13. BURUNDI AND THE PROBLEMS TO SOLVE
If the the current socio-political climate lingers in Burundi, then the future of development in Burundi can be expected to be modest (African Economic Outlook, 2016).
Population growth explains why the GDP per capita has not increased in Burundi even though GDP has.
only 5 % of households have an access to electricity and there can be only a little development on private sector due the lack of electricity (EEAS, 2017).
Manufacturing sector is highly underdeveloped (Eggers, 2006: 35–36).
agricultural production is inefficient (EEAS, 2017).
corruption is on a high level (EEAS, 2017).
