The COREBIOM project, supported by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) and part of the RINO Programme, recently reached an important milestone with the signing of the contract for the rehabilitation of the Museu de História Natural de Maputo. The contract signed with the company Construarte marks a significant chapter in the history of this institution, which is fundamental to research, collection conservation and the promotion of scientific and cultural exhibitions.
The Museum, an integral part of the Universidade ‘Eduardo Mondlane’, has always been a pillar in the panorama of scientific research and cultural heritage conservation. Its redevelopment will not only strengthen its position as a reference point in the academic and scientific spheres, but will also contribute to creating a modern, state-of-the-art infrastructure for use by the local and international community.
The Museu de História Natural de Maputo, with its rich heritage of natural and anthropological collections, is destined to become a magnet for students, researchers and lovers of culture and science. The redevelopment aims not only to improve the accessibility and usability of the collections, but also to provide the museum with state-of-the-art facilities for innovative and engaging exhibitions.
Today is a historic day for the Museu de História Natural de Maputo and for the entire COREBIOM project. The start of work marks a new phase of growth and development for this institution, promising to consolidate its role in the scientific and cultural landscape not only locally but also internationally.
