Le Burkina Faso a été le premier pays d’intervention de HI en Afrique de l'Ouest. L’association y est enregistrée depuis 1991. Cette année-là, en partenariat avec le Ministère de la Santé, l’association œuvra pour la réhabilitation du Centre National d'Appareillage Orthopédique du Bu...rkina (CNAOB). Elle a par la suite soutenu le développement et la mise en place d'autres centres de réadaptation et d’appareillage à travers le pays. Le spectre des interventions de HI s’est ensuite diversifié au fil des années au Burkina Faso.
Aujourd'hui, HI facilite la mise en place d'un réseau régional de réadaptation fonctionnelle et l'intégration de ce réseau dans le système national de santé. HI forme des professionnels de la santé et de la réadaptation fonctionnelle. Grâce à son projet éducatif, l’association facilite l'accès et le maintien d’enfants handicapés à l’école primaire. Afin d'assurer la pérennité de ce projet, l'organisation forme et sensibilise les personnes qui travaillent dans les secteurs du handicap et de l'éducation inclusive.

Selon les estimations du recensement général de la population et de l’Habitat (RGPH, 2006), le nombre de personnes en situation de handicap au Burkina Faso en 2012 est estimé à environ 168 000, soit 1,2% de la population totale. La Fédération burkinabè des associations pour la promotion des... personnes handicapées (FEBAH) évalue à 66% le nombre de personnes en situation de handicap n’ayant aucun niveau d’instruction et seulement 16,5% ayant atteint le niveau primaire. Ces estimations contrastent avec celles de l’OMS et de la Banque mondiale (15% de la population mondiale sont en situation de handicap). Le champ de l’éducation inclusive se caractérisant au Burkina Faso par une absence de données quantitatives systématisées, de telles contradictions peuvent avoir des effets négatifs sur la planification éducative et les efforts déployés par les différents partenaires pour atteindre l’EPT.

Key Messages and Recommendations.
The Report, Todos y todas sin excepción, produced by the Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report and the Regional Bureau for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean (OREALC /UNESCO Santiago), along with the Laboratory of Education, Research and Innovation in... Latin America and the Caribbean (SUMMA) shows that, prior to the pandemic, in 21 countries, children from the richest households were five times as likely as the poorest to complete upper secondary school.
Learning outcomes were low before COVID-19. Only half of 15-year-olds achieved minimum proficiency in reading. In Guatemala and Panama, barely 10 disadvantaged 15-year-old students master basic mathematics skills for every 100 of their better-off peers. Indigenous people and Afro-descendants also have lower attainment and literacy rates.
The report includes a set of key recommendations for the next decade, which will help countries achieve the objectives of the 2030 Agenda and calls for schools to be more inclusive, which many still are not.
