The United Nations promised to advocate with the Mozambican government to include funding for geospatial technologies in the state budget, as they are important for reducing the impacts of natural disasters.
The United Nations resident leader in Mozambique, Catherine Sozi, argued that geospatial technologies are important and are a key factor in minimising the impacts of the natural disasters that have affected Mozambique, with greater incidence in recent years. Mozambique is considered one of the countries most severely affected by global climate change, facing cyclical floods and tropical cyclones during the rainy season, but also prolonged periods of severe drought.
