Jose Mujica, the former president of Uruguay, has died at the age of 89. A former guerrilla who spent over a decade in prison, Mujica rose to become one of Latin America's most respected leaders. He was internationally celebrated for his humble lifestyle—living in a modest farmhouse and donating most of his salary to charity—as well as his progressive social reforms on issues like same-sex marriage and cannabis legalization.

Al Jazeera’s Teresa Bo reports on the legacy of the man known as the "world’s humblest head of state."
