dc.description.abstractRecent legal reforms have enabled 11 of Bolivia’s 339 municipalities to initiate conversion into autonomous, indigenous self-governments. This paper reflects on research excellence as part of the ongoing project, “Building Research Capacity for Indigenous Self-Governance in Bolivia.” The most important outputs and impacts of the project so far have been unexpectedly informal, unplanned and process-oriented. For example, producing journal articles is simpler than being able to strengthen the research capacity of rural indigenous community leaders or the research culture of an NGO. NGO-community relations remain an important topic for academic and policy-oriented analysis. The paper observes some pathways to research excellence.en
