Condoms for Adolescents - Abortion - Youth unemployment

Patricia in few months has made extraordinary progress in blogging and writing skills (especially in english). Today she is intensively answering to her supporters comments and is keeping things…politically correct.

“No sex before the marriage”: this rule still to be respected by some young persons, but the most of them can’t follow it! So, if we really can’t avoid sex before getting married, what to do?

In spite of its prohibition and many ways existent for avoiding it, abortion always exists, most of the time in total discretion. Why to abort? Is there any other solution aside it?

The unemployement was ever a problem for Madagascar since many years. In spite of this fact, no important and suffisant solution hasn’t yet found till now!

Dans la peau d’Amlah

Diana is known from her project to help Baby Kamba and when you discover her other posts, there are no doubts about her activist fiber:

In Amlah’s shoes (part two)

“Aryan , hold me in your arms, I am hurting”. “I am hurting” those were the words that I kept repeating and that are already overwhelming Aryan who does not what to do.
“3 murderers are needed to kill a being, a defenseless innocent being and still, we have yet to succeed.”

Everything started when Aryan told me that we were going to see his friend, a health care provider. He gave us 2 tablets of misoprost containing 4 pills each.
Aryan’s friend told us that one ought to be moving around a bit after taking the pills. At 4h30 am, Aryan wakes me up: “ Amlah, wake up, you need to take your pill now so that you feel better in the afternoon”. I refuse to wake up because I slept late last night. However, I suddenly realize the situation and rise up to take the pill.
“Aryan, Amlah, where are you two going so early ?” Aryan’s mum has obviously awaken.
“ We are just going for a run”. Her mum bought it and we head for the deserted streets so that no one wonders what we are up to.
Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my belly. I cry in pain in the middle of the street. The sun has arise and the mist that protected us from the public eye is slowly fading.
“Let’s walk faster” Aryan says. I am trying hard but we still need to stop from time to time in front of the Indian shops for rest. Crying, I tell Aryan “ I am tired and I am hurting everywhere”. We finally arrive at my place where my bed looks like a million bucks to me at this time. Aryan is looking for wet towels because I am starting to bleed.
As I wake up, I feel better because the pain has subsided a bit and my precious is next to me. He asks me how I feel and I told him I am fine. I am fortunate to have Aryan’s love because most guys would have left as soon as they hear of pregnancy. Everything goes as plan for the next 4 days. I am still bleeding a bit but deep inside, I am in great pain. “ Allah will never forgive me for having killed his creation”. I feel like eating seasoned manguo achar all the time. It’s not usual for me to still have cravings so I decided to take a pregnancy test again.
I yell in panic “Aryan, how come it’s still positive ? ” I am shouting at him as if it’s his fault. He runs outside to find his friend. They come back and he says:” we will give youa shot, my dearest, I am also tired of putting you in harm’ s way like this so we will take care of it one and for all”. So another road paved with broken glasses and sharp thorns waits me. I so want this to be over with. My body is internally bleeding and my heart is torn. Allah , have mercy on me.

Why

From Patrick

Some of them (children) aren’t  intitled to their right because of the differents kind of distinction or discrimination on account of race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status, whether of themselves or of their families. WHY?

Madagascar: Land of my people.

by Zouboon

It has been 48 long years since Malagasies have been given the authority to decide our nation’s, beautiful Madagascar’s fate.
There are still however some hints, even indirect ones, that show that foreign residents are in charge in our country.
Because it has only been one month that we celebrated our independence, our patriotic heart cannot but tell the truth. The questions rises : “do we Malagasies repudiate a young spouse, to give others a new partner”, or do foreigners dominate us and take advantage of our poverty? The reality is that foreigners enslave us and control wealth in Madagascar, and are the pampered ones. How many are those foreigners white (Europeans), Chinese, South Indians who all gather our island’s wealth. Many of them own huge local industries, and we Malagasies are their lowly employees. Those from abroad own the industries, which are built locally, the finished products are sourced from local material. However they are the ones getting the most gain, us Malagasies, whose sweat and material generate the finished products, only get the left over crumbs foreigners deign leave. And finally, those foreigners are much respected and feared. We Malagasies lick their feet and plead for the wealth that is ours in the first place.
There is a saying “The owner is begging for his own organs”. The saddest thing is our helplessness and indeed even our mentality has been altered. The belief that whites are above blacks has been internalized.
Following is my message : may the stepping over the vanquished stops, may we stop drowning in our milk like cockroaches do, because our love for Gasikara is eternal, indeed eternal. May our Gasikara never become a foreigners’ land.

The offer from Mrs Annellie Rozenboom to publish our bloggers’ articles and instauring a special FOKO column brought intensive and very creative writing from every corner of the island. The Madagascar English Journal is a weekly publication distributed to high-schools to promote the use of English (which is now Madagascar’s 3rd official language with French and Malagasy). They quickly recognized the versatily of the likes of Rondro or Ledheada and we are now frequently asked to submit more on culture and society in exchange of a small stipend converted in connexion hours (again to keep the focus on online presence). This interest in their work from the great staff at Mada Journal (a publication sponsored by the US embassy), their advices to help write in a more journalistic  way (integrate few lines of interviews, illustrate with pictures,…)  and the opportunity to be read by thousands were the reasons behind these last weeks’ flow of blogging.

Selection of post-blogging contest posts

Mahajanga posts

About 20 participants, web developers, university professors, college students and web professionals attended the workshop at the University of Antananarivo and were expecting a lot of this Ajax /Web 2.0 marathon training.

Douglas MBIANDOU led the workshop. He is a 31 years old computer engineer from the school of INSA Lyon. He is the technical director of the company Objis and also Chairman of the Club of Digital Solidarity.
Douglas MBIANDOU plays an important role in the development of materials for Francophone Africa thanks to his training at Objis. We will soon be a hundred Africans to have received free training thanks to his educational activities (“that’s 2500 Euro tax not included” my buddy says, smiling)

Originally from Cameroon, He travels between Paris and Dakar to try to minimize the digital gap between Francophone Sub-Saharan Africa and the rest of the world.. He already trained regions in West Africa and Central Africa in web 2.0and now he does it for the Indian Ocean.

The classes were loaded with information and helped us understand the bases of Web 2.0 (from a developer perspective), optimizing products to the fullest thanks to various very useful tools and links that were made available to everyone. –To quote Patson famous phrase “ça c’est CADEAU “(and that is free GIFT)

As far as the participants I was looking forward to meeting, they were nice and showed a lot of solidarity. most of them are members of AMUL, four of us are from the company ORCHID-Systems (A company specialized in publishing softwares for microfinancing, and the first Malagasy company of its kind in this field), three more were from e-saina (a company specializing in the development of open source software and network installation). I also recognized the Malagasy blogger Andry Hialy aka Za Gasy which is both a member of the AMUL office and one of the most diligent student at the workshop.

We all hope to use what we have learned for development of the country. Personally, I hope to strengthen the training capacity of the Foko Blog Club and the development of FOKO. So many thanks to the Francophonie !
For more information, you can consult the website of AMUL (ps. the site is still inweb 1.0 format, but surely a big overhaul will be made after this training).

GOO’BYE

Tamatave’s University city,

Is a green and clean campus,

Buildings and white houses,

They are all pretty indeed.

Time is running away,

For 4 years at University,

It seems like yesterday,

Because of our unity.

What wonderful time,

During our 4 years together,

According to me, it was fine,

But I don’t know for the other.

Now it’s time for saying goo’bye,

For all of my classmate, indeed my friends,

I’m sure that one day, we’ll meet again.

So Sir, miss let’s say goo’bye.

Special message for:

Harista and Priscilla Théline,

I love you like crystal clean,

And I won’t forget you forever more.

Hey! Don’t worry!

Be happy everybody,

‘Coz life is always like this,

I mean, please take it easy.

When you’re emotional,

Or get some problems,

You just read this poem,

I think that is all

I wrote this poem to memorize my best friends at University. Patrick loves you!!

by Patrick (please see also his very touching pictures)

Back in November 2007 during the first Blog Club with the Namana Serasera Madagascar, we were introduced to Ravatorano on the chatroom with these few lines :

08:09 ravatorano-madagascar mbola tsisy pro zany ato ra jogany an

there is no pro here jogany

08:09 ravatorano-madagascar mbola vao mianatra e

we’re still learning here

But the improvments he realized in such a little time and the notoriety i gained on the Malagasy blogosphere made us forget about Ravatorano! In fact his intensive blogging inspire continuously many forumists from the Namana Serasera Community and we can’t also miss his jovial presence during each chatroom at each FBC. So please welcome cheerfully Ravatorano !!!

best posts to be translated soon.

Les aventures des écoliers du Projet Ceibal se poursuivent et même si le temps est aux vacances nous n’avons de cesse de recevoir des nouvelles de leurs parts….a travers leurs blogs bien sûr! Il y a 6 mois a été lancé le laptop OLPC et nous avons la chance d’avoir dans notre communauté un projet parmi les premiers a expérimenté ces ordinateurs offerts a des écoliers en milieu rural et leur donnant accès a Internet. Je vous invite a venir aux nouvelles et d’y découvrir un environnement merveilleux permettant a ces enfants de se développer et d’étendre leurs connaissances.

Cette mise a jour sur leur site nous permet de voir que le projet va bien et que les innovations ne manquent pas. Ils ont alors invités des geeks pour développer les logiciels pour le laptop et permettre aux enfants de pratiquer diverses activités adaptées a leurs cultures. Comme cette (super marrante) histoire-a-raconter-soi-même dans laquelle l’enfant essaye d’aider un extra-terrestre a rentrer chez lui en répondant au fur et a mesure aux questions de l’histoires. Le projet Ceibal ne peut pas atteindre le succès , c’est-a-dire une bonne adaptation des enfants avec leur nouveau outil de travail sans la participation enthousiastes des informaticiens investis eux aussi pour aider la prochaine génération.

Vous connaissez déja et avez déja laissé des milliers de commentaires (n’est-ce pas?) sur les blogs et site webs de nos confrères par-dela les frontières et les océans de la grande famille de Rising Voices. Aujourd’hui je vous présente nos 6 autres petits frères et soeurs qui vont s’engager a nos côtés et avec votre soutien dans la plus belle des aventure. Cette fois-ci nous avons l’honneur d’avoir dans nos rangs des personnalités exemplaires et qui seront des modèles pour toutes les communautés du monde entier. Les nouveaux bloggers viennent tous du mileu Médical! Oui rien que ça! Il est désormais d’une importance vitale d’aborder les sujets de santé dans les milieux en voie de développement de manière ouverte et éthique de façon a éliminer les tabous et finalement de créer des échanges pour améliorer les situations dans chaque pays. 110 groupes ont soumis leur dossier venant de plus de 50 pays et seulement 6 ont été les heureux élus car ils ont démontré assez d’innovations dans leur futur usage des outils du média social tels que les blogs, podcasts et les vidéos. Tout cela pour aider les organismes qui travaillent dans le domaine de la santé en les informant et en formant les communautés avec lesquels ils travaillent.

Roumanie, dans la cité de Brasov, le projet Casa Speranti hospice formera des infirmières, des docteurs et le personnel médical dans l’enregistrement de vidéos et de podcasts pour partager les histoires touchantes des patients qui dans la plupart des cas sont touchés par une grave maladie.  Ils ont pris pour mission d’explorer et d’informer par le biais de ce moyen de communication sur les soins palliatifs et l’amélioration des soins en fin de vie notamment auprès des personnes vulnéfables telles que les personnes âgées, les enfants ou touchées du SIDA ou du cancer.

Dans le township de Kwa Mashu, dans la périphérie de Durban, en Afrique du Sud, la Kwa mashu Community Advancement Project (K-CAP) va utiliser leur Ekhaya Imagination Lab pour former 20 journalistes citoyens provenant de leur township sur la façon de reporter sur des histoirs locales assimilées aux problématiques de santé qui touchent leurs communautés. En 1998 Gugu Dlamini a succombé par jets de pierre car il a été publiquement révélé qu’il était touché par le virus du SIDA. Les 20 journalistes citoyens du K-CAP auront pour objectif de résoudre ce genre de traumatismes autour du sujet du SIDA et mettre l’attention du monde sur les nouvelles de leur localité.

Pavel Kutsev du centre Drop-in Center se servira des articles de son blog, des images, des podcasts et des vidéos pour partager son expérience sur les stratégies de réduction de risques a Kiev en Ukraine. Cette fenêtre ouverte au quotidien des personnes usant de la drogue sera décrite de façon a mettre en évidence la façon dont ce problème touche la réalité a travers tout le pays.

Orizonturi Foundation a Campulung Moldovenesc, Roumanieva créer un Blog Club pour les usagers du service de maladies mentales pour les aider en leur enseignant a entretenir un journal en ligne, mettre des vidéos en ligne et s’investir dans des réseaux sociaux. Toutes ces connaissances techniques leur permettront de partager leurs histoires et de former leur propre identité en ligne.

A Brazzaville au Congo l’organisme AZUR Development qui fait partie de l’initiative AIDS Network Africa va former le personnel des organisations qui travaillent dans le domaine des soins du SIDA pour produire des histoires et les mettre en ligne pour réduire les traumatismes et les tabous que ce sujet évoque dans les communautés discriminées. Chaque blogger va de cette façon spécifiquement documenter sa commuauté et la façon dont les personnes sont touchées par le SIDA.

En Russie , a St-Petersbourg, le projet FrontAIDS se servira du média citoyen pour donner une visibilit aux personnes touchées par le SIDA, les MST et les hépatites dans 20 régions de Russie. Par le biais d’un blog collectif , ils y vont y réunir toutes les informations utiles et les dernières nouvelles du domaine de la santé a travers la Russie.

De la diversité géographique et dans l’Approche aussi mais chacun partage le désir de former des activistes dans le domaine de la santé a travers de nouveaux outils média et de répandre leurs travaux a travers le monde pour éveiller toutes les communautés.

VOYEZ COMMENT NOUS RÉPANDONS LA BONNE NOUVELLE SUR LE BLOG DE RISING VOICES  A TRAVERS LE MONDE!

• LEDHEADA : Barikadimy and it’s life

http://ledhada.wordpress.com/2008/07/30/barikadimy-and-its-life/

Madagasikara has 6 differents university on each province,the university of Toamasina is one of them wich built in 1976 and calls BARIKADIMY UNIVERSITY because of the place where it lays.

The university has two departements.First;Departement of DEGS composed by 3 field:Economy, Managament and Laws.Second; Departement of Letters and Social science wich composed by 4 fields:History, Geography, Philosophy and French.

Students from different places of Madagasikara, Comores and other country of Africa comes there to follow their study in order to get good job in the future.

Entrance axam doesn’t exist in BArikadimy,good school report is enough to go to the university; also all student get scholarship.

Like the other university, Barikadimy has its own motto wich is:”FAHAIZANA SY FANAHY” or “KNOWLEDGE AND SPIRIT” in english.Knowledge via study and spirit in church.Religion like Chritian,Muslim and Advantist take care of student’s soul.

When we talk about study;every spaces like classroom, library and studyroom are occupied day and night especially one mouth before examination.Though, probleme as lack of administrative materials restain the student’s task.Consequently, some are oblige to find documetation out of the campus, subcribing in other library in town, using net and buying books at the market.

Despite the situation, the president of the university stills optimistic and finds the best way to get over this issue and encourages the student to keep on study.As result, 3 years now, partners such as old student, authority and some university from another country like Canada, France suplied Barikadimy in term of computers, books and funds to increase the level of the student.This year, classroom and rooms has been repaired in the cooperation with Ambatovy project,also some material like table, chair and boards has been renewed by the old student.Thanks to the partner, relation is become hopefull bettwen them and the university.

Apart from study; love and fashion occupied the student’s life.Consequently it is hard to find someone without partner at the campus.Love gains their life.Moreover, teenager think that life whithout love likes sauces whithout salt, but sometimes the situation turns bad.

Attracted by the fashion and money, pretty as they are, girls running after richman and stranger to make their fantasy true.As result they come to the net to find partner instead of documentation and the situation compromises the reputation of the university.

As young, student plays sport as football, handball,basketball and volleyball.Every year there is always tournement on those discipline and the match takes place at the campus where different entity runs for a winner.Every weekend, there is a contact party organizes by the entity to welcome the new student and for entertaining but sometimes either sport or party end on a little quarel between a group of student.This year it provokes scuffle between student from the south and north and now, curfew is setting in the campus.

• VIOLANCE : Relationship

http://violance.wordpress.com/2008/07/26/relationship/

Read more from Hkambora’s blog on the Antekaran Kingdom in the northern region of Madagascar. You will slowly discover than even if the location is different, most of the tribes share the same beliefs and practice the same traditions.

Reincarnation is another important aspect of Antakarana beliefs. The best known example of this belief is described in a story. Fitsanaganan’ny Maty

The Tsangantsainy is the name of the royal post or monument which is raised to symbolize the marriage of the Zafimbolafotsy dynasty with the Antakarana soil.
