Since 2003, the Brazilian government, relying on its experience of local production of antiretrovirals and other generic medicines in its public plants, supports the Government of Mozambique to implement its own pharmaceutical plant. This South-South Cooperation is providing the technology, training, equipment and funding for the creation of a public-owned health industry. Based on interviews, observations and archive research carried out in Brazil and Mozambique with political actors from both governments, experts and technicians involved, this communication will interrogate the practical conditions of a project that combines diplomacy, technical knowledge circulation and public health goals. She aims to show how the technical, economic and political hurdles experienced by the project reveal the stakes for manufacturing medicines and making them available in a limited resource country while challenging the idea of horizontal cooperation.<\/p>\n
