Burkina Faso Emergency

Burkina Faso’s Logistics Cluster is addressing one of the world’s most severe humanitarian crises, with widespread food insecurity and malnutrition. Insecurity and poor infrastructure limit access to affected populations, making air transport essential. The Logistics Cluster is based in Ouagadougou and coordinates with regional hubs in Dori, Kaya, Fada N'Gourma, and Ouahigouya. Activities include coordination meetings, air cargo consolidation, and capacity building for local actors. Common services include helicopter transport and prepositioning of supplies. Information management involves mapping access constraints and sharing operational updates. Advocacy is focused on securing funding to support national NGOs and maintain logistics operations in hard-to-reach areas.
