Burkina Faso has recently banned the representation of beneficiaries of humanitarian aid for promotional purposes, a decision that raises questions about the motivations of the military regime in power, which is engaged in a crackdown on civil society, while addressing the phenomenon of staging poverty, known as "poverty porn." (translated)

Le gouvernement burkinabé a interdit la pratique du « poverty porn », qui consiste à filmer la misère des personnes vulnérables pour susciter de l'émotion et des dons, à travers un décret visant à encadrer les interventions humanitaires dans le pays. #BurkinaFaso #PovertyPorn #AideHumanitaire
