Madagascar–Norway relations are the bilateral and

diplomatic relations between Madagascar and Norway. Norway has an "embassy office" in Antananarivo, subordinate to the embassy in Pretoria.[1] Madagascar has an honorary consulate in Oslo.[2]

History

The relations commenced in the 1860s and centered around

Eurocentric. In the 1890s, maps were issued in Norway where the areas of Madagascar hitherto untouched by mission, were colored as pitch-black.[5] Lutheran mission shrunk after the Malagasy Lutheran Church became more self-sustained.[6]

From the 1960s, the relations shifted to

UNDP on one hand, and time-limited projects on the other, which even included the jazz festival Malajazzcar.[7] The Norwegian embassy in Antananarivo was degraded in 2010.[8]
