Values we learn from Bolivia’s popular struggle:

1. Popular struggles lead to an expansion of democracy because the people struggle for what they need or protest against what they think is wrong.

3. Conflicts and mobilizations become stronger when aided political agencies like parties, pressure groups or movement groups.
