Savoirs locaux de prévision climatiques et dynamique spatio-temporelle des pratiques agricoles dans la commune rurale de Boussouma (Burkina Faso)
Françoise VALEA A. SAWADOGO L. OUEDRAOGO
Les populations locales, à travers leurs observations des phénomènes naturels et les
comportements du milieu, appréhendent plus ou moins la dynamique des paramètres climatiques
(pluviométrie, températures, vents) et adaptent leurs pratiques agricoles. Lorsque ces
connaissances locales corroborent avec les prédictions des modèles climatiq(...)

FOREST MANAGEMENT AND LAND USE DYNAMICS IN THE WAKOU COMMUNAL FOREST AND DIAPANGOU SYLVOPASTORAL ZONE (BURKINA FASO)
Francoise Valea
In Burkina Faso, the degradation of forest resources has led to the
implementation of strategies to preserve and restore plant formations.
To this end, the Wakou communal forest (FC) and the
Diapangousylvopastoral zone (ZSP), in the east of the country, have
benefited from forest management. This study analyzes the impact of
these ma(...)

Global existence of a weak solution for a reaction–diffusion system in a porous medium with membrane conditions and mass control
Safimba Soma , Siaka Kambele and Aboudramane Guiro
In this paper, we prove the global exstence of weak solutions for a porous medium
dynamics of m species moving between two domains separated by a zero-thickness membrane.
On this membrane, Kedem–Katchalsky conditions are considered, and the study is characterized
by natural structural conditions applied to the nonlinear reactive terms. The(...)

ChatGPT Does Not Understand Moore: On the Challenges of Integrating African Languages in Large Language Models
Aminata Sabané, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé
The advent of Large Language Models (LLMs) likely constitutes a turning point in the history of mankind. LLMs have the potential to revolutionize the way we interact with computers and each other. While current state of the art LLMs mostly support western languages, such as English, it is paramount that we consider the opportunity of integrati(...)

Les femmes politiques burkinabè à l’épreuve de l’entre soi masculin et des contraintes de la vie de famille
Yonli Taladi Narcisse et Ouattara Issa
La caractéristique majeure de la plupart des sociétés au Burkina Faso est le patriarcat. Dans ce système social, la prépondérance de l’homme s’exprime sur la femme. Les systèmes de croyance et de représentations sociales y ont pendant longtemps véhiculé une image de femme assignée exclusivement au foyer. Suivant ces mêmes considérations, le ch(...)

Malaria remains a major public health threat in Burkina Faso, as in most sub-Saharan Africa countries. Malaria control relies mainly on long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying. In Burkina Faso, an escalating of insecticide resistance has been observed over the last decades. This study aimed to investigate ins(...)

REMOVABLE SETS FOR THE WAVE EQUATIONS IN TERMS OF HAUSDORFF MEASURE
I.LY, M. OUEDRAOGO, B. BELLA and T.OUEDRAOGO
We prove a Radó theorem for the wave equations. Namely, we
consider u to be a locally Lipschitz continuous function on an
open set X of R^{n+1} and weakly solution to the wave equations ∂ttu -div(∇u)=0
away from the zero set away from the zero set u^{-1}(0) in X. We prove
that u is a weak solution to these wave equations in(...)
