ASSOCIATION MAMYNYSOA

The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women is a critical opportunity for us to reflect on the global issue of gender-based violence and reinforce our commitment to supporting women and girls. As an association dedicated to empowering women and girls, we stand united in the fight against all forms of violence and discrimination. The Global Issue of Violence Against Women: Violence against women and girls is a global epidemic that affects millions of lives every year, in every country, community, and culture. It can take many forms physical, emotional, sexual, and economic and often goes unnoticed or unreported due to stigma, fear, or societal norms. According to UN Women, 1 in 3 women worldwide will experience some form of violence in their lifetime. These statistics reflect not just an individual issue, but a systemic problem that affects communities and nations. The founder of MamynySoa Association speaking to women in her class.

As the summer heat sets in, the Mamynysoa Association has launched a crucial initiative to promote better hydration and hygiene for children in the community. This project was born out of the association’s observations that many children either weren’t carrying water bottles or, in some cases, didn’t have access to one. Moreover, it became evident that many children were struggling with excess mucus, highlighting a need for improved hygiene habits. In response to these challenges, Mamynysoa   association distributed eco-friendly gourd water bottles to encourage children to drink more water, especially as temperatures soar. The bottles are not only an environmentally friendly alternative but also serve as a practical tool to remind children to stay hydrated throughout the day. Alongside the water bottles, handkerchiefs were also provided to help children address hygiene concerns. Many children were seen with mucus, making it clear that promoting good habits around blowing the nos...

 In the rural community of Isahafa, the headquarters of the MamynySoa Association, roads are more than just paths; they are lifelines. Children use them to reach school, parents walk them to get to work or the market, and families rely on them every day. But during the rainy season, these roads become almost impassable  muddy, slippery, and dangerous . Workers, children are forced to remove their shoes and walk barefoot through the mud just to go to work and to go to school. It’s unsafe, uncomfortable, and puts them at risk of illness or injury. At MamynySoa Association , we knew we couldn't wait for help to come from elsewhere. With only two months before the heavy rains, we took the initiative to rent a road compactor for two days and improve the most damaged parts of the road. Our goal was simple but urgent: make the road safer, especially for children. Of course, we didn’t do this alone. The project was carried out in collaboration with the municipality and the local r...

  At Association MamynySoa , we believe in giving children the tools to dream big, explore new opportunities, and build a brighter future. In our rural community, access to quality language education is limited. Public schools teach primarily in Malagasy, our local language, which is vital for preserving our culture and heritage. But we recognize that learning additional languages like French, our official language, and English, the international language, is crucial for broadening horizons, expanding knowledge, and opening doors to global opportunities. MamynySoa has launched a Language Club where children can explore French and English in a fun, interactive, and welcoming environment. Our sessions are held every Wednesday afternoon at our association’s learning space. During these two-hour meetings, we engage children with songs, games, storytelling, and conversations all designed to make language learning enjoyable and accessible. Our mission is simple: to make learning lang...
