The Government of Cabo Delgado Province, through the Provincial Service for Justice and Labor (SPJT-CD), launched a Birth Registration and Birth Certificate Issuance Campaign on July 21, 2026, in Palma district, and on July 24 in the city of Pemba, with the support of the Mozambique LNG Foundation.

The campaign will reach 40,000 beneficiaries — 20,000 in Palma district and 20,000 in the city of Pemba. Its objective is to remove barriers to the exercise of citizenship and to access to basic social services, currently constrained by the lack of civil identification documents.

On the ground, the process is carried out by 20 Birth Registration Agents and 10 Validators (Registrars) trained by SPJT-CD, covering the entire registration chain — from notification to the issuance of certificates — and strengthening SPJT-CD’s institutional capacity.

The initiative stems from the Memorandum of Understanding signed between SPJT-CD and the Mozambique LNG Foundation and falls within the Government’s Five-Year Plan 2025–2029, under the strategic actions of ensuring access to justice and simplifying civil registration and identification procedures.
