Center for the Study of Natural Resources

The Center for the Study of Natural Resources (Spanish: Centro de Estudios de los Recursos Naturales, CERNA) was a Bolivian environmental organization. It was an arm of the prodemocracy movement that opposed policies encouraging foreign ownership of Bolivian resources. [1]

The CERNA was founded by Carlos Brockmann, Jose Lorini, and Guido Capra Gemio in the 1970s. [2]

In 1978, 1979 and 1980 the CERNA took part in an electoral coalition Democratic and Popular Union backing Hernán Siles Zuazo. [3]
