In Madagascar, young entrepreneurs are committed to the fight against the coronavirus

Young people and the coronavirus, young entrepreneurs get involved

08 Jun 2020 - 00:00:00
The initiatives of young people in Madagascar are numerous in the face of the coronavirus. Despite the countless challenges affecting small businesses due to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as more difficult access to raw materials, limited transport, canceled/postponed projects and orders, young entrepreneurs are stopping at nothing. They try to adapt to the situation by creating initiatives that respond to the context. Tanjona Raveloson dreamed big. He first creates a 3D printed anti-projection visor and then he manufactures an artificial respirator NIV machine. Hanta Tiana Rajaonarisoa, head of a green company, has found other ideas to fill the shortage of hydroalcoholic gels in the capital by launching quothydroalcoholic gel for allquot in the form of individual pods. Marie Christina Kolo, ecofeminist and social entrepreneur, she created an ecological soap designed for vulnerable people in Madagascar during these difficult times of COVID-19 thanks to a solidarity system. Dozens of NGOs and associations have already joined this initiative.
