Plan Burkina Faso: what we do

Plan’s work in Burkina Faso covers 4 core areas, all of which are rooted in the rights of the child:

• good quality education
• maternal and child health care
• safe drinking water and sanitation
• protecting children against the effects of HIV.

This priority programme aims to improve access to quality formal and non-formal education. A great number of children have been enrolled in schools thanks to an increase in school infrastructure building projects, repairs, furnishings and supplies by Plan.
We also support the capacity building of community and institutional structures in charge of education.

Burkina Faso

Plan has been working in Burkina Faso since 1976, helping poor children to access their rights to education, health, sanitation and protection. Our programmes benefit 45,000 children in over 160 communities across the country.

Currently, we are focusing on developing the second phase of the BRIGHT (Burkinabe Response to Improve Girl’s chances to Succeed) project. The first phase saw the successful completion of 132 schools. The second phase of the project aims to develop 6 classroom schools in the Namentenga and Sanmatenga regions.
