L'Homme et L'Environnement
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
L'Homme et L'Environnement (English name: Man and the Environment) is a small non-governmental organization based in Antananarivo, Madagascar, with the mission of developing economically and ecologically sustainable management of the natural resources in parts of Madagascar.
The organization works in five different areas outside of Antananarivo, with a common focus being ecotourism, medicinal plants, and experimental agriculture as alternatives to environmental degradation for local communities. One of the main areas it serves is the Vohimana Reserve, adjacent to Andasibe-Mantadia National Park.
Man and the Environment accepts foreign volunteers and researchers on long-term and short-term assignments, for a charge. Some facility in French is preferable but not required.
