Since early 2019, Burkina Faso has been facing a rapidly developing humanitarian crisis, with over a million people displaced internally as of the end of 2020. The crisis is caused by increased activity of armed actors in the ‘Three Border’ area between Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger.
IMPACT Initiatives has been operating in Burkina Faso since 2019, largely through its ‘REACH’ Initiative. REACH’s work in Burkina Faso is mostly focused on humanitarian situation monitoring in the accessible and hard to reach areas of the tri-border region between Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, as well as the implementation of a countrywide multi sector needs assessments in 2020. These activities aim to inform crisis-wide humanitarian planning, coordination and prioritization. As of 2020, REACH is developing a new stream of work through ‘Area-based assessments’ and IDP site profiling activities, which aim to inform local level coordination. REACH is also in the process of developing sectoral research cycles in support of Food Security & Livelihoods (FSL) actors as well as the Logistics Cluster.

To identify evidence-based solutions that can be applied in fragile contexts to strengthen the resilience of communities. How? By conducting scientifically robust risk assessments, working with local actors to develop a better understanding of risk, and building local analytical and communication capacities.

Described as a Ground Zero for climate change by the United Nations, the Sahel region hosts some of the most vulnerable populations in the world. Yet climate change is just one of the many challenges Sahelians’ are forced to contend with. The combination of climate change further compounded by the spread of COVID-19 and the measures taken to fight it, act as threat multipliers in some of the most crisis-affected communities globally.
The WASH Severity Classification is a set of tools and protocols designed to enable analysts from humanitarian and development organizations to measure the severity of WASH conditions across various crises and time- through an evidence-based approach that uses recognized standards.
