Wildlife Recovery: The Bronx Zoo says 14 trafficked keel-billed toucans have fully recovered after U.S. authorities seized them at the U.S.-Mexico border last summer, following months of rehab; the birds were found hidden in a vehicle dashboard and arrived stressed and malnourished. Regional Politics: Madagascar’s transitional President Michael Randrianirina backed a push to process minerals locally before export, warning contracts and mining law may be revised if companies won’t add value at home. Summit Momentum: At the Africa Forward Summit in Nairobi, leaders adopted the Nairobi Declaration and kept pressing for affordable credit, industrialisation, and “blue economy” investment—while Nigeria’s Tinubu argued the global financial system blocks Africa’s growth. SADC Women’s Leadership: Senator Dr Linda Nxumalo was elected Chairperson of the SADC Parliamentary Forum’s Regional Women’s Parliamentary Caucus for the next three years, with Madagascar among the eligible states. Madagascar Angle: The week also highlighted Madagascar’s role in regional initiatives—from minerals policy to youth-led political demands for elections.
