Bolivia


The Challenge

This past year has once again seen significant political and social unrest in Bolivia. In June 2005, former President Mesa resigned from office. Elections on December 18, 2005 brought the country a new President, Congressional representatives, and for the first time, prefects, who are similar to U.S. governors. A second election is scheduled for July 2006, in which citizens will choose representatives to a Constituent Assembly to rewrite the nation’s Constitution and vote on regional autonomy. USAID's programs focus on strengthening democratic processes, reducing poverty, expanding the licit economy and state presence in coca-growing areas, improving the health of Bolivians, and sustainably managing the country’s economically significant biodiversity. Funding assumes continued Government of Bolivia support for shared goals within the region.
