Presencia (lit.'Presence') was a daily newspaper published in La Paz, Bolivia, from 1952 to 2001. The paper had the largest print circulation in the country and was considered a newspaper of record, being the only publication that did not reflect partisan interests. Founded on 28 March 1952 by the Episcopal Conference of Bolivia, it often served as an outlet for the Catholic Church in Bolivia.
