Social advancement in Madagascar
Fianarana is a non-profit development project that contributes to the reduction of youth poverty in Madagascar's village community Fihaonana.
High youth poverty
Youth from Fihaonana are not able to pursue education
(university studies) after graduating from the local high
school, which results in a high rate of youth povert.

University studies and support with starting a career
Fianarana is aimed at needy, motivated young people from educationally disadvantaged families who have completed secondary school in Fihaonana and would like to go to university.

Preparatory year
A good degree starts with closing educational gaps during the one-year preparatory year in Fihaonana.
Career guidance
As part of the preparatory year, the young people also receive personal help in choosing a career, course of study and university.
Personal development
Qualified coaching encourages participants in the preparatory year to express themselves, their opinions and their vision.
Study and living costs
During the course of study, all relevant costs are covered, provided that the degree is completed within the specified period (3 years).
Shared accommodations
The students live in segregated shared flats in the capital Antananarivo, which are supervised by us.
Tutoring services
Access to suitable tutoring services and a renowned library expands students' knowledge.
Social work
Nomena, a qualified social worker, and Manitra, a caregiver, look after their protégés with great dedication.
Involvement of parents
Persons with custody are actively involved in the project and have to make their own contribution.
Organic food
The beneficiaries receive rice, vegetables, fruit, fish, meat and eggs directly from our organic farm in Fihaonana.
Data collection
We collect data and conduct our own surveys, which help us in particular with impact analysis.
Job application training
In due course, the beneficiaries learn how to write a good application and conduct a convincing job interview.
Independence
Depending on the field of study, professional independence is meaningful and effective and is individually supported by us.
Lawyer, agricultural engineer or car mechanic instead of poverty-stricken
After just four years of support, the beneficiaries pursue a qualified profession that guarantees a self-determined life above the international poverty line. Committed students are also supported in their Master's and, if applicable, doctoral studies.
