Many people believe it is their right to have access to clean and safe water. Governments have often reinforced this notion by subsidizing services, leading citizens to expect water supplied free-of-charge or at very little cost. But water is not free. It is a scarce and precious resource. The UNDP-World Bank Water and Sanitation Programme and Bolivia's government worked together with the people of Yacupaj to find an effective way of providing water to the remote rural area. Villagers considered their circumstances as a community, and how a proposed water system could best meet their needs. They prioritized their water requirements, recognizing that only so much water could be supplied to the area. The villagers also determined which water system would be most appropriate for their needs. The community agreed to help pay to build the system, thereby inheriting ownership of the project, and gaining more control of their future.

International Fact Sheets Bolivia Mexico Peru Synthetic Drugs Interdiction ... Resources ONDCP FACT SHEET Bilateral Cooperation with Bolivia Overview: Bolivia has achieved remarkable counternarcotics successes over the past half decade, including a 70 percent reduction in coca cultivation between 1995 and 2001. This achievement, which is the result of sustained eradication and law-enforcement efforts, reduced potential cocaine production in Bolivia from 240 metric tons in 1995 to 60 metric tons in 2001, a reduction of 75 percent. As of the end of 2001, only 4,000 hectares of coca cultivation were identified in the Chapare region - once one of the world's major suppliers of this illegal drug. The successful interdiction of many essential chemicals have raised the prices of these substances and forced Bolivian lab operators to use inferior substitutes and recycled solvents. The result has been radically diminished cocaine purity: a record low of 47 percent. This has all been achieved in spite of protests organized by radical groups opposing coca eradication. Bolivia, even considering some of its remaining challenges, has provided a model for successful supply reduction efforts in South America. The Importance of Maintaining Momentum: Although the progress made in the past 5 years in Bolivia has been dramatic, it is important that the Bolivian government remains focused on finishing the job. A limiting factor in Bolivia's continued success against illegal coca cultivation will be the government's ability to work with the coca producers in the Yungas region.

This will be supported by the implementation of the Integrated Financial Management Systems that will integrate the national budget, incorporating 90 percent of total public funds administered in the country's non-financial sector, including the newly decentralized government entities. b) Building up a public auditing function in collaboration with private sector auditing firms, to evaluate financial performance conducted by public sector entities, including operations of the recently decentralized regional governments and municipalities.

Bolivia: the government legalises what is illegal Bolivian social organizations, trade unions, IPOs and environmental NGOs have strongly condemned and taken actions to face a recent governmental decree, which in fact guarantees the activities of illegal logging performed by depredatory companies to the detriment of the country's forests and their people. Decree 25561 issued on October 27 th legalises the wood illegally cut in communal lands belonging to indigenous peoples and in protected areas. This step is in blatant contradiction with the Forestry Law, whose objective is to achieve sustainable use of forests, their protection and the harmonisation of social, economic and ecological interests to the benefit of the country. The Law states very clearly that the use and trade of forest resources without previous permission obtained from the authority in charge is to be considered a crime. However, the new decree authorizes the Forestry Department to tax the illegally cut wood, which thereafter becomes "legal". As a result, illegal logging will receive the same treatment as logging carried out in a legal manner, whereby the government itself can be seen as promoting illegal activities. The only logical explanation -though there may be others less so- seems to be that the government is accepting its inability to prevent illegal logging and that its only "solution" is to tax crime. If such is the case, then this is -for the forests and its people- the worse possible option.

CNN January 23, 2001 Government to declare half of Bolivia disaster area LA PAZ, Bolivia (Reuters) Bolivia's lower house passed a bill on Tuesday to declare almost half the country a natural disaster zone, a move which will free up aid and funds for some 20,000 people affected by almost a month of heavy rain. Once the government signs the bill, the departments of La Paz, Oruro, Beni and Cochabamba will be officially declared natural disaster areas and open to millions of dollars in federal relief funds. The Andean country's national weather service estimates some 6.7 gallons (25 liters) of water per 1.2 square yards (1 square meter) have rained down on average per day the past weeks in La Paz, the worst affected area, and expects the rains to continue. The first two months of the year are usually the rainy seasons in this landlocked South American country which is twice the size of France.

President Sánchez de Lozada announced he would anulate the "impuestazo", the proposed tax rise that resulted in civil war situation of today. Airplanes are flying over the town and it seems more than probable that a curfew is imposed tomorrow to prevent further protests. And this although Sánchez de Lozada announced the anulation of the "impuestazo". This law was what was needed to provoke the explosion of social discontent and protest, part of this being the strike of the police. Several sectors reclaim that the president renounce. For tomorrow there is a call for a general strike. Three days ago, when the president Sanches de Lozadas government decreted a tax rise, which means a 10% cutdown on public and private employees salaries. In the already complicated situation of stillstanding negotiations between the government and the "Estado Mayor del Pueblo" the "impuestazo" drove people from the middle class onto the streets and even provoked critique in corporate sectors. The idea had been, following the strict regulations of the IMF, to cutdown on the household deficit. The erradication of Coca, privatisation of gas, the FTAA and other US impositions, had already caused campesino roadblocks that were brutally attacked causing the death of at least 14 people.
