Overview 2011

ADES continues to grow and opens a fifth ADES centre: "While our activities were previously limited to the south and southwest of the island, we are now expanding them to the northwest with the addition of Mahajanga, the third-largest city in the country," the annual report states. At the end of the year, ADES had a total of 19 additional employees on its payroll. ADES is also creating jobs indirectly. BERMA is opening a production facility in Fianarantsoa, where clay bricks for the energy-saving cookers will be fired from now on. ADES thus enters into a long-term partnership with BERMA that continues to this day.

"We have probably never carried out as many activities in Switzerland as we did in 2011," the annual report reads. Among other things, the city of Zurich invites ADES to the Environment Days, many stand actions are on the programme as well as participation in the Climate Forum in Thun and the Lifefair trade fair in Zurich. The Bulletin is also published for the first time.

Highlights in both countries are also likely to be the 10-year anniversary celebrations, each of which is captured in a picture sheet, among other things.
