Young people from the FISOI and SOAMITSINJO associations, which are part of the SOA network, have received training in water management. The collaboration between the international network involved in training in production and the rural environment, or RI-FAR, is able to develop and train these young people...

The international network for training in production and the rural environment or RI-FAR supports the farmers' association of Madagascar in their field of action for the development of rural areas.

The SOA Network has been chosen to implement the RI-FAR project in Madagascar. The theme chosen for this project is to train young producers to take on responsibilities and strengthen their skills, either in terms of representation, or in terms of implementing environmentally-friendly agriculture or agroecology, or production that respects the life cycle of the environment...

The training courses taken by the young people in the SOA network therefore focus on water management. Mrs Natowesa, from the Tsinjolavitra foundation association in Ambohiboahangy in Antanetibe-Mahazaza, is satisfied with the training she received from the SOA MITSINJO association.

Mr. Rakotoniaina Constant Fabrice, from the Avotra Association in the commune of Antamboho, District of Arivonimamo, said that many benefits had been gained from this training in water management. The same seems to be true for Ms Lantonirina Françine, who lives in Antandrokomby and works for the FISOI association.
