PHOENIX & ORCHIDACEAE Association

The Association's mission is to eradicate, if not reduce, the 3 scourges that plague the island of Madagascar: - Famine: Madagascar is suffering the full force of the consequences of climate change, resulting in an extremely arid drought in a south that is already very dry to begin with, - unsanitary conditions: waste that has been accumulating for many decades and generates many diseases - loss of biodiversity: linked to the trafficking of precious timber and the practice of ancestral crops. The actions planned to counter these scourges are: - partnership with an emergency humanitarian aid organization to feed the populations of arid regions - recycling and recovery of waste to transform it into compost, briquettes, furniture, skips for waste collection, to produce energy - the creation of solar panel schools to teach agroecology and agroforestry. The Association wishes to transform the weaknesses of Madagascar into a great strength that would allow this country rich in biodiversity, in a young population, with living spaces to occupy, to become economically autonomous and to know how to repel the threatening scourges by living habits adapted to the 21st century, while remaining faithful to its cultural identity.
