Nature-based tourism and conservation: support our efforts!
MITSINJO offers tours and forest hikes into two sites that are currently under the association’s management, the 700ha Analamazaotra Forest and the 9,900ha Torotorofotsy Ramsar site.
Revenue from nature-based tourism is used to finance all activities linked to local community development and conservation, including assistance in sustainable forms of agriculture, bee-keeping, establishment of village nurseries, health care, among others.
