Information management in disaster communication for cyclone prevention in Mozambique

Resumo

Mozambique is an African country that lies on the east coast, in a region vulnerable to extreme events caused by climate change, which leaves the lives of Mozambicans in a situation of vulnerability (CHICHANGO et al, 2021). In recent years in Mozambique, the impacts caused by cyclones have intensified, such as: Cyclone Dineo in 2017, Tropical Cyclone Idai and Kenneth in 2019, Tropical Storm Chalane in 2020, Tropical Cyclone Eloise in 2021, Tropical Cyclone Gombe in 2022 and more recently Tropical Cyclone Fredy in 2023. According to WWF-Brazil (2015), in recent years there has been a great concern on the part of researchers regarding issues related to climate change, and there is compelling scientific evidence that shows it to be caused by human action.
