EIFL in Mozambique

From 2005 - 2015, EIFL partnered with the Universidade Pedagógica to build a national library consortium. Through this partnership libraries in Mozambique were provided with access to a wide range of scholarly e-resources. The partnership also raised awareness about open access and fair copyright for libraries.

In 2008, EIFL supported a workshop on institutional repositories and open access at Eduardo Mondlane University in collaboration with the Minho University in Portugal. The major outcome of this workshop was the launch of a national repository SABER (“knowledge” in Portuguese) launched in 2009.

In 2024, EIFL awarded a grant to Eduardo Mondlane University (Universidade Eduardo Mondlane - UEM) to improve its journal publishing platform, UEM Scientific Journals (Revistas Científicas da UEM - RC-UEM), which hosts four peer reviewed no-fee open access journals. UEM will place a special emphasis on improving  the quality and sustainability of the journal, Revista Científica da UEM: Série Letras e Ciências Sociais.

The grant was one of 33 awarded in 2024 and 2025 through a three-year project to strengthen no-fee open access publishing in Africa
