Advancing Water Access: The Mission of BARKA!

By Peace SARAMBE | Executive Director

The critical importance of water resources to life, human well-being, and sustainable development cannot be overstated. However, despite its significance, over 2.2 billion people worldwide continue to face challenges in accessing safe drinking water and adequate sanitation. Water access is a universal human right that must be safeguarded by every individual across the globe.

In Burkina Faso, where access to clean water remains elusive, the BARKA Foundation is steadfast in its belief that clean water and sanitation are vital tools in combating poverty and building a future that is equitable and environmentally sustainable. Driven by this conviction, our water program operates daily to champion this fundamental right in underserved regions by implementing impactful projects and fostering partnerships among local and international stakeholders.

Achievements in 2025

This year, the BARKA Foundation has taken significant strides toward addressing chronic water shortages in marginalized communities. Among our efforts, we successfully drilled a well to support women's gardening initiatives, which enhances food security and reduces hunger. This initiative embodies our commitment to sustainable solutions that empower communities.

In addition, the Foundation has commenced work on constructing a water tank for a high school with 2,500 students. These students face challenges in accessing drinking water due to the limitations of an existing hand-pump well. The new tank will ease this burden and improve their daily lives—a project made possible through the generous contributions of a donor, to whom we extend our heartfelt gratitude.

Vision for the Future

Looking ahead, the BARKA Foundation aims to expand the scope of its water program to impact hundreds more individuals, primarily women. We are working toward the construction of an additional well to address urgent water needs, furthering our mission of creating sustainable and lasting solutions.

Acknowledgment of Support

None of these achievements would be possible without the unwavering dedication of our partners and supporters. Your contributions are the driving force behind our mission, and for this, we express our deepest appreciation.
