Madagascar offers travelers an unparalleled glimpse into a world of unique biodiversity, with 90% of its wildlife found nowhere else. Visitors fall in love with its rainforests, baobab trees, and pristine beaches.

In Madagascar, approximately 75 percent of people live on $2.15/day or less, making it one of the world’s poorest nations. Around 76 percent of NGO funding is from foreign sources, while domestic contributions remain low. Massive deforestation affects over 90 percent of native forests, compounded by poor school infrastructure in rural areas. Volunteer support in reforestation efforts, environmental education, and teaching is vital to biodiversity conservation and community upliftment.
