UNESCO Maputo Office is a national office in the Southern Africa region within the Harare Multi-sectoral Regional Office cluster.

In partnership with the Government, other national and international partners, UNESCO undertakes strategic initiatives to create and reinforce the necessary policies, systems, programmes, and capacities to reach targets identified in existing national development strategies and in the ongoing UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) for the Republic of Mozambique.

The Office pursues partnerships with other components of the civil society whenever their purposes contribute to the building of peace, the eradication of poverty, and sustainable development and intercultural dialogue through education, the sciences, culture, communication, and information.

UNESCO is the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. It seeks to build peace through international cooperation in education, sciences and culture. UNESCO's programmes contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals defined in the 2030 Agenda, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015.
