SNV Burkina Faso 

SNV is a Netherlands Development Organisation that has been active in Burkina Faso since 1970. The complexity of development issues and the need for local expertise at that time made our activities, on a local and international level, progress rapidly. Ever since, SNV Burkina has been supporting local actors in finding adequate, innovative and sustainable answers to poverty alleviation, while promoting good governance. Our advisers intervene in:

  • Health
  • Education
  • Biogas
  • Cotton
  • Agriculture - Oilseeds
  • Livestock and Pastoralism
