Introduction People History Culture ...

The name of the country was changed to Burkina Faso in 1984. The area of Burkina Faso is 274,200 sq km (105,900 sq mi), and the capital is Ouagadougou.

myTitle = "ssatitle" Brief history of IPGRI in sub-Saharan Africa The first IPGRI (then IBPGR-International Board for Plant Genetic Resources) office was established in West Africa in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso in 1981. It was later moved to Niamey, Niger in l987 and given responsibility for West and Central Africa, with a single scientist. The Nairobi office was established in 1982 with, at that time, responsibility for Eastern and Southern Africa. One scientist also originally ran it. At this time IPGRI (IBPGR) was a field programme of the FAO and the initial emphasis of the work in sub-Saharan Africa was assistance to national programme in procurement and development of conservation facilities; collection of germplasm through both local and international missions and training of national programme staff in plant genetic resources conservation and use mainly at the University of Birmingham through fellowships provided by UNEP and FAO . Because of the urgent need to rescue germplasm from a multiplicity of threats IBPGR (IPGRI) located one collector in the LAC region and was based at IRAZ in Burundi while another collector was based in Harare Zimbabwe to facilitate germplasm collection in the Southern Africa region. After an internal re-organisation and the establishment of IPGRI as an independent CGIAR institute, the sub-Saharan Africa Group was established, with a main office in Nairobi. The office had four staff members (2 IRS and 2 LRS) and a sub-office for West and Central Africa in Niamey with two staff members (1 IRS and 1 LRS, the latter on a special project). This latter office was relocated to Cotonou, Benin in June 1996.

AudioVideo Friday, 19 May, 2000, 18:07 GMT 19:07 UK Burkina Faso denies arming rebels President Compaore denies arming the RUF rebles The government of Burkina Faso has denied that it is stoking up the conflict in Sierra Leone by supplying arms to the rebel forces of the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) of Foday Sankoh. A statement issued in Ouagadougou said Burkina Faso was astonished to find itself accused of arming one part of Sierra Leonean society against another. "Burkina Faso, which has always persevered against every adversity, categorically denies the gross slur that it supplies arms to rebel movements," the statement said. The RUF leader Foday Sankoh is being kept in protective custody Official sources in Ouagadougou say the denial was prompted by renewed accusations against Burkina Faso in the European Parliament. The Sierra Leonean Government as well international campaigners say that the two countries have been used by the RUF as transit points for their diamond exports. It is also widely believed that the RUF gets most of its arms and other supplies through Liberia in exchange for illegally mined diamonds.

About the ICRC ICRC activities The ICRC worldwide Focus ... Annual Report Annual Report Abijan, regional delegation (Burkina Faso, C´te d'Ivoire, Guinea, Niger, Sierra Leone) IN 1994 THE ICRC: - provided 120,000 people affected by the conflict with around 7,500 tonnes of food; - provided logistic support for the Liberia relief operation, forwarding over 7,000 tonnes of food. Introduction The devastating armed conflict in Liberia had a strong influence on the surrounding region in 1994 and remained inextricably linked to the generalized violence and insecurity that prevailed in neighbouring Sierra Leone. The tribal make-up of the region, the shared supply routes through dense rain forests, a multitude of shifting political allegiances, a common economy based on precious stones and minerals, and an intricate mafia-style web of cross-border trade were the principal factors linking the whole region, especially the area from eastern Sierra Leone through the forest region of Guinea and into Liberia. The tragic result of this volatile situation was that the entire region was submerged in an atmosphere of extreme violence and terror. In the Sierra Leone/Guinea/Liberia triangle the civilian population lived in a permanent state of fear, the authorities held no sway whatsoever and international humanitarian organizations were unable to work. In August 1993 two ICRC nurses were brutally executed in south-eastern Sierra Leone. From that point on, and through the whole of 1994, relief activities remained suspended, as the danger of entering territory where no authority was apparently in control and where foreigners were seen as a threat was too great. This situation placed the ICRC in a dilemma, as there were hundreds of thousands of civilians in the area in dire need of protection and assistance.
