Political Divisions and Principal Cities Ecuador is divided into 20 provinces, which are subdivided into cantons and urban and rural parishes. Quito, the capital, is situated in the northern Andes and in 1990 had a population of 1,100,847. Guayaquil, in the southwest, with a population of 1,300,868, was the principal port and commercial center. Other cities include Cuenca (194,981), an industrial and commercial center; Machala (144,197), a commercial and farming center; and Ambato (124,166), a resort area and a commercial and transportation center. Language and Religion The official and most widely used language in Ecuador is Spanish. Many rural Native Americans speak Quechua, the original language of the Inca people. Most Native Americans in Ecuador became converts to the Roman Catholic faith during the years following the conquest of Peru and Ecuador by the Spanish. Roman Catholicism became the state religion in 1863, but by 1889 a liberal movement resulted in a partial severance of church from state. A decree of 1904 placed the church under state control; properties of religious orders were confiscated, and absolute freedom of religion was introduced. Today Roman Catholicism is the faith of more than 90 percent of the population. The Native Americans of the Oriente maintain ancient religions; members of various Protestant denominations make up less than 1 percent of the population. Education A campaign to reduce the high illiteracy rate in Ecuador was started in 1944, and by the early 1990s about 85 percent of the people aged 15 or more years were literate. Education in principle is free and compulsory for all children between the ages of 6 and 14. Many rural areas, however, do not have schools.

24. IEEP INSTITUTES MONETARY REFORM IN EQUADOR Who would believe that the Ecuadorian government s recent move to dollarize theeconomy has its roots in a humble, freemarket institute located in the port http://www.atlasusa.org/highlight_archive/2000/H2000-01-IEEP.html

IEEP INSTITUTES MONETARY REFORM IN ECUADOR "The role of Dora de Ampuero and the IEEP has been transcendental in this most important change of Ecuador. Praise must be given to this untiring fighter for liberty." José Luis Cordeiro, president, Venezuelan Exporters Association There is no demonstrable, scientific way to trace how ideas get implemented into public policy. Yet, one thing is certain: policy changes do not occur magically and automatically. They typically result from the relentless efforts of many dedicated individuals. The story of Dora de Ampuero, president of the Instituto Ecuatoriano de Economía Política (IEEP), provides an illustrative example of how a persistent devotion to ideas can lead to effective public policy reform. Who would believe that the Ecuadorian government's recent move to dollarize the economy has its roots in a humble, free-market institute located in the port city of Guayaquil? Yet, beyond doubt, the IEEP has played, and continues to play, a key role in bringing effective ideas for monetary reform to this Latin American country. Dora first came to Atlas in 1989 while pursuing graduate studies at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia. As a student, she attended a seminar at

Making History, Building Our Future: FCM ANNOUNCES A NEW TASKFORCE ON CANADIAN WOMEN IN MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT “Municipalities across the country are finding it increasingly difficult to attract candidates to serve as councillors or mayors.” In the Jan/Feb Edition of Forum, Susan Anne Wade, asked, “Where have all the candidates gone?” The article challenges us to explore ways to improve participation in civic elections. Not only is the number of election candidates diminishing, but the number of elected women in local government is also diminishing. One reason for the decreasing number of women may be the complex and demanding role facing councillors in municipal government. We are seeing local government change dramatically with more responsibilities being added while at the same time we are also seeing increasing community needs. Promoting the participation of women in government deserves our serious consideration. Women can provide valuable insights. They experience life differently, shaped by the norms and traditions that define roles and responsibilities. Women have often been recognized for their contribution as community volunteers, working on concerns such as: food cooperatives, daycare centres, community health and the environment, self-help groups, and church organizations.

REPORT FROM EQUADOR By Freeda Burnstad (Ms. Burnstad is president of the Cloud Forest Institute. She has recently returned from Ecuador, where she spent several months studying local agricultural organization and techniques while promoting cultural and economic sustainability. Her report begins with on-site observations this past March, and continues with reflections upon her return.) I should have thought ahead and realized that I would be the one learning the most in this experience, rather then my students. For some reason I wasn't as prepared as I thought for the intense realizations I've been having. The past three weeks have been challenging to say the least, in both professional and personal aspects. During our two weeks in Mindo I went from enchanted and ecstatic to frustrated and confused - and back and forth. I made some perspective shattering realizations; first, that you cannot invest trust even in old friends, second (I knew this one already) all of your preplanning doesn't insure that others will follow through in theirs, and hardest of all was to realize that good intentions do not always produce good outcomes. It hurts me to see the change and to watch the community struggle with it. It is even worse to realize I am at fault and I'm working to brings more influence to the community. I have had to really consider my intentions and more than that the possible outcomes of continuing to work within the community. The following is an excerpt from my journal.

ECUADOR Evangelicals called to solve crisis QUITO, March l7 (ALC) The Ecuadorian Evangelical Confraternity called on the Church and society to "persevere in a constructive spirit and to seek solutions" in the face of the serious economic and political crisis racking Ecuador. We want "to be the voice of the poor and needy, who we serve, who we form part of and who cannot withstand more suffering. Unfortunately, many of those who have access to public spaces talk about the poor in abstract terms. We speak of the poor with an Ecuadorian face," said a document published by the entity that brings together the majority of Evangelical Churches in this South American country. "We believe that this is the time for compassion and to build horizons of hope. We affirm that today is the time for justice, solidarity and low," said Evangelical Churches as a series of strikes and protests have been launched against President Jamil Mahuad's economic measures. The severity of the situation motivated the US State Department to warn political parties that they must seek a solution to the economic crisis "within the Constitution."
