Young to Bolivia - Photographic Reportage

<p> Welcome to the project : "<strong>Young people in Bolivia</strong>" !</p> <p> We are <em>Italian students</em> at the institute "ITC Piovene" of <em>Vicenza</em>. Our group is formed by a dozen young <em>people who loves to travel and experience new cultures</em>.</p> <p> Thanks to the cooperation <strong><em>with the Association Munasim Kullakita</em></strong> we initiated a project of interrelation (using video conferences) between <u>us and a group of girls rescued from child prostitution in La Paz in Bolivia.</u></p> <p> We exchanged each other <em>emotions, experiences, dreams and an irrepressible curiosity</em> in wanting to know each other, between our world in<em> Italy and in Europe</em> and the other, in <em>Bolivia and South America.</em></p> <p> The project aims to culminate <em><u>our visit in their own beautiful land, Bolivia.</u></em></p> <p> We want to realize this dream, <em>we want to meet and embrace each other, we would be able to actually see each other without using a screen.</em></p> <p> We would like to <em>know the many realities that distinguish Bolivia, from poverty that afflicts this people to the world of the natives as the Aymara.</em></p> <p> This part of the project has an idea.</p> <p> <strong>Thanks to <em><strong>o</strong>ne of our students, passionate about photography for a long time, we want to make a photo report that documents all the beauties and misfortunes that exist in Bolivia</em></strong>. We would like to talk through the picture of <em>poverty, school education of children, many indigenous peoples living in the country, some social ills such as drug dealing, child prostitution and degrading prisons.</em></p> <p>  But at the same time we want to talk through a photocamera of b<em>eautiful landscapes of this region, from the Andes to the valleys, the crater lakes to the Amazon forest.</em></p> <p> We'll show you some aid projects funded by the <u>European Union and by our Ministry of Foreign Affairs</u>.</p> <p> <u><em>We will present a genuine Bolivia, strong, multinational, unique and a nation that does not give up despite the many difficulties.</em></u></p> <p> How many of you have ever seen a <strong><em>photo exhibition on the tribes in Bolivia?</em></strong></p> <p>  <em>By Aymara to Tacaná, from Quechua to Arawak</em>.</p> <p> These and many other indigenous peoples represent the <em>cultural wealth of this country.</em></p> <p> Our purpose is to s<em>pread their habits, their customs, their traditions, their culture through photography.</em></p> <p> <u><em>We ask your cooperation to support part of the travel costs to realize this Italian and Bolivian dream.</em></u></p> <p> <u><em>We will perceive no gain but the proceeds will help us to achieve our Bolivian friends. To share their culture with us, and with all of you.</em></u></p> <p> We will realize this project with great care and we will show this side of Bolivia to anyone, thanks to Internet, social networks and photo exhibitions.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <em>We hope that we will live this dream.</em></p> <p> <em>Thank you for your collaboration.</em></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>       <img alt="H_-foresta__3_-1427659027" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179728/h_-foresta__3_-1427659027.jpg">   <img alt="A_-_altiplano__01_-1427658853" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179726/a_-_altiplano__01_-1427658853.jpg">   <img alt="E_-_in_citt___20_-1427658911" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179727/e_-_in_citt___20_-1427658911.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> Some pics of me!</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Img_1416-1427661681" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179741/IMG_1416-1427661681.JPG"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Img_1414-1427661704" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/179742/IMG_1414-1427661704.JPG"></p> <p>  </p>
