Redéfinition de la politique linguistique dans le système éducatif à Madagascar : rapport du Task Force

2005

In collaboration with the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Madagascar, the National Ministry of

Education and Scientific Research in Madagascar (MENRS) appointed and convened a Task

Force in October 2005. The Task Force here presents a report from the survey lasting from 17

to 28 October, mostly in Antananarivo, to prepare a larger study on a ”Redefinition of the

policy of linguistics of the educational system of Madagascar” with special focus on the

primary school. The Task Force worked in close collaboration with the Ministry of Education

and visited some primary schools in Antananarivo and in the Toamasina province. A

substantial amount of work was put into the elaboration of a new Draft for Terms of Reference

(ToR) for the future work to redefine the policy of linguistics of the educational system. The

ToR constitutes Annexe 3 in this report. The Task Force also made a preliminary collection

on important concepts, documents, and institutions related to policy of linguistics included in

this report. In addition the report presents some impressions from the visits in the schools.

Finally, the report presents propositions for further collaboration between professional

institutions in Madagascar and Norway.
