The Burkinabè Communist Group (, GCB) was a communist party in Burkina Faso.

History

The GCB was formed as a splinter from the Voltaic Revolutionary Communist Party in August 1983, following the refusal of PCRV to support the revolutionary government of Thomas Sankara. The GCB was led by Jean-Marc Palm.

On 22 May 1985, the GCB, along with the Union of Burkinabé Communists, was re-invited into the Burkinabe governing coalition under the National Council for the Revolution (CNR) in order to counter the influence of Valère Somé within the faction.
