    Le Programme de gestion durable de la faune sauvage (SWM Programme) développe des solutions innovantes basées sur des projets de terrain dans treize pays. À Madagascar, le SWM Programme vise à développer un modèle de gestion durable de la faune sauvage dans les zones périphériques et au sein du Parc Naturel Makira. L’objectif est ainsi d’assurer la durabilité des ressources naturelles et des moyens de subsistance de ces populations rurales. Cette initiative de l'Organisation des États d’Afrique, des Caraïbes et du Pacifique (OEACP) est financée par l’Union européenne et cofinancée par le Fonds français pour l’environnement mondial. Le SWM Programme est mis en oeuvre par un consortium dynamique de quatre partenaires d’expérience dans les domaines de la conservation de la faune et de la sécurité alimentaire, soit l'Organisation des Nations Unies pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture (FAO), le Centre de coopération internationale en recherche agronomique pour le développement (CIRAD), le Centre de recherche forestière internationale (CIFOR) et a Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS). Le projet SWM à Madagascar est coordonné par WCS.
