The Barka Foundation

Clean water, women's empowerment & sustainable development for Burkina Faso, West Africa. 'Barka' is an African word of gratitude, blessing & reciprocity. BARKA empowers communities in Africa to thrive. We focus on clean water, sanitation and hygiene, gender equality, food security, US-based educational reciprocity programs, and media/cultural arts to build capacities of local populations. BARKA empowers the people of Burkina Faso to thrive. We do this by partnering with rural villages to break the poverty cycle…permanently. BARKA's work focuses on the following high-impact areas:• Water – we provide access to clean water, improved sanitation, and hygiene education for schools and communities (WASH initiatives)• Women – we empower women and girls in all our programs• Agroecology – we help local farmers combat climate change through agroecology and sustainable agricultureEmbedded in everything we do is a focus on reciprocity. BARKA serves as a bridge between individuals, schools and communities of Burkina Faso and the United States to facilitate greater understanding, cultural exchange and the co-creation of a culture of peace.
