National Dialogue: "Productive Bolivia"
The National Dialogue 2004 ?Productive Bolivia? had the participation of rural and indigenous organizations, farmers, and trade unions. It aimed to define Bolivia's Comprehensive Productive Strategies. The Dialogue consisted in 53 pre-dialogues, 314 local roundtables and nine regional roundtables, which sought to include aspects of the municipal, departmental and national realities; in addition to the rural and urban areas, taking into account their autonomy, traditions, and customs. As a result, eight national priorities were established, as well as initiatives and proposals for cross-cutting social themes such as health, education, justice, gender, and regulatory and fiscal reforms. There were 567 participants in total: 470 lead speakers and 97 observers.
