INE revela tasa de crecimiento económico de 0,7% de 2024 y culpa a los bloqueos

Bolivia’s 2024 economic growth of 0.7% marks its lowest expansion in over two decades, significantly underperforming government estimates. This stagnation is primarily attributed to widespread social blockades that severely disrupted key economic sectors such as transport, commerce, and manufacturing, causing tangible declines in national activity. The data reveals divergent sectoral performances, with hospitality and financial services showing resilience, while hydrocarbons and public administration suffered. Agricultural output also faced challenges from droughts and social unrest, highlighting how local socio-political volatility directly impacts macroeconomic indicators and production chains. This report is relevant to open data advocates because it demonstrates the critical importance of transparent, timely, and granular statistical disclosure. By exposing the stark gap between official projections and reality, it underscores the need for accessible, high-quality data to hold institutions accountable and inform accurate public policy analysis.
