Environmental Education and Communication (EE&C) Assessment for Madagascar

摘要

Between June 5 and 26, 1994, Dr. Richard Grieser, consultant from Global Vision, Inc., to the GreenCOM project, was in Madagascar to execute an environment education and communication assessment for GreenCOM, under an agreement with the Global Bureau/AFR/ARTS/FARA. GreenCOM has produced five such assessments. A short study was conducted to obtain information on organizations and resources for Environmental Education and Communication (EE&C), and to identify possible strategies for future EE&C initiatives. The purpose of the study was to assist the USAID/Madagascar Natural Resource Office to take appropriate initiatives towards fulfillment of the Environmental Education and Communication objectives of the Environmental Action Plan (EAP), USAID Africa Bureau and USAID Environmental Natural Resource Policy and Objectives (Washington, DC). Site visits to headquarters and to field offices of organizations and agencies engaged in environmental education were made to interview those who are planning or implementing the work, and when possible, to speak with those who are the recipients.
