Caring for small children and the family in Burkina Faso is a challenging task. Despite the weak health infrastructure and a sense of neglect by the state, Fragile Futures reveals that the state continues to play a significant role in the lives of its citizens and their aspirations for a brighter future. Based on over two decades of research engagement with Burkina Faso, this ethnography explores how rural citizens navigate the complexities of sickness and care, striving to secure a decent future for themselves and their families.
