Madagascar programs / Cornell food and nutrition policy program (CFNPP)
Final report of Private Agencies Collaborating Together (PACT) on a contract (10/96-2/00) to foster civil society (CS) in Madagascar, with emphasis on increasing citizen participation in policymaking aimed at alleviating poverty (RARY project). The value and opportunity of CS participation in governance, as perceived by government officials in both Fianarantsoa and Mahajanga, has evolved dramatically as a result of the project. In both cities, officials have gone from a rather negative stance to establishing durable mechanisms to include CS organizations in public decisionmaking. In Mahajanga, the mayor reserved two seats on the City's steering committee to CS representatives and collaborated fully with neighborhood associations federated under the CS organization Hery Miray in negotiating the City's water privatization program. The City provided Hery Miray with access to all relevant information and to city technicians. The federation had significant impact on City policy regarding water management. CS organizations are now part of the City's protocol lists and are present at all significant events. Hery Miray is regularly consulted prior to decisions regarding neighborhoods.
