IDEA ACADEMY NGO · 5 years (2026–2031)

Training alone is not enough. The momentum has to become a lasting capacity.

FOREG has run for 4 years across the Atsimo-Andrefana, Matsiatra Ambony, Analamanga, DIANA regions. That continuity proves there is both demand and talent. TranonAI gives them a permanent home in which to put what they have learned to work.

The impact chain

  1. 01

    FOREG

    The way in

    A travelling regional training programme in data and AI. Four years running: it creates interest, trains young people and spots regional talent.

    TranonAI

    Development

    The House of Artificial Intelligence, planned across all 24 regions. Premises, connectivity, equipment and mentoring: it stops the momentum FOREG creates from fading away.

    IA-ANATRA

    Taking responsibility

    Support for participants and integration of the NGO's ambassadors, who feed back the real needs from the field.

    Sector platforms

    Useful services

    IA-ANTOKA, IA-AVOTRA and I-TOMADY turn those skills into services for public decision-making, agriculture and community health.

Where, and in what order

TranonAI is designed to cover the regions of Madagascar. The pilot sites are recommended in order of urgency; the other regions follow as partnerships are secured.
