A Mozambican who has hope in the possibility of the progress of his country and Africa, in “Dreams for my Country”, Pedro Vilanculo unapologetically unveils the nature and origins of the challenges of his country and proposes a new mindset and a new deal for Mozambique and by extension for Africa towards building a better and shared future for all and for the generations to come. Dreams for my Country is a conduit for the educated Mozambicans and Africans, the like of those the author has interacted with in Africa, North America and Europe who are hungry for change in their countries and for the continent. It is a book that the leadership of the Western World and Asia and their think tanks, diplomats, strategists and policy makers can’t ignore, if they want to understand the mindset and priorities of the African leaders of tomorrow and the new rules of engagement. Contrary to the common approaches, Dreams for my Country calls Mozambicans and Africans to take full responsibility for our failures and sees developing confidence in ourselves, a mindset shift and coming about with a clear and definite long-term agenda as a solution that will bring change and prosperity. Pedro Vilanculo was born and raised in the small Mozambican town of Vilankulo, a territory named after his ancestors. Despite his unfavorable origins he grew up believing in a future that could be better- and today he expands his hope for a Mozambique and Africa that will prosper and deliver for the people. He had the privilege of studying in different countries and his educational background includes in the areas of law and management. Pedro is a Chevening Alumnus, and he currently lives in Luxembourg.
