“…Ouagadougou, the capital city of Burkina Faso, had approximately 2 million inhabitants in 2010, representing about 45% of the urban population of the country (Guengant, 2011;INSD & ICF International, 2012). This mostly unplanned and uncontrolled spread of the urban population has reinforced its social and spatial segregation (Boyer, 2010).

“…With population growth, the city has experienced a rapid geographical expansion, growing in size from 14 km 2 in 1960 to 520 km 2 in 2009 (INSD, 2009). The 'unincorporated' neighbourhoods -spontaneous settlements where land has not been officially apportioned and deeded by the government -make up a third of the total area of the city, and approximately 35% of Ouagadougou's households live in those neighbourhoods (Janique, 2006;Boyer, 2010).

Using data on 825 under-5 children from the Ouagadougou Health and Demographic Surveillance System collected in 2010, this article examines the effects of aspects of the immediate environment on childhood fever. Logit regression models were estimated to assess the effects of the quality of the local environment on the probability that a child is reported to have had a fever in the two weeks preceding the survey, after controlling for various demographic and socioeconomic variables. While the estimated impact of some environmental factors persisted in the full models, the effects of variables such as access to water and type of household waste management decreased in the presence of demographic, socioeconomic and neighbourhood factors. The management of waste water was found to significantly affect the occurrence of childhood fever. Overall, the results of the study call for more efforts to promote access to tap water to households at prices that are affordable for the local population, where the threats to child health appears to be greatest.

“…Ouagadougou dépasse de loin le groupe des villes à croissance très rapide du continent africain (Dar-es-Salaam, Kampala et Niamey) (ONU-Habitat, 2010). Le maintien d'un niveau élevé de croissance urbaine distingue nettement Ouagadougou de certaines autres villes de l'Afrique de l'Ouest comme Dakar et Abidjan qui, du fait de la baisse des migrations, ont connu un rythme de croissance plus modéré (Boyer, 2010). La croissance urbaine et l'évolution de l'espace urbain de la ville ralentissent les efforts de fournir les services urbains de base (adduction d'eau et assainissement) à l'ensemble de la population (Soura, 2009;Dos Santos, 2013).…”

Rapid urbanization and its consequences in regard to access to water, sanitation, and waste management in African cities can be synonymous to health problems. Based on the data obtained from the Ouagadougou Health and Demographic Surveillance System, this paper focuses on characterizing most of those at risk of disease (fever, diarrhea, cough, infections of the skin and eyes). Spatial analysis show that populations in formal (zoned) neighbourhoods, compared to those in informal neighbourhoods, are most at risk of disease. However, in performing multiple correspondence factor analysis and classification, we found that the informal neighbourhoods are mostly at risk of disease. The formal and informal opposition is not absolute, but the differences remain strong despite the existence of atypical neighbourhoods. The contribution of the paper is to provide a new perspective for thinking in regards to the links between environment and children’s health.

“…In addition, extended family support is insufficient to compensate for the costs imposed by having larger numbers of children, because the aid received from family support networks for schooling in Ouagadougou is insufficient, and poorer households tend to be excluded from family support networks (Bougma et al 2014). Thus, the combination of poverty, increasing educational costs (Compaoré et al 2007), and difficulties accessing housing in Ouagadougou (Boyer and Delaunay 2009;Boyer 2010) may compel couples to limit their fertility so that they can better invest in their children's schooling.…”

Fertility Limitation and Child Schooling in Ouagadougou: Selective Fertility or Resource Dilution?

Using original data collected in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, this study investigates evidence for the competing theories that fertility reductions increase children's education through either the quantity-quality tradeoff (intentionally choosing smaller families to make greater investments in education and other indicators of child quality) or resource dilution (having more children reduces resources available per child, regardless of intentionality of family size). The results provide evidence for both hypotheses: children having four or fewer siblings were significantly more likely to be enrolled in school if their mothers had intentionally stopped childbearing relative to those whose mothers wanted more children but whose childbearing was limited by subfecundity. The difference between intentional and unintentional family limitation was not significant for parities greater than five. In addition, the relationship between number of siblings and their schooling is negative, regardless of the intentionality of family-size limitation, but the strength of this negative relationship is approximately twice as high among children whose mothers intentionally limited fertility (reflecting both selection and dilution effects) than among children whose mothers were subfecund (reflecting the pure dilution effect).
