Ravoninirina Injaniaina Virginie

I'm a Malagasy woman, married, childless, from the highlands of Madagascar. I come from a commune that is the most isolated and farthest from road infrastructures. My childhood was spent in traditional farming and animal husbandry. These challenges shaped me and pushed me to become who I am today. My aim is to contribute to the development of rural areas while preserving their cultural and environmental heritage.

I hold a master's degree in applied entomology and a professional diploma in agronomy. I am passionate about environmental management, in particular biodiversity and forest conservation, which led to my first position as manager of the western zone of the Anjozorobe-Angavo protected area, managed by the FANAMBY association.

The forest awakens in me a deep sense of belonging, no matter where I am, and I am determined to devote my efforts and my career to its preservation. Thanks to Health in Harmony, I have the opportunity to realize my professional dream and contribute to safeguarding ecosystems while promoting human well-being.
