Burkina Faso Turns Prisons Into Farms | Baporo Detainees Boost Food Sovereignty

Brothers and sisters of Africa, welcome to Voice of Africa — the channel where Africa’s story of progress, innovation, and resilience shines brightly.

In this inspiring report, we take you inside the Baporo Agricultural Penitentiary Center in Burkina Faso, where detainees are rewriting the meaning of justice. Beyond punishment, they are cultivating food, dignity, and sovereignty. With 130 hectares already under cultivation and plans to expand to 300 hectares by 2026, this project is producing rice, maize, sorghum, soybeans, and more — directly strengthening Burkina Faso’s food security.

Join us as we explore how this initiative transforms prisons into centers of productivity, offers detainees a second chance, and contributes to Africa’s broader vision of food sovereignty. This is more than farming — it is a story of transformation, resilience, and hope.
