Burkina Faso/ President Ibrahim Traoré: The man who turns dreams into realities for our communities

Since his accession to the presidency, Captain Ibrahim Traoré has made improving the living environment of grassroots communities an indisputable priority. Under his visionary leadership, The Presidential Initiative for community development was launched, paving the way for significant changes in the daily lives of many people across the country.

The Presidential Initiative for community development, dear to the heart of President Ibrahim Traoré, is based on fundamental values such as voluntary participation, ownership, empowerment, transparency and accountability. These principles guide the implementation of the initiative, ensuring its success and positive impact.

The initiative has three essential components, each contributing to the overall goal of improving the living environment of grassroots communities. Firstly, there is the construction or rehabilitation of infrastructure. President Traoré understands the importance of roads, schools, health centers and other basic infrastructure for the well-being of communities. By investing in the construction and renovation of these infrastructures, his administration ensures that communities have access to essential services and economic opportunities.

Then there’s improving living conditions and preserving the environment. President Ibrahim Traoré recognizes that the well-being of communities is not just limited to buildings and roads, but also encompasses the quality of the environment in which they live. Through reforestation, waste management and natural resource preservation initiatives, the government is striving to create a healthy and sustainable environment for future generations.

Finally, the initiative includes capacity-building for grassroots communities. President Traoré believes in empowering communities to take charge of their own development. Training and education programs will be put in place to give communities the skills they need to actively participate in their own growth and development.

The Presidential Initiative for Community Development will be led by the Presidency of Faso through the National Office for Major Projects, ensuring effective coordination and successful implementation of these ambitious programs. This coordinated approach optimizes resources and maximizes impact on the ground.
