Incahuasi

Biblioteca Municipal

Incahuasi is located in the southern part of the department of Chuquisaca. It is a beautiful (but rural) area with a population of about 15,000, spread over many km, and is mainly known for its production of vegetables and livestock breeding.

The Municipal Library is located in the city center, and was built in conjunction with the Municipal Government of Incahuasi and Biblioworks. It plays an important role in supporting education for the children and adolescents of Incahuasi, many of whom live at boarding schools in the city center as there are no secondary schools in their home villages, which are sometimes located up to 6 hours away.
