YAS Madagascar has extended its Inclusive Leadership Camp programme to regional areas, reinforcing its commitment to promoting equity and accessibility in the workplace.

Following the programme’s initial launch in Antananarivo last year, the company has begun rolling out inclusion-focused activities beyond the capital. The first regional mission was held in Diégo, marking the start of a broader effort to engage employees and management in adopting more inclusive practices in their daily operations.

The initiative is being implemented in collaboration with local partners focused on inclusion and diversity. These partnerships are expected to enhance the effectiveness of the programme through local expertise and community engagement.

The Diégo session featured demonstrations and practical workshops led by persons with disabilities, providing participants with firsthand insights into their capabilities, creativity, and the opportunities for fostering inclusive environments within organizations.

As part of efforts to sustain the programme, YAS Madagascar has also signed a partnership agreement with Réseau ZARA. The network will support ongoing awareness campaigns and assist in initiatives aimed at improving the recruitment and integration of persons with disabilities into the workforce.

The expansion of the Inclusive Leadership Camp underscores the company’s broader strategy to embed diversity and inclusion into its operations across Madagascar.
