In Madagascar…

Madi’s Mission works with Malagasy villagers living within the threatened spiny forest habitat. The spiny forest, located on the island’s southwest corner, is home to the Ring-Tailed Lemur as well as numerous birds, reptiles and mammals. Only 3% of this eco-region is protected in parks while the remaining wildlands are facing risks of rapid deforestation. Madi’s Mission educates and assists villagers of the spiny forest with methods to enrich their livelihood through sustainable conservation practices.
