Cette mission menée conjointement par la représentante du Ministère de la Santé en charge du projet, la
responsable EVIPNet de l’OMS à Genève et le directeur de la fondation Winds of Hope visait à établir le lien entre
le Ministère de la Santé et les différentes parties prenantes du B...urkina Faso en charge de la prévention et de
prise en charge du noma, notamment les ONG : Sentinelles, Persis et Hymne aux Enfants. En effet, le Ministère
de la Santé du Burkina Faso a décidé d’écrire une note de politique (policy brief) sur cette maladie négligée non
transmissible qu’est le noma pour provoquer un dialogue politique (forum délibératif) devant déboucher sur des
actions politiques concrètes. Cette maladie, symbole des ravages de l’extrême pauvreté, affecte les zones les
plus isolées et pauvres du Burkina Faso. Cette initiative du Ministère de la Santé du Burkina Faso qui a acquis
maintenant une grande expérience dans l’écriture de notes de politique et dans l’organisation de dialogues
politiques est une démarche concrète et significative pour adresser les inégalités sociales et l’extrême pauvreté.

Lack of satisfactory progress in mainstreaming disaster risk reduction within development is attributed to various factors. One of the important factor that is often not much appreciated is the inadequate comprehension of mainstreaming and the absence of clear, cogent and practical guidelines, tools... and techniques for mainstreaming DRR within development. This Guidebook helps to tackle this challenge by providing strategic and practical guidelines on how to mainstream disaster risk reduction into their policies plans and programmes across key sectors.
