Abstract

O presente artigo pretende avaliar o efeito da Universidade do Huambo para a economia da região. Para isso enquadra-se, formula-se, calibrase e simula-se, para diferentes cenários um modelo de interacção espacial para a Cidade e Província do Huambo que afere os efeitos pela procura da variação do ensino universitário no Huambo. Os resultados permitem confirmar que o isolamento de uma região face ao exterior tem efeitos negativos no crescimento da sua economia. Assim, o impacto de um pequeno aumento do emprego da Universidade previsto para o período compreendido entre 2004 a 2009, que resulta apenas no aumento de 413 de actividade básica, traduz-se também numa maior abertura da economia o que implica uma mudança no multiplicador do emprego básico de 1,618 para 1,621 e uma variação do multiplicador do rendimento per capita de 5,512 para 5,521.
