Bolivia Digna is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) based in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Its objective is to promote and defend the rights of children, adolescents and other vulnerable social groups living in exclusion of the society.
Since 2006, we have been developing programs aimed at social development in the heart of these impoverished neighbourhoods, in order to protect and defend the children coming from these communities, who are often victims of violence of any kind. Through our actions, we promote human rights education, responsible leadership and Christian values.
Over time, we have implemented several projects that focus on the culture of voluntarism. To this end, more than 250 Bolivians and close to 240 international volunteers have been part of our program for periods of between one month and over a year. Since the beginning of 2017, Bolivia Digna has been supporting the projects of its partner the “La Salle” school in several cities in Bolivia.
Our team
We are a very lean organization with a core team of professional educators augmented by a larger team of local and international volunteers. However, in order to run the projects and extend our action, we always need financial support, in addition to the volunteers. We are also always looking for partners who can help us financially, give us materials or set up a specific project with the children in our communities.
Thanks to the generous contributions of our donors and partners and especially to the passionate and motivated volunteers, we can ensure the happiness and well-being of the children in our projects.
This core team is augmented by local volunteers from our partner organizations and by international volunteers from various countries. We have so far benefited from volunteers coming from Italy, Ireland, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, the UK, the USA, Lithuania, Mexico, Sweden, Canada, Venezuela, Taiwan, Brazil, Belgium, New Zealand and Australia.
