This report is a series of research reports on topics of relevance to those who are working with humanitarian assistance. Sida, in close cooperation with the Nordic Africa Institute, sponsors the publishing of these reports as a contribution to the dialogue between humanitarian actors, in the field and at headquarters around the world. The present report addressed the humanitarian aid coordination problems in Mozambique 1986-95. Coordination remains an important subject on the international humanitarian agenda. By looking at case studies, lessons for the future can hopefully be drawn. Everyone involved in this field should read it.

The book traces the end of hostilities and the often acrimonious, sometimes naive, but always laboured negotiations towards peace and elections in Mozambique. There is careful examination of the many international factors involved from the covert intervention of South Africa, the reaction of one African state, the role of the United Nations and that of humanitarian and religious groups. The lessons for conflict resolution and peacekeeping for Africa and beyond are discussed.

The author meets entrepreneur Jim on a 1988 North Pole adventure, discover they are both Africa enthusiasts. Returning from a waspish over the Andes pipeline experience in 1995, Jim recruits him for Africa to produce a feasibility study to obtain a 40,000 acre Indian Ocean look-alike San Francisco Peninsula development offered personally by Mozamique's President. The project goes through several near death experiences, end up an inimitable world class international tourist destination project. Jim has the largest wildlife refuge development by private enterprise on record, a 914 Sq Mi wildlife ecotourism development which safeguards the UN's botanically diverse region. But Jim fails to develop it, dies in 1999. The author now targets recruiting a billionaire or Disney to fund expanding to 4000 Sq Mi to connect to the nearby 38,500 Sq Mi worlds' largest wildlife refuge, to provide range to save 5000 Kruger elephants slated for mercy killing for overgrazing.
