As part of the support to the development of the private sector in Mozambique, Danida planned a special initiative aiming at strengthening the advocacy capacity of private sector organisations (PSOs) and private sector and labour market related research.

Hence, the purpose of the Advocacy & Business Research (ABR) Component was thus to strengthening the quality and credibility of private sector organisations, national as well as provincial, to effectively take part in public private dialogue and policy-making and to promote improvements in the business environment, hereby contributing to achieving the government's goal of socially balance economic growth.
