Departmental Councils of Education
The Departmental Councils of Education are advisory bodies for the oversight and control of the education sector. They can make observations, recommendations and suggestions regarding the development and quality of education. They are made up of representatives from different sectors of the Bolivian society: a representative of each District Board, a representative of the Trade Union Organization of Teachers of the Department, two representatives of the Public Universities and the Private Universities, and a representative of the student organizations at the secondary and superior levels. Representatives of the bodies designated in the Law of Popular Participation, such as the Popular Participation Councils and the Associations of Base Territorial Organizations, may also participate.
