Evo’s Bolivia: Continuity and Change

April 25, 2016 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm EDT

[SC-156]. Linda Farthing, a writer and educator with 25 years experience in Latin America as a study abroad director, film field producer and journalist/independent scholar, will deliver a talk called “Evo’s Bolivia: Continuity and Change.” The talk, Evo’s Bolivia: Continuity and Change, explores the changes underway in one of South America’s lowest income countries, landlocked Bolivia. Since 2006, the western hemisphere’s first contemporary indigenous president, Evo Morales, has led a government committed to favoring indigenous people and the poor. The talk provides a balanced assessment of the nine years of the Morales government. Along with an accompanying powerpoint, it has been presented at 10 universities, including Cornell, UC Berkeley, University of London and Bucknell.
