Elvino is one of our rockstar team members. He's been quietly transforming how we work — building innovative tech systems that help us collect better data, work smarter, and ultimately reach more youth across Madagascar.

Meet the 50 research assistants whose technical expertise, fieldwork resilience, and trauma-informed approach made it possible to collect quality data from over 5,000 adolescents across Madagascar's most remote schools.
