  • Expanding Marine Protected Areas and Advancing Ocean Governance under the 30×30 Agenda in Mozambique 2023–2030

    Mozambique is making notable progress toward the 30x30 target, particularly in the marine realm. Over the past two years, the country expanded its system of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) by roughly 4.6% of the Exclusive Economic Zone and developed a comprehensive national Strategy and Action Plan for MPA Expansion, which is pending government approval. The strategy outlines priority areas, governance reforms, and implementation steps to reinforce coastal and marine conservation while supporting sustainable development.
