African public administration and administrative writing

COMMUNICATION is designed to promote exchanges between individuals. Language has a dual function: to communicate between people and to symbolize an idea by means of a sign. In fact communication is defined as a process that enables information or a message to be transmitted using a code issued at source by a receiver or sender.The message in turn is aimed at a target: the addressee or receiver via a channel or path. And French-speaking African public administrations seem to be ill with administrative drafting. Sick in the sense that administrative writing is by no means familiar popular standard or personally sought-after. Clearly administrative writing has its own rules and standards that need to be understood and mastered. As the heart of the State administrative writing is a way of measuring the functional health of the administration from an editorial point of view. This leaflet is designed to help you master the professional writing that forms the backbone of public administration in Burkina Faso and the French-speaking world.
