Description
Bolivia's National Institute of Statistics, which includes some 800,000 volunteers, conducts the country's first census in 12 years, which the government hopes will lead to a better distribution of economic resources among regions and political seats in Congress. Alex Mendoza, who is the census supervisor in Laja, 25 kilometers west of La Paz, says this count will help determine the number of people who speak the Indigenous Aymara language. "It shows that the Aymara language is still alive," he says. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
