MALAGASY LAW IN FRONT OF CLIMATE MIGRATION OF ANTANDROY

Public Law and Political Science

The Antandroy constitute the population group of the Androy region, which resides in the extreme south of Madagascar. Even before the colonial period, many Antandroy people leave the Androy every year to other regions, usually in the northwest, in search of a livelihood and revenue. The objective of the article is to establish a concrete evaluation of the enjoyment of fundamental rights, essentially the right to free choice of residence and the right to the environment by Antandroy migrants. For this, we used the normative legal technique which is composed by a quantitative and qualitative approach. The quantitative approach is done through a survey of 500 Antandroy migrants, and took place from April 15 to September 12, 2019. As for the qualitative approach is made using the analysis and interpretation of the actual results of the survey in relation to the legal commitment of the public power to ensure the protection of fundamental rights. The result is that the frequent and alarming migration of the Antandroy people is caused by a violation of the fundamental rights and freedoms of the individual, precisely the right to free choice of residence and the right to the environment.
