Having the emergence and strengthening of South-South Cooperation (SSC) as the main background, compared to Official Development Assistance (ODA), the general objective of this dissertation aimed to analyze the Brazilian Cooperation for International Development (CID), known as Cobradi, in the African agricultural sector, specifically in Mozambique. A qualitative methodology was used in the research, which sought to present some theoretical contributions to the subject. Supported by this theoretical reference, the research carries out an analysis of the investments and commercial exchanges between Brazil and Africa during the government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (2003-2010) and Dilma Rousseff (2011-2016), as well as a case study limited to Mozambique. In this country, some brazilian public policies on Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) were transferred, and the Triangular Co-operation Programme for Agricultural Development of the Tropical Savannah in Mozambique (ProSAVANA) is in the process of being implemented. Based on Nicos Poulantzas' theory and Bob Jessop's Strategic Relational Approach (SRA) contributions, the conclusions of this dissertation led to the assertion that the nature of Cobradi, transferred to Mozambique through ProSAVANA program and other Brazilian public policies, is ambiguous in relation to the principles and practices advocated by SSC; is characterized by a contradictory unity, with respect to the character of the agricultural sectors institutional structure; and reproduces in Mozambique the development model based on the articulation of the accumulation strategies of mining, agribusiness and logistics, which resulted in ProSAVANA. This program primarily serves the interests of the power bloc of Japan, secondarily the interests of the power bloc of Brazil, and finally the interests of the power bloc in Mozambique. Finally, public policies on food security, which were successful in Brazil and were welcomed by rural workers in Mozambique, do not appear to be priority programs, as power bloc subordinate these programs to the development model carried out in Mozambique.
