PPCR SPCR for Bolivia PPCR/SC.9/5 October 19, 2011 Meeting of the PPCR Sub-Committee Washington, DC November 2, 2011 Agenda Item 5 STRATEGIC PROGRAM FOR CLIMATE RESILIENCE FOR BOLIVIA Proposed Decision by PPCR Sub-Committee The PPCR Sub-Committee, having reviewed the Strategic Program for Climate Resilience for Bolivia (document PPCR/SC.9/5), a) endorses the SPCR as a basis for the further development of the projects foreseen in the strategic plan and takes note of the requested funding of USD 50 million in grant funding and USD 60 million in other concessional resources. b) reconfirms its decisions on the allocation of resources, adopted at its meetings in June 2010 and 2011, that a range of funding for the country should be used as a planning tool in the further development of project and program proposals to be submitted to the PPCR Sub-Committee for approval of PPCR funding, recognizing that the minimum amount of the range is more likely and that the upper limit of the range will depend on availability of funding. The range of funding agreed for a single country pilot program is USD 40-50 million in grant resources, and USD 36 million in other concessional resources. The Sub- Committee reconfirms its call for contributors and other countries, MDBs and other development partners to seek to mobilize resources to allow for the full funding of the SPCR. c) recognizes that the quality of the project and program proposals will be a significant factor in the funding to be approved by the Sub-Committee when such proposals are submitted for approval of PPCR funding. d) approves a total of USD2.5million in PPCR funding as preparation grants for the following projects to be developed under the SPCR, i. USD 2,000,000 for the project, Multipurpose water resources project for El Alto and La Paz (IDB). ii. USD 500,000 for the project, Incorporating Climate Change Resilience in Development Processes and Strengthening the Climate Change Resilience of the Rio Grande Basin (World Bank). e) takes note of the estimated budget for project preparation and supervision services for the projects referenced above and approves a first tranche of funding for the preparation and supervision services as follows: i. USD250,000 for the project, Multipurpose water resources project for El Alto and La Paz (IDB). ii. USD475,000 for the project, Incorporating Climate Change Resilience in Development Processes and Strengthening the Climate Change Resilience of the Rio Grande Basin (World Bank). f) requests the Government of Bolivia and the MDBs to take into account written comments submitted by Sub-Committee members by November 15, 2011, in the further development of the projects foreseen in the SPCR.

En el 2004, marcado por las secuelas físicas de un grave accidente de salud pero mentalmente alerta, realizó su más caro sueño desde hacía varios años: regresar al Perú, que iba a ser su último gran viaje. En 1957, el joven de 26 años que no hablaba castellano, aterrizó en Lima por vez primera, luego de un largo sobrevuelo sobre América del Sur con un magnífico clima, atravesando la Amazonía y los Andes —de los que se enamoró inmediatamente— hasta el desierto costero del Pacífico.

  • From “Invisible Natives” to an “Irruption of Indigenous Identity”? Two Decades of Change Among the Tacana in the Northern Bolivian Amazon
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Sondra Wentzel provided by Institutional Repository of the Ibero-American Institute, Berlin From “invisible natives” to an “irruption of indigenous identity”? Two decades of change among the Tacana in the northern Bolivian Amazon “Al final nos dimos cuenta todos que éramos tacanas” (Tacana leader 2001, quoted in Herrera 2009: 1). 1. Introduction: The Tacana In the mid 1980s, a time of redemocratization and structural adjustment policies in Bolivia, consultations about a region suitable for field research on the situation of indigenous peoples in the context of “Amazonian development” led me to the Province of Iturralde in the lowland north of the Department of La Paz (Figure 1). The culture of its indigenous inhabitants, the Tacana,1 had been documented by German researchers in the early 1950s (Hissink & Hahn 1961; 1984). Also, under the motto La Marcha al Norte, the region was the focus of large infrastructure and agro industrial projects which had already stimulated spontaneous colonization, but local people had little information about these activities nor support to defend their rights and interests. Between 1985 and 1988, I conducted about a year of village level field re- search in the region, mainly in Tumupasa, an ex-Franciscan mission among the Tacana founded in 1713 and transferred to its current location around 1770, San- ta Ana, a mixed community founded in 1971, and 25 de Mayo, a highland colonist cooperative whose members had settled between Tumupasa and Santa Ana from 1979 1 Tacana branch of the Pano-Tacanan language family, whose other current members are the Araona, Cavineño, Ese Ejja, and Reyesano (Maropa).

Parasites Vectors (2020) 13:171 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-020-04045-x Parasites & Vectors RESEARCH Open Access Genetic uniformity, geographical spread and anthropogenic habitat modifcations of lymnaeid vectors found in a One Health initiative in the highest human fascioliasis hyperendemic of the Bolivian Altiplano M. Dolores Bargues1*, Patricio Artigas1, Rene Angles2, David Osca1, Pamela Duran1, Paola Buchon3, R. Karina Gonzales‑Pomar3, Julio Pinto‑Mendieta3 and Santiago Mas‑Coma1 Abstract Background: Fascioliasis is a snail‑borne zoonotic trematodiasis emerging due to climate changes, anthropogenic environment modifcations, and livestock movements. Many areas where Fasciola hepatica is endemic in humans have been described in Latin America altitude areas. Highest prevalences and intensities were reported from four provinces of the northern Bolivian Altiplano, where preventive chemotherapy is ongoing. New strategies are now incorporated to decrease infection/re‑infection risk, assessment of human infection sources to enable efcient prevention measures, and additionally a One Health initiative in a selected zone. Subsequent extension of these pilot interventions to the remaining Altiplano is key. Methods: To verify reproducibility throughout, 133 specimens from 25 lymnaeid populations representative of the whole Altiplano, and 11 used for population dynamics studies, were analyzed by rDNA ITS2 and ITS1 and mtDNA cox1 and 16S sequencing to assess their classifcation, variability and geographical spread. Results: Lymnaeid populations proved to belong to a monomorphic group, Galba truncatula. Only a single cox1 mutation was found in a local population. Two cox1 haplotypes were new. Comparisons of transmission foci data from the 1990’s with those of 2018 demonstrated an endemic area expansion.

Casilla 1044. Cochabamba. Bolivia 2 Medio Ambiente y Desarrollo (MEDA). Cochabamba. Bolivia Abstract The Department of La Paz has the largest number of wild potato species (Solanum Section Petota Solanaceae) in Bolivia, some of which are rare and threatened by extinction. Solanum achacachense, S. candolleanum, S. circaeifolium, S. okadae, S. soestii and S. virgultorum were all searched for in their type localities and new areas. Isolated specimens of S. achacachense were found in its type localities, while S. candolleanum was found in low density populations. Solanum circaeifolium was also found as isolated specimens or in low density populations in its type localities, but also in new areas. Solanum soestii and S. okadae were found in small, isolated populations. No specimen of S. virgultorum was found at all. The majority of the wild species searched for suffered the attack of pathogenic fungi. Interviews with local farmers revealed the main factors negatively affecting these species to be loss of habitat through urbanization and the use of the land for agriculture and forestry.

  • Bolivia: the Andes and Chaco Lowlands
    BOLIVIA: THE ANDES AND CHACO LOWLANDS TRIP REPORT OCTOBER/NOVEMBER 2017 By Eduardo Ormaeche Blue-throated Macaw www.birdingecotours.com [email protected] 2 | T R I P R E P O R T Bolivia, October/November 2017 Bolivia is probably one of the most exciting countries of South America, although one of the less-visited countries by birders due to the remoteness of some birding sites. But with a good birding itinerary and adequate ground logistics it is easy to enjoy the birding and admire the outstanding scenery of this wild country. During our 19-day itinerary we managed to record a list of 505 species, including most of the country and regional endemics expected for this tour. With a list of 22 species of parrots, this is one of the best countries in South America for Psittacidae with species like Blue-throated Macaw and Red-fronted Macaw, both Bolivian endemics. Other interesting species included the flightless Titicaca Grebe, Bolivian Blackbird, Bolivian Earthcreeper, Unicolored Thrush, Red-legged Seriema, Red-faced Guan, Dot-fronted Woodpecker, Olive-crowned Crescentchest, Black-hooded Sunbeam, Giant Hummingbird, White-eared Solitaire, Striated Antthrush, Toco Toucan, Greater Rhea, Brown Tinamou, and Cochabamba Mountain Finch, to name just a few. We started our birding holiday as soon as we arrived at the Viru Viru International Airport in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, birding the grassland habitats around the terminal. Despite the time of the day the airport grasslands provided us with an excellent introduction to Bolivian birds, including Red-winged Tinamou, White-bellied Nothura, Campo Flicker, Chopi Blackbird, Chotoy Spinetail, White Woodpecker, and even Greater Rhea, all during our first afternoon.
