Kurze Beschreibung

Madagascar is one of the poorest countries in the world. The consequences of the COVID-19 crisis pushed the poverty rate to a new record in 2020. According to the INSTAT study, confirmed by that of the World Bank, 81% of the population lived on less than USD 1,90 a day. Decentralization and the strengthening of communities is an important tool in the fight against poverty.

The project runs from 01.01.2023 to 30.4.2027 and has the following outputs:
1) Transparent local financial management,
2) Exchange & learning for efficient local good governance,
3) Social and political participation,
