Local dairy industry in Burkina Faso

This ongoing documentary project explores the local dairy industry in Burkina Faso, aiming to support sustainable, homegrown milk production. It traces the journey of milk — from local farmers, through dairies, to the final consumer. In a country where high temperatures make fresh milk consumption challenging, powdered milk remains the most accessible option, especially in urban areas, due to its low cost and long shelf life. However, these imported milk powders often come with serious health risks.
