RRI Work and Resources in Bolivia

Bolivia's 2009 constitution represents an unprecedented opportunity to advance indigenous rights to autonomous governance of natural resources. RRI works to improve natural resources legislation and to ensure its adaptation into the new constitution. Our rights-based approach is based on critical, integrated input from indigenous and campesino organizations.
