ABSTRACT
Sars-Cov-2 contaminates human beings, regardless of their ethnicity, sex and social class;however, one cannot deny that it represents greater threat to those who survive despite their precarious living conditions. This population is distributed in different places worldwide;however, such a distribution is uneven. The aim of the current study is to analyze the impacts of the health and humanitarian crisis on the African continent, where these precariousness is most significant. Based on the Mozambique case, it addresses the vulnerability of the education system in a globalization context wherein the country faces the challenge of simultaneously meeting demands posed by international organizations and building the foundations of a National State, amid dependency relationships that mark its history: external dependence, domination and blocking of differences that utopias of the post-colonial nationalist movement were not enough to overcome. The study adopted post colonial reflections to substantiate the assumption that attachment to the idea of forming a national Mozambican identity has contributed to deepen practices that favor exclusion processes and compromise the construction of democracy as open possibility.
