West African national development initiatives
Overview
West African nations are implementing various national development, infrastructure, and social empowerment initiatives.
In Burkina Faso, recent efforts include the inauguration of the Faso-Kéoogo school complex in Ouagadougou to support over 1,400 students. Additionally, the ‘Pagb Yidgr-Sooré’ communication campaign has expanded to Ouahigouya, focusing on female entrepreneurship, reproductive health, and awareness regarding gender-based violence and child marriage, despite regional security challenges.
In Côte d’Ivoire, the government has launched a project in Yamoussoukro to construct 420 social and economic housing units through a partnership with the West African Development Bank. This is part of a broader 145 billion CFA franc agreement to build 4,300 homes across several cities.
In Burundi, a specialized training program for journalists has been introduced in Gitega to facilitate communication regarding the ‘Burundi Vision 2040-2060’ national development plan.
