- Description:
- Newsletter discussing foreign debt of Latin America reaching staggering levels, with Bolivia being no exception. The country's debt of $4 billion had a significant impact on its people, particularly the poor. Money that could be used for healthcare, education, and other social services was instead used to service the debt. This led to a decline in the quality of life for many Bolivians, especially children. New policies and approaches to the debt crisis were needed to improve the lives of people in Bolivia and other Latin American countries.
