After five years of strengthening the pediatric surgical ecosystem — from infrastructure to training, from care organization to practice monitoring — the Burkinabe Ministry of Health has initiated a collaboration with our NGO to develop a national strategy for pediatric surgery development, validated during a Cabinet Meeting.

This initiative not only improves the quality of care but also supports the overall deployment and progression of the discipline for the next decade.
