Abstract

This study examines investment dynamics and emerging trends in business, service sector development, and financial systems in Madagascar, with the aim of understanding how these elements interact to shape economic transformation. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected from 35 key informants representing public institutions, private enterprises, financial services, and development organizations. The findings reveal that investment plays a central role in driving economic activity; however, its impact remains uneven across sectors and regions, with a strong concentration in export-oriented agriculture and selected urban services. Entrepreneurial activity is expanding, yet it continues to face significant structural barriers, including limited access to finance, regulatory challenges, and weak infrastructure. The service sector shows gradual growth, particularly through digital financial services such as mobile money, which have improved financial inclusion, although the depth and diversity of services remain limited. The study also highlights the importance of governance and decentralization in shaping investment outcomes, with inconsistent implementation affecting efficiency and accountability. Furthermore, sectoral dependency on primary commodities increases vulnerability to external shocks, while digital transformation emerges as a promising but underutilized driver of service sector development. The study concludes that Madagascar’s economic progress is constrained by structural and institutional challenges, requiring coordinated efforts to enhance infrastructure, strengthen financial systems, promote diversification, and support digital adoption. These findings provide important insights for policymakers and stakeholders seeking to foster inclusive and sustainable economic development

Abstract

This study examines the role of career guidance in high school in reducing university dropout in Madagascar, with a focus on the Itasy region where students often face challenges in making informed academic and career decisions. The study aims to analyze how career guidance practices influence students’ readiness for higher education and their persistence in university. A qualitative approach was employed, involving 30 informants including high school students, teachers, school counselors, and university students. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using thematic analysis with triangulation to ensure credibility. The findings reveal that career guidance remains limited, irregular, and insufficiently integrated into school systems, leading to unclear career choices, low motivation, and difficulties in adapting to university studies. Social influences, particularly from families, also play a significant role in shaping students’ decisions, sometimes resulting in mismatches between interests and academic paths. The discussion emphasizes the importance of early, continuous, and context relevant career guidance to strengthen students’ self-awareness, adaptability, and decision-making skills. The study concludes that improving structured career guidance and fostering collaboration among schools, families, and communities can enhance students’ transitions to higher education and contribute to reducing university dropout in Madagascar.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the intersection of law, gender, and higher education in Madagascar by analyzing sexual harassment in public universities, with a focus on the University of Toliara. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected from 50 key informants, including 40 students (from first-year to doctoral level), 5 lecturers, 3 administrative staff members, and 2 lawyers selected through purposive sampling. Findings reveal that sexual harassment is closely linked to hierarchical power relations, with cases of conditional or quid pro quo practices tied to academic evaluation, disproportionately affecting female students. The study also identifies significant gaps between legal frameworks and institutional practices, alongside strong barriers to reporting such as stigma and fear of retaliation. These results highlight the need for strengthened legal enforcement, transparent institutional mechanisms, and gender-sensitive policies. The study contributes to legal and educational scholarship by emphasizing the role of universities as critical spaces for advancing gender justice and safe learning environments

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Atsimo-Andrefana, Madagascar, focusing on its evolution from voluntary practices into implicit obligations driven by social, institutional, and market pressures. Using a qualitative case study approach, 15 purposively selected informants, including company representatives, local communities, government officials, and civil society actors, were engaged through semi-structured interviews, observation, and document analysis, with triangulation and member checking ensuring credibility. The results show that CSR initiatives focus on education, health, infrastructure, and environmental management but are often sporadic, symbolic, and limited in impact. Stakeholder engagement is mostly consultative, and institutional constraints, such as weak governance and poor coordination, hinder sustained outcomes. Nevertheless, growing social expectations and reputational pressures are prompting companies to adopt more structured CSR practices, indicating a shift from soft law toward quasi-obligatory responsibilities with potential for meaningful local development.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of education in social transformation within the context of Fianarantsoa in Madagascar, with particular attention to how access, quality, and learning outcomes influence individual and collective trajectories. Grounded in a socio-educational perspective, the research addresses the gap between the widespread expectation that education leads to social mobility and the observed realities of persistent inequality and limited employment opportunities. A qualitative research design was adopted, involving purposive sampling of 20 participants, including teachers, students, parents, school administrators, and community leaders. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and supported by document analysis, then analyzed using a thematic approach to identify key patterns related to educational experiences and social impact. The findings indicate that education is highly valued as a pathway to improved living conditions and social recognition, reflecting its strong symbolic importance within society. However, disparities between urban and rural areas in terms of infrastructure, resources, and teaching quality contribute to uneven learning outcomes. Many students complete schooling without mastering essential literacy, numeracy, and practical skills, which limits their ability to access meaningful employment. The results suggest that education functions as a necessary but insufficient condition for social mobility, as broader socio-economic and institutional constraints shape its impact. The study highlights the need to improve the quality and relevance of education, strengthen teachers’ capacity, and address structural inequalities to enhance education’s contribution to sustainable development and social transformation

Abstract

This study examines the legal appropriation and territoriality of Madagascar's continental shelf as strategic instruments for sustainable development in southern Madagascar within the contemporary geopolitical context of the Indian Ocean. Grounded in the legal framework established by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the research explores how sovereign rights over marine resources may contribute to economic development, environmental protection, and maritime governance. Adopting a qualitative and interdisciplinary approach, the study combines doctrinal legal analysis, documentary research, and semi-structured interviews with stakeholders involved in maritime governance. The findings highlight that the Malagasy continental shelf constitutes both a legal and geopolitical asset capable of strengthening maritime sovereignty, promoting the sustainable exploitation of fisheries, energy, and marine resources, and enhancing regional cooperation. However, the effectiveness of legal appropriation remains closely linked to institutional capacities, integrated maritime governance, and ecosystem-based resource management. The study further demonstrates that sustainable development objectives can only be achieved through the articulation of functional sovereignty, environmental stewardship, maritime security, and the equitable inclusion of coastal communities. Madagascar's continental shelf therefore represents a strategic lever for fostering inclusive and sustainable maritime development in southern Madagascar.
