Discover how MapAction are helping emergency response capacity in Madagascar in this short video


Madagascar has experienced more than 50 cyclones since 2000.

In 2023, MapAction began working on Anticipatory Action programmes on Africa’s largest island. Anticipatory Action ensures measures are taken to protect communities before a disaster and can be sevenfold cheaper than responding after a disaster.
