ACA ambassador, H.E. Former President of the Republic of Mozambique, Joaquim Chissano, served as Mozambique’s president from 1986 to 2005. Since stepping down, he has been involved with the United Nations and other organizations to support the political, social, economic and cultural development of Africa. In 2006, Mr. Chissano was appointed by UN Secretary Kofi Annan to participate in a special peacekeeping envoy to Northern Uganda.
As a high-profile leader, Mr. Chissano is willing to help broaden knowledge about the African cashew sector, as well as assist ACA to promote and lobby for improved policies to increase the competitiveness of the African cashew sector. During the ACA annual meeting in Mozambique in March 2007, Mr. Chissano delivered a message underlining the importance of the cashew sector for overall African economic growth. He expressed his appreciation of the sector and emphasized the ACA as a good example of a public private partnership that stimulates collaboration across the continent, creating benefits for both Africans and non-Africans.
Message from Mr. Chissano:
