The delegation was welcomed by the EUMAM MOZ Mission Force Commander, Commodore César Pires Correia, followed by a briefing on the work carried out by the European Union Mission in Mozambique and its impact on the development and capacity-building of the Mozambican Defence Armed Forces (FADM). 

As part of the visit, the delegation also visited the Delegation of the European Union to Mozambique, where they met with the Gender Programme Manager, reinforcing the importance of integrating a gender perspective within the context of the mission. 

The visit also included a trip to the Katembe Training Camp, where the delegation had the opportunity to observe the work being carried out as part of the regeneration of the FADM Quick Reaction Forces (QRF).

Visits of this nature highlight the importance of continuous cooperation between European Union Member States and EUMAM MOZ, as well as the shared commitment to strengthening the capabilities of the FADM, contributing to their autonomy and operational readiness. 

As a non-executive European Union mission, EUMAM MOZ focuses its efforts on the operational training cycle, maintenance and specialised training, supporting the capacity-building of the FADM towards self-sustainability. 

EUMAM MOZ includes more than 80 military and civilian personnel from 12 nationalities, where Austria contributes with one military element.
