Private Sector Partnership for Development (PSPD)

Aligning private-sector actors around shared development results in Cabo Delgado

No single institution – however well resourced or strategically positioned – can respond to the scale of Cabo Delgado’s development challenges alone. Lasting impact requires the intentional alignment of efforts, the coordination of resources, and the deliberate amplification of what others are already doing. The private sector has a central role to play, but its contribution is greatest when actors move together rather than separately

In 2025, the Foundation co-founded the Private Sector Partnership for Development (PSPD), a platform that enables coordination among private-sector actors and supports aligned investment for the future. The platform aims to mobilize leading private-sector actors around a common vision – aligning resources, sharing information, and achieving combined results that no single entity could reach on its own. With new members expected to join, the PSPD turns the Foundation’s partnership approach into a structural rather than incidental mechanism.

PSPD current members: ExxonMobil Moçambique Limitada, Fundação Mozambique LNG, Fundação RESET (founded by members of the Ferreira dos Santos family – JFS), Fundação Vodacom Moçambique, and Twigg Exploration and Mining Limitada (a subsidiary of Syrah Resources).
