Ouagadougou: The Public-Private Partnership Commission (C-PPP) convened its first extraordinary session of the year under the leadership of Prime Minister Rimtalba Jean Emmanuel Ou©draogo. This meeting resulted in the validation of the 2025 PPP program and included recommendations to ensure its successful implementation.
According to Burkina Information Agency, the approved program features about twenty fully developed projects, with additional ones in preparation. These projects align with national priorities and address key sectors such as transport, energy, water, housing, health, and education.
To facilitate the execution of these projects, the participants advocated for the creation of PPP units within sectoral ministries, the establishment of financing mechanisms for feasibility studies, careful selection of partners, and the adoption of financing options that do not increase public debt.
Concluding the session, the Prime Minister commended the reforms led by President Captain Ibrahim Traor© to position Public-Private Partnerships as an alternative financing source for the national economy. He expressed optimism about the positive momentum and its potential to realize strategic projects for Burkina Faso's socio-economic development.
The Prime Minister urged the ministries overseeing the projects to stay committed and called on the National Office for Major Projects to remain available for the successful execution of these initiatives, benefiting the population.
