The Maputo Accord, officially the Maputo Accord for Peace and National Reconciliation, is a peace agreement between the Government of Mozambique and Renamo, signed on 6 August 2019, with the aim of bringing definitive peace to Mozambique.[1] The agreement was signed by the President of the Republic of Mozambique, Filipe Nyusi, and the leader of Renamo, Ossufo Momade, in Maputo, and was the result of years of negotiations.[2] It was preceded by the signing of the Agreement on the Definitive Cessation of Military Hostilities, on 1 August 2019, in Gorongosa.[3]
The Maputo Accord commits both parties to put an end to all political and military hostilities and to implement, in full, the legislative package on decentralisation.[4] It further commits to the complete disarmament, demobilisation, and subsequent socio-economic reintegration of Renamo’s former combatants[5] and includes provisions for the placement of former combatants in the Mozambique Armed Defence Forces (FADM) structure and in the units of the Police of the Republic of Mozambique (PRM).[6]
