Bolivia | WFP | United Nations World Food Programme - Fighting Hunger Worldwide
The link will take you to the World Food Programme (FAO) page for Bolivia. Read it and weep. The article is short and indicates exactly what we have seen for years: the most rural parts of the country are where there is more severe hunger.
Also note that among the four "Threats to Food Security" is "Low education levels" Our tiny non-profit is aimed at simply getting texts into the hands of students in very rural northern Potosà Department. Books don't feed anyone, but a gradual increase in educational levels is one component of the solution.
