Like much of the Sahel Region, Burkina Faso is facing an emerging threat from at least five different terrorist organisations.
Bordering Mali, Niger and the Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso had been comparatively unaffected by explosive violence until mid-2017.
However, a series of terrorist incidents involving IEDs has proven the migration of the threat and necessitated greater security measures.
At the request of commercial clients, SafeLane Global commenced operations in 2018 to enhance the safety of operations with canine support.
The lessons learned in mobilising this project have enabled SafeLane Global to respond with all possible speed to a range of explosive threats with turnkey solutions across Burkina Faso.
