Contact: [email protected] FOREWORD This national study on school exclusion and ways to improve primary school inclusion was conducted at a time of great difficulty and uncertainty for Madagascar. The crisis that the country is currently experiencing, has had a considerable impact, particularly on the health and nutritional status of children and access to potable water. The education sector is also paying a very heavy price for this situation and, to date, more than one child in four does not have access to primary school education. Short-comings in the Malagasy education system, combined with the daily plight of households, means that over one million children lack access to basic education. We are therefore at a crossroads. Either we carry on in the same direction and run the risk of ruining the future of a very large number of children and the country in general, or we use this crisis to create a sustainable, inclusive, quality education system. The Government and all partners working in the education sector, at the local, national and international level, should make it a priority to develop the necessary mechanisms to include the most vulnerable children in the primary education system, in the face of this crisis. We should also make use of this occasion to build a society that is prepared to fight against all forms of inequality and promote diversity. Education has a key role to play. Schools should not be content with teaching children only how to read and write, but should play a vital role in promoting cultural diversity and fighting against all forms of discrimination. While this study highlights the amplitude and mechanisms of primary school exclusion, it also underlines the efforts taken by all community stakeholders, schools and households to make the educational system more inclusive. A certain number of methods and tools already exist to promote primary school inclusion but this study must lead to specific actions. To enable all children, even the most marginalised, to have access to basic quality education, the fight against all forms of exclusion, in a coordinated and joint manner is necessary. However, without extensive mobilisation of all actors involved and a comprehensive strategy, it will not be possible to fight effectively against all forms of school exclusion. Only a fully inclusive education system will have the capacity to build the knowledge-based society that Madagascar needs for its future. In supporting the country’s efforts to develop a bona fide inclusive education system, the international community has a key role to play.The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) places particular importance on equity and therefore has a specific responsibility to encourage and help all children who do not have access to basic education. In collaboration with all education actors in Madagascar, one of our priorities is to enrol all out-of-school children as quickly as possible. Even though we are at a crossroads, we must have the courage and the determination to chose the path that will allow all children to fully exercise their right to quality education. Steven Lauwerier UNICEF Representative, Madagascar ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study was commissioned and funded by UNICEF Madagascar and carried out in collaboration with the Ministry of Education (MOE). We would like to express our appreciation for all those who took part in the design, preparation, implementation and development of this report. We would also like to thank the Regional Education Departments (DREN) and School Districts (CISCO) for their support and in particular the many principals, teachers, Fokontany leaders, FRAM presidents, parents and children, for their willingness to answer our questions and share their opinions. We also extend our sincere thanks to the 60 representatives from the MOE, as well as the national and international organisations, working in the field of inclusive education that participated in our preliminary workshop in October 2011.

    KEW BULLETIN (2017) 72:15 ISSN: 0075-5974 (print) DOI 10.1007/S12225-017-9677-6 ISSN: 1874-933X (electronic) A new species of critically endangered edible yam endemic to northern Madagascar, Dioscorea irodensis (Dioscoreaceae) and its conservation Paul Wilkin1 , James A. Kennerley2, Mamy Tiana Rajaonah3, Geodain Meva Huckël4, Feno Rakotoarison4, Tianjanahary Randriamboavonjy3 & Stuart Cable1 Summary. Morphological character data are used to show that a distinct morphotype of Dioscorea L. from the Irodo valley (East of Sadjoavato) in Antsiranana Province of Madagascar is an undescribed species, differing in its leaf arrangement, pubescence form and male inflorescence structure from all other taxa. It is described as Dioscorea irodensis Wilkin, Rajaonah & Randriamb., illustrated and a distribution map and ecological information provided. It is known from three sites, but is likely to have been eradicated from one of them. The population that has been studied in the field contains a very low number of adult plants. Tubers have been extracted for use as food at a level that appears to be unsustainable. Thus its provisional IUCN conservation status assessment is that it is critically endangered (CR). Its vernacular name in Irodo is Bemandry. Famintinana. Ny toetra sy ny bikan’ny oviala dia azo ampiasaina hanehoana fa miavaka ny oviala iray, izay hita tao anatin’ny lohasahan’Irodo (Atsinanan’i Sadjoavato, faritanin’Antsiranana) ao Avaratr’i Madagasikara, ary tsy mbola voasoritra ny mombamomba azy. Mampihavaka azy amin’ny hafa ireto toetra manaraka ireto: ny fipetraky ny ravina, ny fisian’ny volo, sy ny firafitry ny tahom-bony lahy eo aminy. Nosoritana ho Dioscorea irodensis Wilkin, Rajaonah & Randriamb.

Astiella is an herbaceous genus endemic to Madagascar, originally described with a single species A. delicatula Jovet. Molecular and morphological evidence place it in the tribe Spermacoceae s. lat. of Rubiaceae. During herbarium studies and fieldwork in Madagascar, 11 new Astiella species were identified and these are described here: A. antongilensis Groeninckx sp. nov., A. antsalovansis Groeninckx sp. nov., A. confusa Groeninckx sp. nov., A. deblockiae Groeninckx sp. nov., A. desseinii Groeninckx sp. nov., A. homolleae Groeninckx sp. nov., A. latifolia Groeninckx sp. nov., A. longifimbria Groeninckx sp. nov., A. perrieri Groeninckx sp. nov., A. pulla Groeninckx sp. nov., and A. tsaratanensis Groeninckx sp. nov. The genus Astiella now holds 12 species in total that are all endemic to Madagascar.

Since 2016, Monitoring has been expanded in other villages where network of investigators have been established in the various potential fishing areas. At each catch landings, an investigator collects tuna catch data and other catches, and also performs sampling. The date of landing, the time at sea, fishing zone, the weight and total number of individuals landed are recorded; and measurements of tuna and tuna like species are conducted. According to the catch monitoring since the pilot phase in 2015, it can be seen that the tuna season in the northern waters of Madagascar is from June to October. In 2016, catches from small-scale fisheries in these two pilot villages reached 102 tons, including 59 tons of tuna and 43 tons of other catches. The tuna average catch is estimated at 5.3 tons per month. In 2017, total catches in the North of Madagascar reached 3 704 tons including 80 tons of tuna and 4 tons of swordfish from 192 692 landings. Indeed, tuna represents only 2% of total catch for these villages because small-scale and artisanal fishermen still face a challenge, which is the lack of appropriate equipment for catching tuna and tuna like species.
