August 2008 Edilson Dinande is ten years old and regarded as society trash. Hes a street child one of 400 who live on the streets of Maputo in Mozambique. He owes his way of life to the destructing civil war.

About 5 percent of the more difficult conflicts seem to become intractable, unsolvable. Columbia University Professor Peter T. Coleman discusses why these 5 percent problems seem so unsolvable and offers a few helpful ways to think about them in order to reach a solution. This video shares some lessons about ending long-term conflicts from the bloody, 16 year civil war in Mozambique, which is a great example of a country where the impossible happened -- peace broke out.

Purchase: www.der.org As Mozambique emerges from a past filled with civil war, the threat of landmines indefinitely remains. Amidst a country where a variety of devastating economic and health concerns take top priority, de-mining programs are generally unfunded and minimal. Small Targets: Children and Landmines in Mozambique explores this issue and how it directly effects the most innocent of citizens: the children. In Mozambique alone, there are an estimated ten people killed or injured by landmines each week, and many of the victims are children. As landmines are undetectable without proper equipment and training, the risk of detonation is constant and inescapable. a film by David A. Feingold distributed by Documentary Educational Resources

Mozambique stretches for 1535 mi (2470 km) along Africa's southeast coast. It is nearly twice the size of California. Tanzania is to the north; Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe to the west; and South Africa and Swaziland to the south. The country is generally a low-lying plateau broken up by 25 sizable rivers that flow into the Indian Ocean. The largest is the Zambezi, which provides access to central Africa. History: Bantu speakers migrated to Mozambique in the first millennium, and Arab and Swahili traders settled the region thereafter. It was explored by Vasco da Gama in 1498 and first colonized by Portugal in 1505. By 1510, the Portuguese had control of all of the former Arab sultanates on the east African coast. Portuguese colonial rule was repressive. Guerrilla activity began in 1963, and became so effective by 1973 that Portugal was forced to dispatch 40000 troops to fight the rebels. A cease-fire was signed in Sept. 1974, and after having been under Portuguese colonial rule for 470 years, Mozambique became independent on June 25, 1975. The first president, Samora Moises Machel, had been the head of the National Front for the Liberation of Mozambique (FRELIMO) in its ten-year guerrilla war for independence. He died in a plane crash in 1986, and was succeeded by his foreign minister, Joaquim Chissanó. On Jan. 25, 1985, after a decade of independence, the government became locked in a paralyzing war with antigovernment guerrillas, the Mozambique National Resistance (MNR ...
