THIS month we celebrate the 13th anniversary of the Plurinational State of Bolivia.

After more than 500 years, with Evo Morales, the first indigenous president and symbol of our emancipation, empowered, we were able to break the chains of oppression and recover our dignity and sovereignty.

Thus, on January 22 2009, during his first period in government a new constitution was approved, refounding the country as the Plurinational State of Bolivia and for the first time in our history, 36 native nations were fully recognised.
