Bolivia

Swisscontact started working in Bolivia in 1988. Since then, it has implemented various programs and projects that promote inclusive development – economic, social and environmental – offering economically and socially disadvantaged people the opportunity to improve their lives using their own initiative. 

Our work focuses on rural development projects, professional technical training, environment and climate change mitigation, which are concentrated in four main areas: Vocational Education and Skills Development, Insertion in the Labour Market, Sustainable Agriculture, Commerce and Green Cities. 

Through our systemic approach and our role as facilitators, we work with a wide network of local stakeholders both in the public and private sector as well as with the academic sector.
