Abstract

The validity of research on roads in Mozambique and the region depends on the reliability of laboratory test results. AfCAP is supporting the implementation of a pilot project for Proficiency Testing in selected laboratories. The overall objective is to establish laboratory testing in Mozambique that is in line with international practices and standards and test results that can be used with confidence. This inception report addresses the approach, initial visits, methodology and work plan for the project. This output is part of the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
