In 2018, we started the construction of a new school in Amparamanina, a rural village of about 6,000 inhabitants located 350 km from Antananarivo, in the heart of Madagascar's rice fields. In a context where the public school was collapsing due to overcrowding and infrastructural shortcomings, we chose to offer a solid and inclusive educational alternative to the local community.
The project led to the creation of a complete school complex, with sections for nursery, primary, and secondary school, capable of accommodating over 550 children. Thanks to this initiative, children can finally study in adequate, safe, and serene environments, with better opportunities for learning and growth.
The school is not only a place of instruction but a safeguard of hope for an area marked by poverty, unemployment, and high youth emigration. In a country where less than 70% of children complete primary school (UNESCO, 2022), this project helps to reduce school dropout, strengthen social inclusion, and promote local human capital.
Today the school is fully operational and continues to build, day after day, the future of Amparamanina's new generations.
We invest in school infrastructure to guarantee educational environments that are safe, inclusive, and functional for the development of young people's skills.

Amparamanina is a rural village located about 350 km from Antananarivo, in one of the most isolated areas of Madagascar. Families primarily live on subsistence farming and small livestock, with scarce economic resources and difficulty accessing health and educational services. The community's strength is its great social cohesion and ability to resist difficulties with a spirit of solidarity, valuing the land and local products. However, the lack of school infrastructure remains a crucial weakness: many children do not have the opportunity to receive a basic education. This is why the construction of a new school represents a decisive investment to offer concrete opportunities and strengthen the development of the village.
Each project is developed in collaboration with local communities and aims to promote education, personal growth, and sustainable development.
