Of particular concern are the country’s agricultural capacity, and the population’s limited access to medical professionals and improved sanitation facilities. High dependence on climate-sensitive livelihoods — agriculture, pastoralism, forestry and fisheries, leave Burkina Faso vulnerable. The issues are explored in this paper, which is one in a series of country reviews prepared to provide the Collaborative Adaptation Research Initiative in Africa and Asia (CARIAA) with a snapshot of adaptation action in its countries of engagement.application/pdfenADAPTATIONBURKINA FASOWEST AFRICACLIMATE CHANGEAFRICASynthesis Report
