🚨 AVISO! Las organizaciones indígenas Waorani de Pastaza(OWAP), Nación Siekopaai y A’i Cofán de Sinangoe exigen al @Educacion_Ec , a la @SEIBEec y a la @Vice_Ec el cumplimiento inmediato de los acuerdos establecidos el pasado 10 de abril para avanzar en la implementación de sus Proyectos Educativos Comunitarios (PEC). La falta de acción y coordinación institucional mantiene bloqueado el registro formal de los tejidos curriculares de estas nacionalidades. Además, la mesa técnica prevista para el 14 de mayo en Arajuno fue CANCELADA sin ningún oficio formal. Se exige: ▪️ Respuestas oficiales sobre los acuerdos incumplidos ▪️ Convocatorias formales a las mesas técnicas ▪️ Coordinación inmediata con los analistas de la SEIBE ▪️ El fin de las dilaciones en el proceso educativo intercultural La educación propia es un derecho!

Indigenous-led education is already underway in the Amazon. Now #Ecuador’s @Educacion_Ec must formally register these models & allocate the budget and capacity they require. The right exists since 1988. Political will must follow.

🪈For #Siekopai children, pride in ancestral culture is nurtured through music, tradition, and learning from elders. Playing traditional flutes is more than sound—it’s identity, memory, and wisdom passed between generations. 🔗 amazonfrontlines.org/chronicles/com…
