Trekking Through Science and Culture in Madagascar

February 10, 2025by: Maddie Jeffery - United StatesProgram: SIT Study Abroad: Madagascar: Biodiversity & Ntrl. Resource

Studying abroad in Madagascar was a transformative experience that blended field research, cultural immersion, and personal growth. I conducted an independent research project on chameleon thermoregulation in Marojejy National Park, designing my methodology, collecting data in remote rainforest environments, and presenting my findings at a symposium. This hands-on approach to learning deepened my understanding of conservation science and ecological research. Beyond academics, living with a host family allowed me to engage with Malagasy culture, improve my French language skills, and gain perspective on the challenges of conservation in a developing country. I adapted to a new way of life, from navigating bustling markets to taking bucket showers, and built lasting relationships along the way. This program pushed me outside my comfort zone, strengthened my resilience and adaptability, and reinforced my passion for environmental research and global engagement. Madagascar’s beauty, biodiversity, and people made a lasting impact on me, and I highly recommend this program to students interested in field-based learning, conservation, and cultural exchange.
