This requires creativity and commitment to mobilizing resources and creative solutions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n<p>In turn, the rector of UEM, Manuel Guilherme J\u00fanior, recalled that, since its creation in 2005, the center has contributed decisively to the advancement of science in Mozambique.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cCB-UEM has been a privileged space for training highly qualified professionals, some of whom now hold leadership positions in public and private institutions,\u201d said the Rector, also highlighting projects with a direct impact on the areas of health, agriculture, the environment and the development of partnerships with national and international institutions.<\/p>\r\n<p>(By MozaVibe)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[caption id=\"attachment_3272\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"700\"] Jo\u00e3o Neves.
