“Zava-Manahiran’ny VEHIVAVY” was inspired and created by Mami Brunah Aro Sandaniaina, in remembrance of her late father Jamoka Misetra (Scout totem) Brunaud Jean de Dieu Tsiketa (birth on September 10, 1956 – death on February 18, 2020) during the celebration of the Father’s Day in June 2024.
“Zava-Manahiran’ny Tanora” was a weekly radio program that Jamoka Misetra initiated to tackle young people’s issues at the National Malagasy Radio in Mahajanga, Madagascar in 1998. He focused on the written and oral histories and facilitated discussion to find the most appropriated responses to them.
