Madagascar has long been known as home to unique and diverse species of wildlife. Today, under the capable leadership of Marc Ravalomanana and embracing a new philosophy of responsible development with increased emphasis on biodiversity and cultural richness, Madagascar may be turning the corner after the political turmoil of 2002. This site will examine Madagascar's uniqueness and explain why the Malagasy people can look toward a brighter future.
