Conservation of more than 500 fauna and flora species

Funding for 75 protected areas in 2025 has enabled the conservation of more than 500 species of fauna and flora, most of which are endemic to Madagascar and appear on the IUCN Red List.

FAPBM finances emergency situations with its Emergency Grant

In addition, the FAPBM provides funding for emergency situations. In 2025, for example, the amount of the FIS and FAR amounted to MGA 872,356,242 (USD 196,035.11).

While the level of threats to the natural resources in the protected areas funded by FAPBM has remained stable, forms of pressures are still weighing on these protected areas. The rate of deforestation in supported protected areas was 0.67% in 2024, compared to 0.68% in 2023.
