Since November 2023, the environmental education program implemented by Madagasikara Voakajy in the Mangabe-Ranomena-Sahasarotra Protected Area, with support from the Conservation Leadership Programme, has had remarkable effects on local communities, particularly in the villages of Avolo and Andazaona.

As part of our mission for conservation and ecological restoration, Madagasikara Voakajy is committed to rehabilitating degraded ecosystems in the Key Biodiversity Area of Lake Tseny, Sofia region. This activity aligns with our second strategic pillar, which is the restoration of natural habitats, a crucial step to ensuring the long-term survival of Madagascar's biodiversity.

From November 9 to 19, 2024, the second workshop of the "Nursery Exchange Project" (NEP) took place in two key sites: Mangabe, Moramanga, and Ivoloina, Toamasina. This project aims to promote the exchange of best practices between three conservation organizations to strengthen efforts to restore degraded forests in eastern Madagascar.

The SHEP program (Smallholder Horticulture Empowerment & Promotion) aims to transform agriculture into a market-oriented activity. From October 21 to 24, 2024, several staff members from Madagasikara Voakajy, along with representatives from local communities, had the opportunity to participate in training on this approach in Antananarivo.

October 25, 2024, marks another celebration of National Lemur Day, held under the theme "Lemurs, a National Treasure, a Global Pride". This day serves as a special occasion to remind us of the significance of these iconic animals of Madagascar and the essential role they play in our ecosystems.
