Review for Public-Private Alliance Foundation, Hastings on Hudson, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The ASAMA Project in Madagascar.
1.National context
Madagascar is a low-income and developing country in the Indian
Ocean, ranked 155th out of 187 countries on the United Nations
Human Development Index.
Primary education enrolment and completion rates are among the
targets that will not be met in the development goals if more supports are not provided.
According to UNESCO, Madagascar is experiencing huge difficulties in
improving its literacy rates, which are 64.5% and 64.9% respectively
for adults and young people.

2.The components of the ASAMA program are designed to develop an
intensive learning method to encourage the return of young
teenagers and adults with low literacy skills to elementary school.

In ten (10 ) months (compared to five years for a normal course from Grade 1 to 5 ), they are able and qualify for the examination of the "Elementary Primary
Studies Certificate "(EPSC) with an average 80% success rate.

2) The implementation of the ASAMA program requires prior
compliance by the organizers with the following criteria :
 Identify classes of at least 30 teenagers and adults in poor areas;
 Obtain permission from parents and local authorities;
 Find premises to host the training ;
 Engage local and international partners such as PUBLIC PRIVATE ALLIANCE FOUNDATION (PPAF ) to support learners, provide school meals, cover various school supplies expenses and teachers 'salaries;
 Prepare and assist for the EPSC final examination

PPAF's assistance and partnership are highly instrumental in helping the ASAMA project reach its goals.
