Have Friends on the Ground Where You Need Them Most
Often, it’s not the decision to help, but the actual getting there and doing it that is the hard part. When you’re traveling to another country with no translator, no way of getting supplies, and rudimentary transportation, it adds unexpected and unwelcome obstacles to your engineering goals.
In Bolivia, EIA is there to help you. We maintain a local office with Bolivian engineers who keep up with local villages and their needs. We can take care of the details so that you can concentrate on the real reason you’re there.
Why go through us
1) Indigenous connections. Our engineers in Bolivia were born and raised there. They know the land and the people. They know what is needed. This kind of insight gives us the ability to develop projects that will most benefit the people who live there. You don’t need to waste time doing research or submitting projects to EWB for approval. We’ve done it all already.
2) Logistical support. Getting the supplies for a dozen eco-latrines out to a remote mountain village is hard enough even when you’re not trying to do it from half a world away. With our people on the ground in Bolivia, we can get what you need to where you need it. We can help you make sure you have food, lodging, and transportation. In short, we can help you get your job done with as little hassle as possible.
