The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA) is responsible for facilitating and coordinating U.S. Government (USG) humanitarian assistance overseas in response to all types of international disasters. The Bureau responds to an average of 82 crises in 68 countries every year. In addition to responding to disasters, BHA helps crisis‐affected communities by building on our humanitarian responses and supporting early recovery efforts that restore and protect basic systems and services. BHA is the largest provider of humanitarian assistance in the world. In FY 2022, USAID provided over $13 billion in emergency humanitarian assistance and non-emergency early recovery and resilience programming, including in Burkina Faso.
