Territorial Planning
Verde Azul maintains the highest ethical respect for Mozambique’s land, water and other natural resources. Verde Azul has an in-house team of over thirty experts covering land rights, community land use and land ownership, land tenure, population, urbanization, construction and land use planning.
Verde Azul’s experience in land administration involves community land rights, identification of suitable land for investment, socio-economic mapping and mapping of use of natural resources as well as a systematic approach to resilience building. One such tool is the identification of high value conservation areas. This approach is successful in maintaining ecosystem resilience while assisting investors in maximizing their projects in the best and most sustainable locations.
Verde Azul also supports the preparation of resettlement plans using geo-spatial information. Verde Azul also formed a group of companies that carry out specialized works on land, covering from topographic surveys and surveys on water to agriculture, tourism, forest development, as well as environmental auditing, urban development and sustainable construction. We work directly with national and foreign institutions and investors.
