BURKINA FASO:
Although the creation of the CSD, the INCD,
the conferences on small island developing States and straddling
and highly migratory fish stocks are a start, these actions do not
address all concerns. There is a need to adopt an action-oriented
instrument for desertification. The GEF should be one of the
funding mechanisms for the desertification Convention. In general,
although promises have been made regarding financial resources and
the transfer of technology, there has been little progress.
Hopefully, the CSD intersessional groups will make concrete
proposals on these issues.
