| description |
Burkina Faso is a poor landlocked
country with a narrow natural resource base and a rapidly
expanding population of 15.8 million. This report, with the
technical support of United Nations Children's Fund
(UNICEF), provides a detailed, updated inventory of the
existing social safety net programs and suggests policy
measures that could improve their coverage, efficiency,
relevance, and financial sustainability. This report shows
that the scope and coverage of the existing social safety
net system is too limited and that most interventions are
fairly small in scale and designed as temporary programs. On
average, excluding fuel subsidies, spending on social safety
net programs was about 0.6 percent of Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) from 2005 to 2009 - from 0.3 percent in 2005 to 0.9
percent in 2009, while about 20 percent of the population is
food insecure and lives permanently in chronic poverty.
Universal fuel subsidies are very expensive (0.7 percent of
GDP in 2007) and have a very limited impact on the poorest
docile (84 percent of the benefits go to the non poor).
Among the remaining programs, food transfers are the main
form of social safety net programs in Burkina Faso,
accounting for 69 percent of total Social Safety Net (SSN)
spending and over 80 percent of all estimated SSN
beneficiaries in 2009 (excluding fuel subsidies). However,
most of the financing for social safety net programs comes
from external resources. |
