Bolivia
Bolivia is one of the countries with the lowest health indicators in Latin America. Despite increased investment in public health facilities in recent years, availability and quality of care remain poor.
In 2019, we opened a small sexual and reproductive health programme in El Alto, a municipality next to the capital, La Paz. The project focuses on the local indigenous population, among whom teenage pregnancies and death during pregnancy and childbirth occur most frequently.
We also opened two maternity units in the city, working in collaboration with the Ministry of Health both centres to assist births.
