Project Description

The project to open and clean up the priority neighbourhoods of Antananarivo (DAQP), better known as « Lalankely », aims to improve the living conditions of nearly one million inhabitants by improving health, mobility, safety and access to employment.

The programme seeks to rehabilitate local mobility infrastructure in the priority neighbourhoods identified throughout Antananarivo (alleys – carriageways – footbridges) and improve public health and community infrastructure. The project especially focuses on disadvantaged neighbourhoods where infrastructure currently fails to meet the residents’ day-to-day needs and expectations.

An Innovative Photo Story Approach

As part of the evaluation of the Lalankely Programme in Antananarivo, Urbaconsulting developed an innovative photo story to capture and illustrate the transformations experienced in priority neighbourhoods.

Combining photographs, testimonies and field observations, this accessible and engaging format gives a voice to residents while highlighting the project’s tangible impacts on daily life. Easy to read, translate and replicate, the photo story offers a dynamic alternative to traditional evaluation reports.
