Project Miaro vote!
Azafady is proud to announce that project Miaro has been nominated by High Sierra in an amazing annual competition and is now in the running for 25 k sponsorship from the European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA)! And we need your help to secure this funding!
EOCA have left the decision of which project is going to get funded entirely in the public’s hand! For the next two weeks they are running a poll and the organisation with the most votes at the end will win the grant. This unique competition is being run in conjunction with National Geographic.
Project Mairo supports local people to provide alternative sources of timber, replant endangered palm species, and maintain firebreaks. Additionally, through the project ecotourism infrastructure will be developed through the establishment of a trained guiding association and local representation improved through regional platforms. In total, the project involves the planting of 19,000 trees to reduce community dependency on forest fragments which play a crucial role in providing refuges for biodiversity. http://www.madagascar.co.uk/projects/miaro.htm.
