The rate of Burkina Faso’s progress
towards the eradication of extreme poverty and the reduction
of inequalities over recent years has been sub-optimal. This
Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) is an analytical report
prepared by the World Bank Group (WBG) in an attempt to
identify and analyze the factors that can help Burkina Faso
accelerate its quest towards the achievement of the twin
goals of reduced poverty and shared prosperity. The SCD
assesses Burkina Faso’s performance in order to identify the
constraints and to formulate a set of key priorities to
facilitate the achievement of these goals. By focusing on
the most significant issues affecting theachievement of
these goals, the SCD is intended to inform the formulation
of the upcoming Country Partnership Framework (CPF) and thus
to facilitate the optimization of the WBG’s assistance to
Burkina Faso. The SCD is organized in three parts. Part One
establishes a context for the analysis through an assessment
of the state of Burkina Faso’s economy and the progress it
has made towards the achievement of the twin goals of
poverty eradication and shared prosperity. Part Two presents
a unified analytical framework to identity the main
constraints on the lack of Burkina Faso’s progress towards
the achievement of these goals. This framework focuses on
two key constraints, these being the limited extent to which
productive jobs have been created and the limited degree of
access by poor households to a minimal package of services
and infrastructure. Part Three attempts to rank policy
priorities in the context of the analysis of the key
constraints, international experience, and the perceptions
of key stakeholder groups in Burkina Faso. |
