Summary
In malagasy, Banjin’ala means “Imagine the future forests”. The Banjinala Initiative aims to facilitate private sector investment towards the re-greening of Madagascar, biodiversity conservation and poverty alleviation. There are tremendous opportunities through virtuous agro-ecological supply chains, quality carbon projects, CSR investments, and the restoration of abandoned lands. There are also many obstacles, which the project aims to lift. We will develop a national strategy through an innovative approach mobilising collective intelligence, and will advocate for its implementation across the country.
