Burkina Faso - Watertrucking and medical activities in Sahel and Center-Nord regions

Burkina Faso is facing a humanitarian crisis due to recent conflict and insecurity, leading to a exponential increase of the number of internally displaced people from December 2018 to December 2019, going from 47,000 to more than 560,000 people spread across these regions: Sahel, Nord, Centre-Nord, Est, Boucle du Mouhoun and Centre (OCHA, dec. 2019). Sahel and Centre-Nord are the regions with the largest number of internally displaced people. Despite all the efforts of the Government and humanitarian actors since the beginning of the crisis, the populations needs remain high in almost all sectors.

With 2.2 millions of people estimated by OCHA to potentially be in need of assistance in 2020, the situation is particularly critical and access is seemingly not improving. Humanitarian stakeholders are thus particularly concerned and MSF will continue to address the needs of the most vulnerable people in such a situation in Burkina Faso and closely monitoring the situation in order to adjust its response.
