AUXFIN's Holistic Approach to Community Activation - Burkina Faso

About this project

The goal of the project is to realize cohesive communities in the rural areas of Burkina Faso, including vulnerable people (the young, female, internally displaced), who are actively planning their self-development based on knowledge, available in- and output market opportunities and investing their money to actively improve their livelihoods and livelihood resilience.This will be realized by:Localizing and deploying a digital platform providing knowledge and services from local businesses and markets to the farmers and building a network of groups with tablets and supported by activators to stimulate these groups to actively use the platform.Activated groups in rural areas of Burkina Faso, doing their weekly meetings, will acquire new knowledge on finance, agriculture and health while having access to financial and other services, enabling them to do targeted investments to improve their livelihoods. Working as a group together towards common goals will increase the social cohesion of the groups, while improving their financial situations, their resilience and their well-being in general.
