EU procurement notice published on Tenders Electronic Daily (TED). Buyer: Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. Buyer country: DEU. Place of performance: MDG. TED publication number: 536012-2026.

Subject: The "Programme d'appui au développement durable et intégré en périphérie des aires protégées" (PADDI+) is cofunded by the European Union and the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ), in collaboration with the Ministère de l'Environnement et du Développement Durable (MEDD). The program aims to reduce the pressures on protected areas by promoting the sustainable and integrated development of communities living around national parks, as an alternative to the illegal exploitation of natural resources in protected areas.

The program is implemented in close collaboration with other technical and financial partners, such as the Agence française de développement (AFD), as part of the Team Europe Initiative on the Green Deal. PADDI+ is supporting local communities living around seven protected areas (i.e. Andohahela, Ankarafantsika, Ankarana, Analamerana, Marolambo, Midongy du Sud and Montagne d"Ambre).
