Diaspora : Adama Tiemtoré nommé représentant des jeunes du HCBE au Ghana

Lefaso.net (Burkina Faso) - Tue, 02/12/2025 - 14:50

Le dimanche 30 novembre 2025 marque une étape importante dans l'engagement citoyen d'Adama Tiemtoré. Il a été officiellement nommé représentant des jeunes du Haut conseil des Burkinabè de l'extérieur (HCBE) au Ghana, à l'issue d'une désignation effectuée par les missions diplomatiques du Burkina Faso dans le pays.

Cette nomination intervient sous la haute autorité du ministre des affaires étrangères, de la coopération régionale et des Burkinabè de l'extérieur, Karamoko Jean-Marie Traoré, également président du HCBE. Elle consacre la confiance placée en un jeune leader engagé au service de la diaspora burkinabè.

Au cours de la cérémonie officielle, Adama Tiemtoré a reçu l'écharpe du HCBE ainsi que le drapeau national du Burkina Faso. Ces attributs symbolisent à la fois la reconnaissance officielle de sa fonction et la responsabilité morale et patriotique qui lui incombe désormais au nom de la jeunesse burkinabè vivant au Ghana.

Dans ses nouvelles fonctions, le représentant des jeunes du HCBE entend œuvrer principalement autour de quatre axes majeurs : la mobilisation et l'encadrement de la jeunesse burkinabè au Ghana, le renforcement de l'unité et de la solidarité au sein de la diaspora, la collaboration étroite avec les autorités diplomatiques et les organisations communautaires, ainsi que la promotion de l'image et des valeurs du Burkina Faso à l'étranger.

Un engagement placé sous le signe du patriotisme

Conscient de l'importance de la mission qui lui est confiée, Adama Tiemtoré s'est engagé à représenter la jeunesse avec loyauté, à travailler avec transparence et dévouement, à défendre les intérêts de la communauté burkinabè établie au Ghana et à contribuer activement aux initiatives portées par la diplomatie burkinabè.

Plusieurs projets sont d'ores et déjà annoncés. Ils portent notamment sur l'organisation de journées de mobilisation patriotique et d'unité, des activités de sensibilisation et d'orientation à l'endroit des jeunes, la mise en place d'un cadre permanent de dialogue entre la jeunesse et la représentation diplomatique, ainsi que le renforcement des actions sociales au profit de la communauté burkinabè au Ghana.

Cette nomination constitue à la fois un honneur et un devoir envers la nation. Adama Tiemtoré a exprimé sa gratitude au ministre des affaires étrangères, aux autorités diplomatiques ainsi qu'à l'ensemble de la diaspora pour la confiance placée en sa personne. Il a assuré travailler sans relâche pour représenter dignement le Burkina Faso et servir la communauté burkinabè du Ghana avec engagement, responsabilité et patriotisme.

Connu sous le sobriquet de « le riche transitaire », Adama Tiemtoré est un jeune leader burkinabè établi au Ghana, très engagé dans la promotion de la diaspora et le développement communautaire. Professionnel du transit, du transport maritime et routier, il est le dirigeant de AT Transit International, une entreprise spécialisée dans la logistique, l'acheminement de marchandises et l'assistance aux opérateurs économiques entre le Ghana et le Burkina Faso.

Mitigating anti-microbial resistance in the environment: a One Health governance analysis in Kenya

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical threat to global health, with environmental transmission pathways – pharmaceutical waste, wastewater effluents, agricultural runoff – increasingly recognised as significant yet inadequately governed. Despite international calls for One Health approaches integrating human, animal and environmental sectors, coordination across these domains remains weak, particularly for environmental dimensions. This paper examines why environmental integration lags in Kenya’s AMR governance, despite sophisticated formal architecture that includes national and county coordination platforms (NASIC, CASICs), tech-
nical working groups and the One Health AMR Surveillance System (OHAMRS). We investigate two research questions: (i) What are the enablers and barriers to effective governance of interlinkages among human health, animal health and environmental sectors in mitigating AMR? (ii) What are the options for effectively integrating the environmental dimension into AMR governance?
Drawing on polycentric governance theory, the Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework and the concept of Networks of Adjacent Action Situations (NAAS), we analyse how authority, information and resources shape interactions among overlapping decision centres across constitutional, collective-choice and operational levels. Through 12 semi-structured interviews with government officials, fisheries officers and environmental regulators, supplemented by policy document analysis, we map six action situations spanning planning, resource allocation, surveillance, stewardship, wastewater treatment and regulation. Findings reveal that constitutional-choice rules create formal overlaps intended to foster coordination, yet systematic asymmetries in authority, information and resources perpetuate the marginalisation of environmental issues. Boundary and position rules concentrate agenda setting in health sectors; information rules exclude AMR parameters from environmental permits and inspections; payoff rules reward clinical outputs while environmental investments compete with higher priorities; and scope rules omit environmental accountability targets. These rule configurations attenuate feedback loops between environmental action situations and upstream planning, maintaining system stability but at sub-optimal performance for One Health objectives. We identify rule-focused interventions – mandating environmental representation with voting authority, embedding AMR parameters in regulatory instruments, institutionalising joint inspection protocols, ring-fencing environmental budgets, and establishing explicit environmental targets – that would realign coordination toward genuine environmental integration.
