The College: Unidad Academica Campesina - Carmen Pampa

The College is dedicated to making higher education available to young Bolivians with talent and ambition but with few economic resources.

Through programs that address the most pressing concerns of rural people—health, education, agriculture, animal husbandry, and the environment—the College gives young Bolivians the tools to become leaders in the development of their own communities.

Integrated in its academic curriculum are unique comenents that contribute to students' educational experience:

Service Extention and Outreach

With a specific focus on surrounding communities, UAC-CP students and staff share knowledge and expertise with community members and provide health care, animal care, educational, and agricultural services.

Research

In each academic program, students and faculty research common problems faced by people in Bolivia's rural area and work to develop sustainable and participatory solutions. Students must complete an original research project addressing a community need in order to graduate.

Production

Through the production and sale of meat products, coffee, the College increases the incomes of local farm families, ensures the economic sustainability of the College and trains rural people in production techniques that will improve the long-term economic viability of the region.
