To support the Government's efforts
to design effective poverty reduction strategies and
interventions, the Bank undertook this Risk and
Vulnerability Assessment. Within the framework of social
risk management, this report aims to 1) better understand
the poverty trends and implications for the poor's
vulnerability, as revealed from a quantitative analysis of
the priority surveys for 1994 and 1998; 2) supplement the
quantitative analysis of poverty and vulnerability with a
participatory pilot survey in four villages, in order to
identify the key economic and social risks and coping
strategies of the poor and vulnerable (particularly women)
at the village level, drawing on people's perception of
risks and vulnerability; 3) to the extent data permitted, to
review the present safety net programs and assess the extent
to which they are designed to address the main risks
experienced by poor people, the adequacy of such
publicly-funded response mechanisms, and identify gaps
and/or suggest improvements in the present programmatic
interventions; and 4) based on the quantitative and
qualitative work, to discuss policy perspectives bearing on
the many ways to address risk and vulnerability issues in
Burkina Faso. The report is organized as follows: After the
introduction, Chapter 2 provides a conceptual framework for
analysis of risk and vulnerability. Chapter 3 provides an
overview of the country background and the major shocks
experienced by the Burkina population in the recent period.
Chapter 4 then provides a quantitative analysis of poverty
trends and vulnerability to various risks. Chapter 5
provides a qualitative analysis of poverty and
vulnerability, based on the findings of participatory
surveys done in four villages. This is followed by an
overview of existing publicly funded safety net programs and
their interface with risks and vulnerabilities of poor
households in Chapter 6. finally, based on the quantitative
and qualitative analysis and the review of programs, the
last chapter -Chapter 7 -provides some policy perspectives
on how to improve the risk management capabilities of poor
households via appropriate public action. |
