From the article:
"Madagascar est un pays pauvre où plus de 75 % de la population vit en dessous de 1,90 $/jour et environ 50 % des enfants de moins de 5 ans souffrent de retard de croissance. Le taux d’abandon scolaire reste également parmi les plus élevés. Les dernières enquêtes relèvent en effet un taux de survie en dernière année du primaire s’élevant à 36,1 % en 2015. L’abandon scolaire et/ou la mise au travail des enfants sont souvent liés à la pauvreté des ménages."
