Abstract

This document examines the information and communication technology sector’s performance in Burkina Faso towards better understanding of the potential and constraints of ICT usage. In spite of an improvement in teledensity, Burkina Faso remains one of the countries in the sub-region with the highest communication costs. Ancillary measures are being taken to support the telecommunications sector reforms. The paper provides background information of the telecom sector, analysis, and recommendations for regulation.
