Collectif contre l’impunité et la stigmatisation des communautés au Burkina Faso (CISC)

Areas of Work

The Collective Against Impunity and Stigmatization of Communities (CISC) is a Burkinabe organization founded in 2019 by a coalition of civil society organizations and individuals committed to peace and social justice. The Collective was established in response to the escalating security crisis in Burkina Faso, which led to ethnic stigmatization and communal massacres, severely impacting social cohesion and stability.

Its mission is to combat injustice in all its forms and to promote, protect, and defend the rights of all Burkinabe citizens without distinction. CISC is represented across all regions of Burkina Faso through regional coordination and trained monitors for data collection. It has since its foundation inter employed various means of action such as denouncing human rights violations, assisting victims and documenting cases of injustice, advocacy and awareness-raising.
