Abstract
This research analyze Public-Private Partnerships in the Tourism Sector in Niassa as a Booster for Local Development, as well as to identify the tourist instances of the Province of Niassa; describe the relationship of these instances with the local population; characterize the influence of these instances on local development. Considering these objectives, we used the qualitative research method, seeking to gather the opinion of a panel of professionals and academic experts in the areas of tourism, tourism project management and funding in the Provincial Directorate of Culture and Tourism. Research results show that there is a cursory knowledge of the potential of these tourist sites and contributes little to local development; most instance owners in Niassa province prefer to hire foreign staff, particularly from neighboring Malawi for sectors such as hospitality, cooking, diving and catering because they fear admitting untrained Mozambicans; There is no full connection with the local community, there is no doubt that in these tourist sites the potential of the local cultural scope is not explored as an attraction to be offered to the tourist.
Keywords: Public-Private Partnerships, Tourist resorts, Local development, Mozambique.
