Festa em Metangula: A Celebration

Women perform a traditional dance to celebrate the opening of the Lake Niassa Reserve. The establishment of the Lake Niassa Reserve follows on five years of community-based work conducted in close collaboration with the Mozambican government by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), with the support of USAID and the Coca-Cola Corporation. The opening ceremony was attended by more than 200 enthusiastic community members, along with a large number of the Mozambican governmental officials who will be involved with the management of the Reserve and representatives from USAID and WWF.
