    The Role Of Women In Popular Education In Bolivia
    (Midwest Research-to-Practice Conference in Adult, Continuing, and Community Education, 2003) Kollins, Judith M.; Hansman, Catherine A.
    In the face of poverty and long-term political instability in Bolivia, many adult educators are working towards social justice, focusing students on economic opportunities and maintaining their indigenous culture. The process is complex and often compounded by the sociocultural context in which the learning takes place, particularly when examining education and justice for women and minorities. However, in cases when the educational model takes daily life within local cultures into account (popular education), true learning and change can be seen.
