On March 1, 2024, in Maputo, medicusmundi signed a Memorandum of Agreement with the Hixikanwe Association, within the framework of the project “Consolidating exit routes from gender-based violence in Maputo”, financed by the Catalan Agency for Development Cooperation (ACCD).
Within the framework of the project “Consolidating exit routes from gender-based violence in Maputo”, financed by the Catalan Agency for Development Cooperation (ACCD), the two partner organizations – medicusmundi and Associação Hixikanwe – are committed to eradicating gender violence, with greater focus on surviving women and their daughters and sons.
This project aims to provide legal, psychological and clinical assistance to women, as well as empower them economically and psychologically, so that they can escape the cycle of violence to which they are subjected.
The same project also proposes to continue strengthening the Multisectoral Mechanism for Comprehensive Care to Women Victims of Violence (MMAIMVV) at the level of the municipal district of Kamubukwana, in the city of Maputo, together with the different public sectors.
