Climate change affects the sustainable development of all countries and threatens the very survival of the human species. It is among the most difficult environmental issues of the 21st century and an urgent challenge for the international community. Articles 4 and 12 of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) invite Parties to periodically review the measures they have taken or plan to take to implement the Convention. This general description of the measures constitutes the national communication of the Partic to be submitted to the UNFCCC Secretariat. The national communication must include the inventory of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and reductions, the measures taken to implement the Convention and any information that helps fulfill the obligations of each Party under the Convention. Although Burkina Faso is not a major greenhouse gas emitter, it is actively taking mitigation and adaptation measures to address global environmental issues. After having submitted its first National Communication in 2002, the Second in 2014, Burkina Faso presents in this year 2022 its Third National Communication (TCN). This Third National Communication, prepared following the guidelines of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Convention Secretariat, aims to present the country&#39;s contributions and efforts to deal with climate change.. It reflects Burkina Faso&#39;s commitment to actively participate in achieving the objective of the convention, to promote sustainable development and to improve the country&#39;s capacity to deal with climate change. This commitment materializes through the promotion of energy savings, sustainable land management, smart farming practices and actions that contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions. This is why Burkina Faso, a Sahelian country with a strongly rural economy and particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of climate change, is taking the path of low-carbon and resilient development. The process of drafting this third communication was inclusive and participatory. Several national and international actors have been mobilized for this purpose. Allow me, on behalf of the Government of Burkina Faso, to say thank you to them. I address particular thanks to the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) for their financial and technical contribution. To all the experts and all the people who carried out the sectoral studies and/or participated in the elaboration of the final document of the TCN, I express the recognition and sincere gratitude of
