• The economic and social situa1on in Madagascar remains very worrying (9 million poor people) and is aggravated by epidemics, hurricanes, the poli1cal crisis that has paralyzed the economy while the country is already heavily indebted
• The educa1on system in Madagascar is heavily affected by the economic situa1on and by all natural disasters
• The current budget for educa1on remains low, affec1ng the school environment and thus the quality of educa1on.
• This lack of resources par1cularly affects families in precarious situa1ons, which oYen have difficulty financing the schooling of their children.

• 4,000 children under 5 years old in the world die every day because they don’t have safe drinking water
• Unsafe water and lack of sanita1on account for 80 percent of diseases, and kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war
• Access to safe water in schools increases a^endance, academic achievement and children’s sense of dignity
• With the access to clean water, everyone could have a be^er chance to fight poverty: – disease outbreaks and deaths could drop – girls could be more likely to go to – and stay in – school – women could be empowered to be seen as equals in their homes and in their
community.
• That’s the ripple effect.
Watter Supply!

• Drought is recurrent in the south of Madagascar. The last harvest was severely compromised by the lack of rain, and consequently, so was the capacity of households to feed their children.
• By the end of 2008, almost 400,000 people were living in food-‐insecure districts across Madagascar. The situa1on has only worsened since. Up to a quarter-‐million children are now reportedly at risk of disease and malnutri1on.
• A recent nutri1on survey supported by UNICEF in five districts shows that global acute malnutri1on rates in children under the age of five have reached serious levels. Addi1onal surveys are planned in two addi1onal drought-‐affected regions.
• According to the World Health Organisa1on (WHO), 42% of Malagasy children under five are underfed, while acute malnutri1on affects 9% of young children.

• It is necessary that young people are able to make the right decisions, taking into account their health, their educa1on, but also their right.
• Today, worldwide, more than 8/10 children are enrolled in school. It is a great progress but we must find a way for all children to a^end school.
• Did you know that the majority of children in Madagascar 5 to 14 years old work and a fiYh of adults can not read or write?
• It is essen1al to go to school if we want to find a job later. • For everyone, knowledge is the most effec1ve tool to transform the
world.
Education!"A child who does not go to school, it’s a whole people that does not grow”!
