Plan helps give teacher training to 400 girls
Since 2006, over 400 girls in Burkina Faso have been trained to teach thanks to bursaries provided by Plan.
Plan Burkina Faso
Plan has been working in Burkina Faso since 1976, helping poor children to access their rights to education, health, sanitation and protection.
Our programmes benefit 45,000 children in over 160 communities across the country.
Currently, we are focusing on developing the second phase of the BRIGHT (Burkinabe Response to Improve Girl’s chances to Succeed) project. The first phase saw the successful completion of 132 schools. The second phase of the project aims to develop 6 classroom schools in the Namentenga and Sanmatenga regions.
