March 21, 2002, Rosalba takes over the leadership of the Earthgardens
Above, Princess Rosalba initiated a massive mural painting program in her town, covering over obsolete political graffitti.

Rosalbas murals and stencils made locals aware of the importance of Parque AMBORO to the supply of fresh water in Bolivia and the habitat of one of the worlds richest biodiversity. Unfortunately her reign ended on a sad note, when all earthgardens activity was stopped when agents of the US Bush administration destroyed the works on april 23.
