Chiaquelane

Chiaquelane is a village and camp for persons displaced by flooding, located about 30 km from the city of Chókwè, Gaza Province, Mozambique.

During that time, the government provided the affected population with plots and fields to entice them to stay in elevated areas.

[3] In January 2013, singer Stewart Sukuma, National Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF Mozambique, visited flood victims at Chiaquelane.

[2][4][5] By mid March, 2013, estimates suggested that "no more than 5,000 families were living more permanently in the Chiaquelane camp.

Most of those remaining were women and children, left behind to secure shelter, food and belongings while the men went to Chókwè to assess damages and prepare for return.
