music producers and event promoters as well as field interviews and observations among audiences at selected popular music concerts and public workshops in Maputo city. Secondary data were drawn from radio broadcasts, digital media, and social networks. The songs analysed were widely played in the past two decades (1998–2018), a period in which three different presidents led the country. Our focus is on the protest song, conceived as those musical products that are concerned with public affairs, particularly public policy and how it affects citizens’ social, political and economic life, and the relationship between citizens and the state.
