Quaker Bolivia Link

Updated 2 December 2024

The purpose of Quaker Bolivia Link (QBL) is to fund and oversee the implementation of small community­initiated projects. These aim to improve the quality of life of impoverished indigenous people in Bolivia through community empowerment and the promotion of sustainable livelihoods. The current geographical focus is on marginalised rural Aymara communities in the Department of La Paz. Projects are related to the supply of clean water and to food security. These projects are delivered by Fundación Quaker Bolivia Link, a Bolivian charity managed by local Quakers. There is a sister fundraising charity in the United States of America. A formal cooperation agreement establishes the roles and relationship of the 3 parts of QBL.
