Description

The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Counterterrorism (CT) announces a competitive funding opportunity to strengthen the security of critical transit routes in northern Mozambique and protect U.S. economic interests. Northern Mozambique is a region of growing economic significance, with key transit routes that support international commerce. This two-year initiative will enable safer and more reliable movement for U.S. companies, personnel, and goods in Mozambique in support of U.S. economic opportunities and investment in the region. The program will help the Police of the Republic of Mozambique (PRM) detect and disrupt terrorism threats along the N380 and N1 highways, which lead into Cabo Delgado and connect strategic economic zones in the north. The project will provide specialized training and non-lethal equipment so law enforcement can respond more effectively to suspected terrorist activity. Targeted mentorship for PRM units will reinforce training, address challenges in real time, and build trust within the units to ensure consistent application of new skills and procedures. By increasing law enforcement presence, improving preparedness and response capabilities, and fostering collaboration, this initiative will reduce the risk of attacks and disruptions along these vital highways. The program will strengthen law enforcement effectiveness and give U.S. entities greater confidence to operate and invest in the region.
