CIDES – Universidad Mayor de San Andrés

CIDES- San Andres University ‒ CIDES-UMSA

La Paz, Bolivia

This organisation may not be a traditional think tank. We have included it in this list as we deem it to be a 'boundary' organisation – in other words, it might have some qualities or characterstics of a think tank.

CIDES - UMSA is the first proposal of the Bolivian university system that articulates in its academic programs - the formation of human resources of the fourth level, of research and in social interaction - the social, human, economic and political sciences in the face of the advances of the science and technology.
