Burkina Faso NCDI Poverty Commission

Members of the Burkina Faso NCDI Poverty Commission met in May 2023 to review national noncommunicable diseases and injuries data as part of their initial situation analysis. Centre de Recherche en Santé de Nouna, the research organization that hosts the Commission, provided primary data, which indicated that the NCD burden in the country is increasing. Meeting participants reviewed the draft situation analysis based on the data and discussed the need to expand the national NCD agenda. They also noted their commitment to prioritizing more severe conditions affecting Burkinabés, including sickle cell disease, hemophilia, kidney diseases, and trauma. In September 2024, the Commission published its Situational Analysis Report, its NCD Priority Setting Report, and its NCD Strategic Plan (2024–2028).
