Mozambique achieved significant gains in life expectancy, rising from 44 years in 1990 to 61 years by 2020. Improvements in public health, expanded vaccination programs, and efforts to reduce maternal and child mortality drove these gains. However, the plateau since 2020 reflects ongoing challenges in addressing non-communicable diseases and healthcare infrastructure gaps, especially in rural areas.
