This video explores how ALBA has helped Nicaragua's Sandinista government balance the imperative of promoting trade and employment with the need to protect and help the most vulnerable sectors of the population. The solid economic and social coherence of the Bolivarian Alliance of the peoples of the Americas can be seen here in a concrete way along with its deep moral integrity. With ALBA, the democratization of the country's economy has brought new dynamism to its trade and increased employment. At the same time, the solidarity driven commitment to guarantee fundamental rights to the most vulnerable has restored those rights to hundreds of thousands of people who had been abandoned during 16 years of neoliberal governments.
