Halt Poverty Responsible Tourism Madagascar

Foster grassroots community livelihoods by empowering local people to break the cycle of poverty using tourism-based activities. We seek to differentiate as the premier pro-poor organization in Madagascar. Tourism can be used as strategic tools addressing the various social problems such as unemployment and poverty. Education is one of the cornerstones of a fair and a responsible travel. We work with educational bodies to raise the awareness and knowledge of a fair travel. Three strategies to generate different benefits:
(a) Increase economic benefits: boost local employment, wages, local enterprise opportunities
(b) Enhance non-financial (cash) livelihood impacts: capacity building. Increase local access to services
(c) Enhance participation and partnership: create more supportive policy, planning framework
