nathalie miniAntenna France is a charity NGO that provides humanitarian aid and fights malnutrition in Madagascar since 2005.

Antenna Technologies Antsirabé (ATA), with Nathalie RASOANAIVO as president, has experienced a strong development phase between 2005 and 2010, during which ATA contributed to the creation of 12 installations to grow spirulina (10 are still active today), representing 1450 m2 of spirulina pond surface.

This growth period allowed the charity NGO to create several jobs in Madagascar and to provide thousands of malagasy children with an effective nutritional supplement.

Antenna France encountered a difficult phase between 2011 and 2012, due to the political and economic situation. Additionnaly, the destruction of some installations by cyclones severing in those years didn’t help.

Nevertheless, in 2013, everything was back on a positive track.
