Socio-cultural Factors Affecting Traditional Knowledge and the Cultural Significance of the Aromatic and Medicinal Plant, Boswellia dalzielii Hutch., in Burkina Faso
Sabo P., Tiétiambou F.R.S., Guindé H.T., Salako K.V., Johnson S., DeCarlo A., Mensah S., Glèlè-Kakaï R., Ouédraogo A.
The medicinal plant Boswellia dalzielii is well known and widely used by local communities in West Africa. However, detailed information about this knowledge and its distribution among local people remains poorly documented. We assessed traditional knowledge (TK) regarding the use of B. dalzielii in communities in Burkina Faso. We conducted 16(...)

Moumouni Bandé, Abdoul Karim Sakira, Noé Rigobert Zangré, Hyacinthe Wendégoudi Bonkoungou, Evance Brice Zoungrana, Cédric Delporte, Pierre Van Antwerpen & Touridomon Issa Somé
Background
Snakebite envenomation constitutes a major public health challenge in Burkina Faso, particularly within rural communities. Limited access to formal healthcare services, coupled with the high cost of antivenom treatment, has led to widespread reliance on traditional health practitioners (THPs). This study was therefore undertaken to(...)

Urbanisation et transport à Koudougou (Burkina Faso)
OUEDRAOGO Rawelguy Ulysse Emmanuel
La mobilité constitue un des leviers fondamentaux dans l’aménagement et la structuration spatiale d’un territoire. Cependant, lorsque le développement du secteur du transport ne se fait pas de manière simultanée avec celui de la ville, il se pose alors des difficultés. La présente recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre de la contribution du secteur(...)

ON UNIQUENESS OF LOCAL ENTROPY SOLUTION OF A CONVECTION-DIFFUSION TYPE INTEGRO-DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION
MOHAMED BANCE and SAFIMBA SOMA
We study the uniqueness of entropy solution for a class of triply
nonlinear parabolic integro-differential equations of the form
∂t k ∗(j(v)−j(v0)) −∇· a(x, ∇ϕ(v)) + F (ϕ(v)) = f
in a bounded domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The
source term f belongs to L1 and the memory term k ∗(j(v)−j(v0)) introduces
a nonlocal depe(...)

Design and Construction of a Solar/Biomass Hybrid Cooker for Sahelian Climatic Conditions
Iliyassé Konkobo, Jacques Nébié, Lucmane Koala, Boubou Bagré, Armand Bowendkuni Korsaga, Guy Tubreoumya, Ali Diané, Tizane Daho, and Antoine Béré
Solar box cookers are eco-friendly and eliminate the need for wood, but they are not always sufficient to replace biomass stoves. Few studies have explored combining solar and biomass energy in a single system. In our study, we designed a hybrid device that integrates a box-type solar cooker with a biomass combustion chamber. This system prior(...)
