The economic policy of our government aims at an endogenous and sustainable strategy, it
focuses on the design of public policy that transforms the systems of accumulation,
redistribution and distribution with a territorial approach that allows to reduce inequities, so
planning becomes important public investment, tax and production incentives and public
credit policies all of this together looks to democratize access to means of production.
The government of the citizen revolution has generated a series of plans and programs
which go (in favor) towards reviving the national economy, with an emphasis on the
improving of quality of life indicators, especially from those sectors that historically
discriminated such as indigenous and Afro-Ecuadorians. From this base, I will describe a
number of policies, plans and programs that are now underway in which we try to generate
greater inclusion and participation of minorities, whether they are due to ethnic, gender, or
disability.
1. National Plan for Well Being/Good Living:
It poses new challenges oriented to the materialization and radicalization of the project of the
change of the Citizen Revolution, to the construction of a Plurinational and Intercultural State,
to finally achieve Well Being/Good Living. It poses innovative, technical, and political
challenges from the conceptual rupture posed with the ideals of the Washington Consensus
and the more orthodox conceptions of the concept of development.
Here is a roadmap implemented since, the public policy should lay deeper the groundwork for
the departure of the expired structures, neocolonial and exclusive; this is our chart towards
the consolidation of Well Being/Good Living, seen and understood from the collective
construction.
2. Plurinational Plan Against Racial Discrimination, Ethnic Exclusion and Cultural
The Plan is a tool that through public policy promotes plans and programs that have to be
implemented by the State as a whole to promote the inclusion of the people and indigenous
nationalities and Afro-Descendant. It has an extensive program of 5-axis and 56 actions that
are being developed from public investment as inclusion policies.
The guiding principles of the plan are:
The right to equality in the difference
The right to non-discrimination of all citizens
Cultural liberty and free expression of identity
Peaceful, intra-ethnic and intercultural coexistence of Ecuadorians
The guarantee of cultural and collective right
Reparation and compensation of inequalities in the access to the rights of victims of racism
and discrimination.
