Provide support to ensure the long-term conservation of five newly established protected areas in Madagascar: Daraina-Loky-Manambato; Mahavavy-Kinkony; Ankeniheny-Zahamena; Nosivolo and Menabe. These sites contain unique terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity, which is threatened by unsustainable land-use practices. The Node organizations present in these areas will provide alternative opportunities for the people living in and around these sites to reduce degradation and improve livelihoods.
