Abstract
Beyond the benefits for the body and as a
game, physical activity and more particularly sport in its various disciplines
appears nowadays as a powerful means of social and economic development. Thus,
the sports industry creates jobs, generates money and positions people,
associations, communities and States on the international scene. Convinced of
its multifaceted challenges, the Burkinabè sports federations have invited
themselves into the logic of innovation with a view to promoting many sports
disciplines and energizing sports structures in order to get in tune on the
international scene. This research aims to analyze the innovations undertaken
by sports federations in Burkina Faso so as not to be left behind. To achieve
its objectives, the study proceeded through interviews to reach 34 subjects
composed of federal members and members of the National Olympic Committee and
Burkinabè Sports. The results we have achieved reveal the existence of
innovations implemented within sports federations on the organizational,
regulatory, managerial and competition levels. Also, the low level of education
of certain actors, the lack of financial and material means and finally, the
phenomenon of insecurity which has plagued the country in recent years
constitute difficulties which undermine the various actions envisaged within
the framework of the innovations undertaken by the federations we studied.
