Gaoua:The governor of the Djôrô region, Siaka Barro, led a regional conference on Monday, November 9, 2026, where the 2026-2030 Recovery Plan was presented to key stakeholders in the region. This event aimed to outline the main objectives of the Recovery Plan and encourage its adoption and implementation by local stakeholders.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the Recovery Plan is built on four primary pillars defense and security, state reform and improved governance, human capital development, and infrastructure development and sustainable economic transformation. Idrissa Sidibé, head of the statistics, evaluation, and capitalization department at the National Executive Secretariat for the National Development Policy, highlighted that these strategic axes cover vital areas such as security, governance, education, health, training, and infrastructure.

Governor Siaka Barro emphasized the plan's focus on several significant investments in the Djôrô region. These include the construction of roads, the development of the Bielméra industrial mine, and enhancements to health infrastructure through the Presidential Initiative for Health. Additionally, the plan involves building health centers in various municipalities and completing the Gaoua Regional University Hospital Center (CHRU).

Barro called upon public administrations, the private sector, civil society, youth, and women to actively participate in supporting the implementation of the framework to ensure the sustainable development of the region. Participants of the conference were encouraged to propose recommendations to aid in the effective execution of the Recovery Plan in the Djôrô region.

The Recovery Plan, adopted by the Burkinabe government in January 2026, serves as a guideline for public action over the next five years.
