It is one of the poorest countries in the world by international standards and, accordingly, is clearly considered a <strong>Developing country<\/strong>. Many people have <strong>less than one dollar<\/strong>available to them per day for survival, and especially the children suffer greatly from this poverty.<br \/>\nBegging children with sad eyes or also child prostitutes belong in many <strong>Regions of Madagascar<\/strong>, but above all in the <strong>Capital Antananarivo<\/strong> have long been part of the cityscape. Western standards in terms of <strong>Education, training or health care system<\/strong> are still light years away from Madagascar. That is precisely why the <strong>Tourism<\/strong> so enormously important for this country and the people living there. In the following we would like to give you a small insight into the <strong>societal structures<\/strong> on the island and also point out the living situation of many children on the island. In this way we would like to make you receptive for what awaits you in some places of Madagascar, but at the same time we would like to show you how many improvements you as a tourist can bring to this poor country just by your mere presence.

While the <strong>Capital Antananarivo<\/strong> many places <strong>poverty-stricken<\/strong> and begging or starving people dominate the cityscape, just a few steps away there are also <strong>western looking luxury villas<\/strong>with which the <strong>rich upper class<\/strong> created a cozy and comfortable nest. The <strong>Middle class in Madagascar<\/strong> on the other hand, is less easy to recognize, since the people of this stratum generally lead a very modest life by our standards, but at the same time they are envied by many other Malagasy precisely for this life. <strong>Madagascar is a developing country<\/strong>However, technical progress has been making its way into this area for some years now. A major sign of this are the <strong>numerous cars<\/strong>The main reason for this is the high number of cars that push their way through the streets of the larger cities in endless lines of cars. Since the <strong>People from Madagascar<\/strong> cannot afford new cars, the cars are mainly powered by old diesel engines, which in turn pollute the already heavily polluted <strong>Environment in Madagascar<\/strong> additional burden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bg_white\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 bg_white border no_padding margin_bottom_content\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_bg text-center side_bar_padding\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/antsirabe-betafo-antsirabe-300x225.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"side_bar_img size-medium wp-image-1773 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/antsirabe-betafo-antsirabe-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Frog in Andasibe\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_content_div\">\n<p>However, the farther a traveler gets away from the capital cities, the clearer it becomes that social conditions on the island can be quite different. Many people <strong>in the countryside<\/strong> have lived for generations completely <strong>self-sufficient<\/strong> in their villages and communities and are still largely independent of technological developments in the cities. With their <strong>traditional agriculture<\/strong> people in the rural areas can survive well in principle, from the classical <strong>Rich-poor differentiations<\/strong> they are accordingly excluded. But also the <strong>Living conditions of these Madagascans<\/strong> may change significantly in the near future: The overexploitation of nature, which has been going on for several centuries now, is making itself felt in more and more regions - the soils are becoming infertile and karstified, and agricultural use of the same is then no longer possible. As soon as this development manifests itself even more clearly, the <strong>rural population of Madagascar <\/strong>have to deal with serious problems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bg_white\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 bg_white border no_padding margin_bottom_content\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_bg text-center side_bar_padding\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/imagesCA0NFT08.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" class=\"side_bar_img size-medium wp-image-585 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/imagesCA0NFT08.jpg\" alt=\"Frog in Andasibe\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/imagesCA0NFT08.jpg 275w, https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/imagesCA0NFT08-20x13.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 275px) 100vw, 275px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_content_div\">\n<h3>The children in Madagascar<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to the <strong>social structures in Madagascar<\/strong> then it is essential to take a look at the youngest members of this society.<br \/>\nThese have been particularly successful in the <strong>urban areas of the country<\/strong> not exactly easy and often have to fight for their survival. Basically the <strong>Education in Madagascar women's business<\/strong> and while this is the case in rural areas, especially with regard to the <strong>Family cohesion<\/strong> While this usually works out quite well, it proves to be completely different in cities like Antananarivo. In recent years and decades, a specific pattern has emerged whereby men often stay with their families for only a short time and then leave them sooner or later. The women then have to take care of the <strong>Supply for the children<\/strong> as well as take care of the financial burden of a family. This often goes wrong, which is why many <strong>Children in Madagascar<\/strong> far <strong>Below the poverty line<\/strong> live. Ten percent of all children in Madagascar die before they even reach their fifth birthday, and a school education is no more than a vague dream for most of them. The <strong>Illiteracy rate in Madagascar is around seventy percent<\/strong> and only in the last two years have real countermeasures been taken. For the country's children in particular, however, it is now time for the <strong>democratic new elections<\/strong> finally manifest themselves in reformations in the island state.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bg_white\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 bg_white border no_padding margin_bottom_content\">\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_bg text-center side_bar_padding\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/photos-famadihana2-300x226.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"226\" class=\"side_bar_img size-medium wp-image-310 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/photos-famadihana2-300x226.gif\" alt=\"Frog in Andasibe\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/photos-famadihana2-300x226.gif 300w, https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/photos-famadihana2-20x15.gif 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 no_padding\">\n<div class=\"home_content_div\">\n<p>Many <strong>Aid organizations<\/strong>The political upheavals in 2009 led to a complete change of the organization, which was primarily aimed at supporting the youngest children, but whose organizational roots were abroad. <strong>Withdrawn from Madagascar<\/strong>.

Only since the <strong>democratic new elections<\/strong> a new wind seems to be blowing in the country, which hopefully will bring positive changes for the poorest and weakest of the Malagasy society. At the beginning of this chapter, we pointed out that we not only want to show you the basic features of the social situation in Madagascar, but that it is also important to us to show you how the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.urlaub-auf-madagaskar.com\/en\/hintergrundinformationen\/tourismus\/\"><strong>Tourism in Madagascar<\/strong><\/a> can help to effectively combat poverty in this country. Many <strong>People in Madagascar<\/strong> could find permanent employment in the tourism sector and benefit from a <strong>secure source of income<\/strong> benefit. In parallel, the additional revenue in the treasury could be used to <strong>Education and health sectors<\/strong> strengthen. Currently, predominantly privileged children have the opportunity to <strong>to attend a school in Madagascar<\/strong>Many other children from the poorer population are still denied this. So if you have a <strong>Trip to Madagascar<\/strong> book, then you can always keep in mind that you are not only doing something good for yourself and giving yourself an unforgettable adventure, but that you are also supporting the population, the environment and the children of one of the poorest countries in the world.
