Background
NRC is currently working in Burkina Faso, with staff dedicated to assisting people affected by conflict. Its humanitarian interventions are based on its programming expertise in the Core Competencies of Shelter, Site Management, Education, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WaSH), Livelihoods and Food Security, Protection from Violence, along with Information Counselling and Legal Assistance (ICLA) to vulnerable displaced people.
According to the 2024 Humanitarian Response Plan, Burkina Faso continues to face an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. Despite substantial response efforts by the Government and partners, the humanitarian situation has not improved enough to enable the reduction of vulnerability and needs of affected populations. In 2023, new displacements were reported throughout the year, and the number of civilians affected by security incidents increased. Urgent support is needed to address needs in food security, nutrition, health, and other sectors, as well as to protect civilians. At the same time, more efforts are needed to promote solutions to help people emerge from crisis altogether and avoid aid dependence.
The 2024 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) aims to meet these objectives and was developed in consultation with the Government, targeting 3.8 million people from an estimated 6.3 million in need of humanitarian assistance. Roughly two million people (10% of the population) remain internally displaced as of 31 March 2023 (of which 53% are women and 52% are boys and girls under 18). The scale and severity of humanitarian needs have increased during 2023: according to the Government’s national humanitarian response plan 2023, all 13 regions in Burkina Faso host Internally Displaced People (IDPs), with a high concentration in the Sahel (25.7%), Centre-North (25.1%), North (13%), East (10.8%) and Boucle du Mouhoun (6.5%) regions. In addition, 39 localities are under blockade by non-state armed actors, making it difficult to deliver humanitarian assistance to affected populations. Humanitarian space to deliver assistance has drastically reduced in the past two years.
In 2025 NRC expects further deterioration of the humanitarian space, an increase in bureaucratic and administrative impediments and a growing need for humanitarian and access advocacy, both public and private.
