Mozambique has made significant strides in integrating sustainable development principles into its legal framework to address environmental degradation and socio-economic disparities. The research employs a qualitative approach, examining legislative documents, judicial decisions, and academic literature. Comparative frameworks are used to assess practices in other African jurisdictions. Key themes emerge regarding the fragmented nature of sustainable development legislation across Mozambique's different sectors, with notable success in environmental protection laws but gaps in water management policies. Mozambique's legal framework for sustainable development shows promise but requires consolidation and harmonisation to achieve comprehensive implementation. The government should prioritise cross-sectoral policy integration and public education campaigns to strengthen enforcement mechanisms and increase awareness of sustainable practices.
