Grant-winning photographers sheds light on Madagascar’s conservation guardians
Madagascan photographer Safidy Andrianantenaina has been awarded the revolutionary storyteller grant, a joint initiative by Photographers Without Borders and On the Edge. Andrianantenaina's work highlights the critical efforts of community conservation groups in Madagascar as they strive to protect the island's threatened forests.
These local guardians face mounting challenges in their fight against illegal logging, encroaching farmland, and wildfires, with limited resources hampering their efforts.
Through his lens, Andrianantenaina captures the dedication of these environmental stewards. The grant recognises Andrianantenaina's powerful storytelling, which brings global attention to Madagascar's environmental concerns and the vital role of community-led conservation efforts.
