Land disputes are a pervasive issue in Mozambique's conflict zones, leading to social unrest and economic stagnation. An ethnographic study involving participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and focus groups with community members in three conflict zones. Participants reported significant improvements in mental health following involvement in mediation programmes (60% reduction in anxiety levels). Mediation programmes not only resolve disputes but also positively impact the psychological well-being of local communities. Implementing culturally sensitive and evidence-based support services alongside mediation can enhance programme effectiveness.
