WHERE WE WORK
Boky Mamiko is currently active in North Madagascar, particularly in the district of Ambanja (region Diana) and the district of Bealanana (region Sofia). These are among the most disadvantaged regions of Madagascar, due to the distance from the capital of Antananarivo, where most of the economic, educational, social and political activities are concentrated. The bad conditions of the national road system make the physical distance from the capital (about 900 km) even longer (about two-days travel). Aside from the touristic island of Nosy Be, Diana region is known for the cocoa plantations along the Sambirano river. Sofia is a landlocked region, which is very disconnected and where poverty and child marriages are rampant.
In these regions, we collaborate with six schools providing them different kinds of support according to their needs, from books to scholarships, financial support for the teachers' salaries, the school canteen or teachers' training:
​
-
Saint Joseph school (430 students from pre-school to high school) and the connected student hostel Casa Pasquale (100 resident girls and boys) in Maherivaratra
-
Mamiko school in Djangoa (275 students from pre-school to lower secondary school)
-
S. Giovanni XXIII school in Beramanja (150 students from kindergarten to primary school)
-
Docenda school in Anjanojano (180 students from pre-school to lower secondary school)
-
Saint Laurent school in Beandrarezona (400 students from pre-school to lower secondary school)
-
Notre-Dame de la Consolata in Beandrarezona (high school, 30 students in first year)
