Abstract : This research has as its theme the Contribution of Inclusive Education in the construction Citizenship in Mozambique. The main objective consists in understanding how the inclusive education contributes in the formation and development of citizenship in Mozambique. In the Republic of Mozambique, Education is a fundamental social right embodied in the Constitution. Despite these policies being present in the country's official education documents, the effectiveness of the implementation process and its impact on promoting citizenship are still being questioned. For support and theoretical analysis, we selected Freire (2014); Dallari (1998); Brandão (1986); Mendes (2010); and the publications of MEC-MOÇAMBIQUE (2006). The choice of these publications was due to the degree of their representativeness in the context of what constitutes the content of this research, which consists of the centrality of education as the force for change, and an instrument to overcome the barriers of exclusion and building the citizenship that makes a person an active participant in social life. A qualitative approach was used through a bibliographic and documentary survey mapping public policies for inclusive education in Mozambique, and contextual analysis on their impact on the Educational System. The sources of analysis in that study were the Strategic Plans of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Mozambique, National and International reports on education and inclusion, Resolutions and Laws or regulations related to the study. From the findings it can be said that inclusive education is a social right and its promotion is the responsibility of the State, it must be accompanied by actions that directly impact the life of the citizen, in a gradual, continuous, systematic way offering students with disabilities a quality education process that expands inter-social relationships, ensures a teaching practice with principles of equity to overcome any and all difficulties that stand in the way of building a democratic school capable of producing a collective awareness of the value of citizenship.
