Where We Work
- Established in 2010, the Madagascar Biodiversity Partnership has field stations located in four regions of Madagascar, as well as the MBP office located in the capital city of Antananarivo.
- Each field station is home to a different ecosystem with different pressures on the wildlife and the people.
- Click the dots to learn more about each field station.
Our mission
Working alongside local communities to restore and protect Madagascar’s remaining forests and diverse wildlife through research, education & outreach
Our reforestation vision
This map is a planning tool for the future, a window into a vision that’s growing. Each dot marks progress in our 100,000-hectare reforestation footprint.
KAFS stands as the central hub for this vision, with two upcoming substations:
- Tsitola, which will become the Varijatsy Ecolodge
- Vatovavy, which will host the Aye-aye Ecolodge
Each substation will oversee monitoring programs for critically endangered species including the Greater bamboo lemur, Black-and-white ruffed lemur, and the endangered aye-aye.
This map highlights not only what has already been built and accomplished, but also reveals gaps: additional nurseries needed to make operations more efficient and reduce long-distance seedling transport.
By strategically adding more nurseries, we can directly support the creation of wildlife corridors between major forest fragments and habitat, strengthen biodiversity under the “Big Dipper” Reforestation Plan.
Preliminary estimates suggest the need of 08 additional nurseries, mostly in the western portion of the footprint, plus targeted locations to expand and protect isolated forest fragments.
