Synopsis "Soil Erosion in Maputo City - Case of Polana Caniço Neighbourhood A"

In Maputo City, in particular in the Polana Caniço "A" neighbourhood, the most obvious erosion is pluvial erosion, caused by rain and is the most complex, however, wind erosion also occurs in the dry season. Pluvial erosion is the product of the interaction between rain and soil. The degree of pluvial erosion that occurs is mainly related to the fact that the neighbourhood does not have drainage infrastructures as well as its degree of vulnerability mainly due to the poor social condition of most residents. The rains that fell in early 2000 reduced the Polana Caniço "A" neighbourhood to huge craters, with several infrastructures destroyed and others at risk, including housing, the local Primary School, the Polana Health Centre, the water and energy distribution network. It is in this context that this monograph focuses its attention on the study of strategies for the control and mitigation of soil erosion in the Polana Caniço "A" Neighbourhood, which necessarily involves the involvement of all parties and synergies that can be a solution to this problem, namely residents, municipal authorities, civil society organisations, the academic community. Thank you my God!
