Rural poverty in Bolivia<p>The Plurinational State of Bolivia is South America's poorest country. In the countryside, poverty is widespread and deeply entrenched, particularly among the nation's indigenous people, who constitute the majority.<p>About 60 per cent of Bolivians live below the national poverty line. The percentage is higher in rural areas, where three out of four people live in poverty. Indigenous communities, women and young people are particularly vulnerable to poverty and food insecurity.
