“The Peace Corps has announced that the agency will close its country program in Mozambique. After nearly three decades of close partnership with the people and government of Mozambique, ongoing security concerns and persistent operational challenges prevent the return of Peace Corps Volunteers to service in the foreseeable future. The legacy of friendship and partnership between Mozambique and the United States, fostered through lasting connections amongst returned Peace Corps Volunteers, host families, community partners, and agency staff will endure. Since the Peace Corps opened its country program in 1998 at the invitation of the government of Mozambique, over 1,400 volunteers have served in the Health and Education sectors across the country. There are no currently serving Volunteers in Mozambique.”
