Project summary
In Burkina Faso, the "OKD axis" project (Strengthening socio-economic resilience in the Centre-North region) contributes to restoring stability along the Ouagadougou-Kaya-Dori axis.
The project is part of a broader action by the European Union which aims, through an integrated approach, to stabilize the Centre-North and Sahel regions, improve local governance and the resilience of affected populations through the revival of economic activities, particularly among the most vulnerable and destabilized populations, both hosts and displaced.
Several institutional partners are involved in the project, including the Ministry of Economy, Finance and Foresight (MINEFID); the governorate; the regional council; the Burkina Faso business center through CEFORE; the regional chambers of commerce, agriculture and trades; decentralized technical services and research and training institutes.
Among the main implementing partners, we find NGOs, local and international associations that offer value-added solutions. These partners are already involved in the themes addressed by the project: they may be public operators, civil society, etc., all of which have the potential to scale up the solutions supported by the OKD axis project; technical and professional training centers competent in the professions identified by the project. Several centers are supported by Expertise France and the project is funded by the European Union; technical structures of the State and local authorities in the intervention areas.
The beneficiaries of the project are urban and rural populations, with particular attention to women, young people under 35, internally displaced persons, households and people living in vulnerable situations. The project works to develop their resilience and economic opportunities.
