Abstract
This short country report, a result of
larger Information for Development Program (infoDev) -
supported survey of the Information and Communication
Technologies (ICT) in education in Africa, provides a
general overview of current activities and issues related to
ICT use in education in the country. Mozambique's
economy has grown at a steady pace since the end of 1992,
following 16 years of civil war. Its education system has
also improved markedly with steady increases in school
enrolment, even though the numbers of qualified teachers
have not kept pace. Mozambique has also been in the lead in
southern Africa in developing a national ICT policy and
implementation strategy with dedicated programs such as
school net Mozambique and the Mozambican ICT Institute
(MICTI), which serve as flagship projects in the use of ICTs
to facilitate and support learning and skill development in
the country.
