dc.description	Burkina Faso is one of the priority countries of the World Bank's Disaster Risk Management (DRM) team for 2009 to 2011. this country note on Disaster Risk Management and Adaptation to Climate Change (DRM/ACC) is a baseline document for priority investments in those areas, and for the support the World Bank will provide to Burkina Faso through funds allocated under the "Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery" (GFDRR). Based on analysis of the impact of climate variability and change on various development sectors in Burkina Faso, and on national strategies and interventions formulated by Government and its partners, and taking into account the five priorities of the Hyogo Action Framework (CAH) and objectives set in Burkina Faso's National Adaptation Program of Action (NAPA), this document identifies major problems, suggests key priority actions to be undertaken in the area of DRM and addresses adverse impacts of climate change. The document provides an outline of current weather conditions in Burkina Faso, long and medium term trends and establishes linkages with major disaster risks. It analyzes the institutional framework, related policies and investments, problems, challenges, and identifies priorities, as well as recommendations for supporting GFDRR. This country document was drafted after a participatory process carried out in close consultation with the National Council for Emergency Relief and Rehabilitation (CONASUR), which is Burkina Faso's risk prevention and humanitarian action co-ordination institution. Key government and non-government stakeholders were also involved.
