Описание: At Ansha's takes the reader inside the spirit mosque of a female healer in Nampula, northern Mozambique. It is here that Ansha, a Makonde spirit healer, heals the resisting ailments of her patients, discloses pieces of her story of affliction and healing, and engages the world outside her mosque. We come to know Ansha's experiences as revolutionary and migrant, her religious trajectories, family, the healers who cured her, the spirits who possessed her, and her declining health. We follow Ansha's shifts in her life and work in the mosque as these intersect with the visible and invisible borders of Mozambique and of its fraught history. Confronting events in her life and in the mosque during between 2009 and 2016, Ansha invites us to make meaning with her, as we sit in her mosque, and engage with her family, spirits, friends, patients, and world.
Описание: This paper explores the financial habits and constraints of rural women in Mozambique and Tanzania, both at country and village level, with the aim of answering how, and why, they differ from those of their male counterparts.
The analyses carried out for both countries depict a scenario in which rural men and women are set on divergent development trajectories: as household wealth increases, men attain higher levels of education and asset ownership, as well as better access to identification documents and the ability to diversify their incomes. All of these factors represent, at the same time, both a cause and consequence of greater access to formal financial services.
The report suggests that fostering gender-sensitive financial inclusion will require coordinated interventions in relation to different imbalances, bringing substantial reform to elements such as access to identification documents, land titling, know-your-customer regulation, financial education, ingrained socio-cultural norms and many other aspects.

Описание: This book tells the history of the changing gendered landscapes of northern Mozambique from the perspective of women who fought in the armed struggle for national independence, diverting from the often-told narrative of women in nationalist wars that emphasizes a linear plot of liberation.
This groundbreaking study investigates defining themes in the field of social memory studies as they bear on the politics of post-Cold-War, post-apartheid Southern Africa. Alice Dinerman offers a detailed chronicle of the Mozambican government's attempts to revise the country's troubled postcolonial past with a view to negotiating the political challenges posed by the present. In doing so, she lays bare the path-dependence of memory practices, while tracing their divergent trajectories, shifting meanings and varied combinations within ruling discourse and performance.
Central themes include:
the interplay between past and present
the dialectic between remembering and forgetting
the dynamics between popular and official memory discourses
the politics of acknowledgement.
Dinerman's original analysis is essential reading for students of modern Africa, the sociology of memory, Third World politics and post-conflict societies.
