ZAHANA is
a non-governmental organization in Madagascar. Zahana
is dedicated
to participatory rural development, education, reforestation, revitalization
of traditional Malagasy medicine, and sustainable and environmentally-friendly
agriculture.
The goal of Zahana is to develop a community-based rural development project focused on priorities set by the villagers themselves. It is Zahana’s philosophy that development must be based on local needs and solutions proposed by local people. It is important to start small and stay focused on local priorities rather than on or agendas set somewhere else by national or international bodies. More (in English) click here.
