Despite progress in the past two decades, one third of children under age 5 are malnourished – stunted, wasted or overw...eight – while two thirds are at risk of malnutrition and hidden hunger because of the poor quality of their diets.

Soutenir les activités agricoles et pastorales pendant la contre-saison,
afin d’améliorer la sécurité alimentaire des ménages touchés par l’insécurité
Depuis début 2018, le Burkina Faso est confronté à une crise humanitaire
sans précédent. La détérioration rapide de l’insé...curité et l’augmentation
soudaine des attaques armées ont engendré des déplacements
de population qui pourraient atteindre plus de 333 000 personnes
avant la fin de l’année. Les difficultés d’accès aux champs, les destructions
d’infrastructures de production, les vols et les pertes de bétail, ainsi
que l’intensification des conflits intercommunautaires, entravent le
fonctionnement des marchés et détériorent les moyens d’existence
des ménages.
Les besoins humanitaires en augmentation croissante compromettent
non seulement les gains acquis en termes de développement, mais aussi
la cohésion sociale au Burkina Faso. Les zones rurales étant les plus
touchées par la crise, la sécurité alimentaire et l’agriculture revêtent ainsi
une importance capitale pour contribuer au relèvement et à la résilience
des populations affectées ainsi qu’au maintien de la paix.
