Each book in Oxfam's "Country Profiles" series describes the social, political, historical, environmental and economic context of Oxfam's work in one particular country. The books focus on the real lives of ordinary people and the major development issues that face them, and are illustrated with photographs, maps and diagrams. Burkina Faso is one of the poorest nations in the world. It faces serious environmental problems, a history of colonial exploitation and few natural resources. Its riches lie in the resilience and hard work of its people, fighting, with the support of agencies like Oxfam, the desertification of their land and to develop a sustainable and self-sufficient economy.
