Created in 2008 and officially recognized in 2015, these protected areas, managed by the local associations VOI Fanasina Analalava and VOI Maintso Vonona, embody a model of participatory conservation, closely involving local communities in the preservation of these natural treasures.

Classified as category VI in the system of protected areas in Madagascar, Analalava and Analabe-Betanatanana allow for the sustainable use of natural resources for the benefit of local communities. This inclusive approach aims to reconcile biodiversity conservation with the well-being of local communities, promoting sustainable and harmonious development.

The Protected Areas of Analalava and Analabe-Betanatanana face multiple challenges, such as illegal deforestation, poaching, and unsustainable logging. In collaboration with local communities, Madagasikara Voakajy implements effective conservation programs, including regular patrols, awareness campaigns, and sustainable development initiatives.

The types of monitoring conducted in both protected areas include periodic patrols, mixed patrols, and ecological monitoring of the two target conservation species, which include animal and plant species.

Since 2021, the Fitantanana Maharitra Lovain-jafy (FMH) project, funded by the British government through the Biodiverse Landscapes Fund, has been implemented in these two protected areas.
