Convention of Democratic Forces

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Convention of Democratic Forces (French: Convention des Forces Démocratiques, CFD) is a political alliance in Burkina Faso (former Upper Volta. It was founded in April 2005 by the Coalition of Democratic Forces and is composed of the following parties:

• Convention for Democracy and Federation (CDF)
• Rally for the Development of Burkina (RDB)
• The Greens of Burkina

The Rally for the Development of Burkina may have left the coalition, since it has separate election results listed. At the 2007 parliamentary elections, the Convention of Democratic Forces won 3 of the 111 seats, and the RDB 2.
