INTERCULTURAL ECUADOR
CULTURAL RIGHTS
Moreover, it recognizes the cultural rights (religious, linguistic, artistic, judicial, territorial, sexual and others) of groups such as adolescents, women, young people, groups and people with disabilities.
This recognition is known as "intercultural dialogue”
Currently, the Constitution guarantees the rights of indigenous peoples, Afro-Ecuadorians and Montuvians.
CHALLENGES OF INTERCULTURALITY IN ECUADOR
The road to an intercultural country involves, in addition to changes in the Constitution, deep transformations in structures of our country.
Interculturality supposes no only recognition but participation.
Despite the advances of Ecuador in relation to with intercultural dialogue, there is still a lot to do so that the obtained conquests by Indians, blacks and others are consolidated totally.
RECOGNITION OF INDIGENOUS RIGHTS
Thanks to the struggle of the indigenous people, the Ecuadorian government has recognized the rights of cultures who inhabit the country.
An example of this is the intercultural bilingual education, which guarantees that indigenous people have access to education in their own language and that this, in turn, is taught and promoted among the sectors that speak Spanish.
ECUADORIAN CULTURAL DIVERSITY
Education does little to encourage dialogue between cultures and the recognition of differences.
Indigenous and black peoples, women and other groups in society do not appear in the history books, instead we see information dedicated to exalt the heroic acts of a few male characters.
INTERCULTURAL DIALOGUE
Ecuador must become a more democratic and fair society, by balancing diversity and national unity.
The recognition of the cultural rights of the groups that inhabit Ecuador should not nbbe carried out to the detriment of others.
Intercultural dialogue means understanding that, just as our cultural manifestations must be recognized and respected by others,
DISCRIMINATION
To say that blacks are lazy people, indigenous people are poor, women are inferior to men, or that immigrants encourage crime and insecurity are just some of the misconceptions that feed racism, machismo and xenophobia.
As a consequence of the economic system that characterizes our country (capitalism), the gap between rich and poor has widened.
