Resumen
Descripción
While Burkina Faso is a transit country of migratory movements northwards, with mixed flows of economic migrants and refugees, it is also now facing internal displacement. This is due to a deterioration in the security situation in late 2018/early 2019 following an upsurge in violence by non‑identified armed groups and increased inter-communal conflict, particularly in the Sahel, Centre-North, North and East regions, causing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. In a context where needs are chronically high, the situation is compounded by high levels of food insecurity and malnutrition. As about 80 percent of the country’s population relies on crop and livestock production for their livelihoods, it is critical to ensure agricultural support to help vulnerable families produce their own food and generate income.
