The Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE) Since its formation in 1986, CONAIE has led the Indigenous peoples of Ecuador from relative isolation to a position at center stage of Ecuadorian society. CONAIE is the representative body that guarantees Indigenous people the political voice that has too long been denied them, and that expresses their needs and goals within a rapidly changing world.

Political Declaration of Ecuador's Indigenous Peoples The Fourth Congress of the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE) was held from December 15- 18, 1993. The following is the political declaration of the Congress. POLITICAL DECLARATION We, the indigenous nationalities and peoples, have built a solidly structured national political organization with a clear ideology based on our own historical and cultural activities, and we propose to construct the New Multinational Nation. Despite the marginalization, discrimination, oppression and exclusion to which we have been subjected by the dominant sectors that control political, economic and military power, we, the indigenous peoples and nationalities, have succeeded in recuperating the political space usurped in 1492 in order to question and expose the social injustice and economic exploitation, the inefficient and decrepit legal-political and administrative system, as well as the anti-democratic character of state power and its institutions. The political objectives of the indigenous peoples and nationalities aim to guarantee the fulfillment of our specific rights and propose the harmonic and balanced development of all of society in a context of peace and full democracy, for which we call upon all political and social sectors that coexist in the present territory of Ecuador to participate actively and creatively in the solution of the grave problems that have historically oppressed us.

Understanding Ecuador: "Indigenous Peoples, Populist Colonels, and Globalization" by Immanuel Wallerstein Fernand Braudel Center, Binghamton University http://fbc.binghamton.edu/commentr.htm Commentary No. 33, Feb. 1, 2000 In the first month of the twenty-first century, a small drama was enacted in Ecuador, a country whose politics seem obscure to most people elsewhere in the world. This small drama however illustrated one of the key issues of the next fifty years. If the last half of the twentieth century was a period of so-called decolonization everywhere - that is, the end of colonial rule by European powers over non-European territories - it is now the turn of the "internally colonized" to make their voices heard. The Vice-President, now President, announced that he would continue the economic policies against which CONAIE was protesting, and that he would seek to punish the army rebels. The U.S. government promptly recognized the new government. The head of CONAIE emerged from hiding briefly to announce that the army had betrayed CONAIE by breaking their solemn promises, that he would seek to negotiate with the new President, but that if, within 3-6 months, there were no changes, the situation might well deteriorate into civil war.

Updated Contacts Documents Events Related MMSD Reports Indigenous Peopl es (In cooperation with Mining Policy Research Initiative of the International Development Research Centre Ambiente y Sociedad AMEEF , MMSD Australia) Many of the world's richest land in mineral, energy and biodiversity resources have traditionally been occupied by indigenous peoples. In the past there have been incidences of displacement and land disputes associated with mining activities. Though mining projects can bring jobs, roads, schools and health clinics to remote and impoverished areas, these benefits may be perceived as poor recompense for the loss or damage to indigenous cultures. Political liberalisation, allied to a more consensual approach to resolving land use conflicts, is adding a new dimension to this issue. Indigenous peoples have been gaining increasing power over the incidence of projects in their lands and have achieved important recognition in international agreements: Collective right to consultation prior to any project planning in their lands (ILO Convention 169) The inclusion of operational guidelines for loans for projects in indigenous land (World Bank, OD 4.20)

Volunteer In Ecuador Volunteer Abroad Volunteer In The USA How To Apply ... Request Information Ecuador's People Descendants of Ancient Societies Eleven unique cultures weave harmoniously together to form Ecuador's Indigenous population. By far the largest ethnic group is the Andean Quichua, who number more than two million. The Quichua, the Otavalenos, Salasacas, and Saraguros - all residing in the Ecuadorian Andes - keep the languages of the ancient Incas alive. As a volunteer, you will experience Ecuador through her people.... through the eyes of children, their families and their care-givers. Archaeologists trace the first inhabitants as far back as 10,000 BC, when hunters and gatherers established settlements on the southern coast and in the central highlands. By 3,200 BC three distinct agricultural-based civilizations had emerged, producing some of the hemisphere's oldest known pottery. Advanced indigenous cultures such as the Chorrera, Jama Coaque, Bahia, Tolita, Machalilla and Valdivia ( the oldest known culture in the Americas ), flourished between 12,000 B.C. to 1,500 A.D. in Ecuador territory. Today, Ecuador's population is ethnically mixed: 55 percent mestizo (mixed indigenous - Caucasian), 25 percent Indigenous (Indian),10 percent Caucasian, nine percent African, and one percent other. Years of oil exploration destroyed large sectors of the Amazonian rainforest ecosystem and displaced an indigenous people, the Huaroni, who made the rainforest their home and have now been pushed to the edge of extinction.

Market women in felt hats, from the indigenous Indian communities of Cotopaxi province, come here three times a week to sell their vegetables. They struggle to make a living at the best of times, but lately the women complain they have never had it so bad. "No one has any money. If this goes on, we are all going to die of hunger," said Laura Espin, a 55-year-old Quichua Indian selling parsley and coriander for 1,000 sucres (four cents) per bunch. Last month, thousands of indigenous men and women in traditional dress many carrying small children on their backs marched 55 miles across the sierra from Latacunga to the capital, Quito, to demand political and economic reforms. The government fell and the country's Harvard-educated president, Jamil Mahuad, was ousted from office.

Advocacy/Campaigns Issue Background Revitalizing the Indigenous Movement in Ecuador Fall, 98 Carmen Yamberla is president of the Indigenous and Peasants' Federation of Imbabura (FICI), an Oxfam America partner in the Ecuadorean Andes. FICI was founded in 1974 to resist discrimination against indigenous people who were denined access to land, despite the many large, underutilized or abandoned haciendas. FICI helped to mobilize indigenous peoples to get laws passed allowing communities to claim unoccupied haciendas. Carmen is FICI's first female president, widely credited with its revitalization following an institutional crisis in the early 1990s. Under her leadership, FICI has expanded its outreach to 150 indigenous communities, formed alliances to increase its effectiveness and ensured accountability of FICI's leadership to its members. "My parents are very important to me. They are farmers. My father has a fourth grade education and my mother is illiterate and only speaks Quichua. She encouraged me to go to school because she didn't want me to be as dependent as she had been on others. My father supported this until fifth grade, when he thought I should be helping out at home. My parents disagreed on this and finally my father said I could finish primary school, but he wouldn't pay the fees. So other family members helped with the fees. I was one of only five indigenous children in the school.
