Public Outreach Meeting
Mozambican Minister of Development and Planning Aiuba Cuereneia speaks at MCC's Mozambique Compact Signing Public Outreach meeting while Ambassador Howard Wolpe, Director of the Africa Program at the Woodrow Wilson International Center, MCC Country Director Steven Gaull, MCA-Mozambique Team Leader Emilio Muchanga, and MCC CEO Ambassador John Danilovich listen.
On July 12, 2007 the MCC in partnership with the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars hosted a public forum to discuss the MCC Compact with the Republic of Mozambique. The $507 million grant seeks to reduce poverty through increased incomes and employment by improving water systems, sanitation, roads, land tenure, and agriculture.
