None of the team will forget the time spent on the project. Feedback Madagascar do great work and we feature on their website. See link- feedbackmadagascar.org/news/… most of us will also be bringing home some paint splattered clothing as a memento!! A magnificent team effort.
Great to have partnered on this in our priority area of the COFAV rainforest where we continue to support community-based conservation action & education.

Wonderful to have attended this event and we look forward to further exchange on progress!
Key to ‘regreening Madagascar’ is identifying the right places for reforestation.
Delighted to join the launch of a @KewScience project working to do just that - & the first in #Madagascar to be supported by the new 🇬🇧-funded Global Centre on Biodiversity for Climate, @gcbc_org.
It was an absolute pleasure for the team at Feedback Madagascar and Ny Tanintsika to host the British Ambassador, @Davidwillashley , his wife and team to visit post-cyclone projects funded by the @UKinMadagascar.

Madagascar is home to six of the world’s eight baobab species. Around the Avenue of the Baobabs, charcoal is the only source of fuel and one of few sources of income in the countryside. We work to find alternative incomes and fuel sources to enhance livelihoods and biodiversity.
Rapiera, one of our superstar community leaders, works hand-in-hand with Feedback Madagascar to improve his life and his community through agroforestry.
Great income and delicious protein. Our promotion of fish farming is a popular business option with many benefits including the reduction of forest exploitation. #proteinsavestheday #fishfarming #greatinitiatives #solvinghungertogether #feedbackmadagascar #nytanintsika

While not in school, this 12-year-old cattle herder wears a traditional woven reed gilet to protect him from the rain, has a wooden stick to help him walk through deep mud, and holds a catapult used to ward off birds from the rice fields.
