Bolivia is currently facing a severe crisis due to a combination of intense winter heat fueled by the climate crisis and the El Niño phenomenon. Large portions of the country are experiencing drought, water shortages, and rising average temperatures. Local authorities have issued stark warnings, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation during what has turned out to be the hottest winter ever recorded in the country. Temperatures have skyrocketed to a scorching 40°C. Notably, on 25 September, Bolivia recorded its highest-ever September temperature, reaching 40.3°C. In the weeks ahead, some regions are expected to experience even more extreme temperatures, potentially reaching as high as 45°C. By December, there is a “high probability” Bolivia's iconic Lake Titicaca will be 64cm below the drought alert level, breaking a low water record set in 1998 by 33cm [...] In the seven departments affected by the droughts, approximately 2,000 communities and 487,014 families, totaling 1,948,056 individuals, have been impacted. Among them, 140,923 families, encompassing 563,692 individuals, are in need of immediate assistance due to the difficulties they face in maintaining their livelihoods.
