莫桑比克华文教育的历史可以追溯至20世纪20年代，1975年因莫桑比克国家独立后的政治原因中断，21世纪后中华国际学校成立，华文教育得到重新推动。莫华文教育经历了华语作为母语教学向华语作为第二语言教学的转变，但华校的经费筹集、运转与管理方式等方面与过去相比没有太大变化，与莫其他国际学校相比差距甚大，面临可持续发展的巨大挑战。中非合作全面升级，为非洲华文教育带来新机遇。应从教育国际化的角度将莫桑比克华文教育纳入中国参与非洲教育治理的合作范畴，给予更系统的教育资源支持，形成与孔子学院有机互动、齐头并进的机制，为汉语和中华文化在非洲的推广发挥更大作用。
The history of Chinese education in Mozambique can be traced back to the 1920s and stopped due to the political reasons after the independence of Mozambique in 1975. Chinese education has been re-launched in the new century because of the establishment of the Chinese International School. Chinese Education in Mozambique has experienced the change from teaching Chinese as the mother tongue to teaching Chinese as a second language. But the system of fundraising，operation and management have not changed significantly. Compared with other international schools in Mozambique，Chinese International School still has a long way to go and faces the enormous challenges of sustainable development. The comprehensive upgrading of China-Africa cooperation has brought new opportunities for Chinese education in Africa. From the perspective of internationalization of education，we should integrate Mozambique’s Chinese education into the cooperation scope of China’s participation in African educational governance，provide more systematic support of educational resources，thus to construct an organic interaction between Chinese education and Confucius Institutes，and to better promote the spread of Chinese language and culture in Africa.
