La Paz – Two awards praise Italy’s extensive cooperation and assistance program implemented in Bolivia in recent years through various programs in different sectors. The first award was delivered to Ambassador Placido Vigo during World Food Day, while the second was handed over to the Director of the Italian Cooperation, Felice Longobardi. Italy, together with the European Union, was the only international institution that was granted this important recognition, which is a great sign of esteem and is a strong motivator to continue strengthening the development aid activities in the Andean region.
