Guayaquil, Ecuador's biggest city and home to the country's largest port, has gradually become the epicentre of the country's crime problems as cartels exploit its strategic location and logistics to move drugs out of the country, also towards European ports. Authorities are unable to tackle this critical situation, also due to the ongoing political crisis that has intensified after the accusation of alleged links between organised crime and the political elite. The crisis has deepened since January 2023, as criminal organisations started adopting new tactics, using explosives in the streets to intensify the terror among the population. For the first time in the country¿s history, a presidential candidate and five local political candidates were assassinated by targeted killings in August 2023 and February 2023 respectively. The proposed intervention therefore seeks to contribute to more efficient and coordinated ways of working between relevant state institutions active in the fight against organised crime and thus foster the adoption of measures to help reduce the illicit drug trafficking flows from Ecuador to the European Union.European CommissionOther multilateral institutionService for Foreign Policy InstrumentsPlanned Start: 2023-11-15Actual Start: 2023-11-15Planned End: 2027-04-24FPIEC - Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI)+32 2 584 11 11fpi-info@ec.europa.euhttps://fpi.ec.europa.eu/index_enEEAS Building, Rond-Point Schuman 9A, 1046, Brussels, BelgiumEcuadorECEcuadorCivilian peace-building, conflict prevention and resolutionSDG 16: Peace and Justice Strong InstitutionsGender EqualityAid to EnvironmentParticipatory Development/Good GovernanceAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological DiversityAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - MitigationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - AdaptationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat DesertificationReproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH)Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR)DisabilityNutrition120000European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy Instruments2000000European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsThe conditions for implementation are outlined in the document.XI-IATI-EC_FPI-2022-ACT-61588European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsThe fragility of Ecuador¿s stability is currently being harshly tested. In June 2022, protests plunged the country into further uncertainty, paving the way for a deepening political crisis that has as yet to be abated. Although also joined by city dwellers, the June protests were mostly driven by indigenous groups. Their discontent is based on several issues ranging from rising inflation and worsened social inequalities to longstanding concerns on the negative impact caused by the extractive industry. The expansion of extractive industries on indigenous territories continues to be one of the main drivers of conflict and of ecological disasters that are affecting, in particular but not only, indigenous communities. The recent agreements between the government and indigenous groups present an opportune opening to support the country in preventing the resurgence of socio-economic and environmental conflicts. Taking advantage of these advances, the action aims to contribute to the prevention and peaceful resolution of socio-environmental conflicts due to natural resource extraction in Ecuador.European CommissionDeveloping country-based NGOService for Foreign Policy InstrumentsPlanned Start: 2022-12-02Actual Start: 2022-12-02Planned End: 2026-08-28FPIEC - Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI)+32 2 584 11 11fpi-info@ec.europa.euhttps://fpi.ec.europa.eu/index_enEEAS Building, Rond-Point Schuman 9A, 1046, Brussels, BelgiumEcuadorECEcuadorCivilian peace-building, conflict prevention and resolutionSDG 16: Peace and Justice Strong InstitutionsSDG 05: Gender EqualityGender EqualityAid to EnvironmentParticipatory Development/Good GovernanceAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological DiversityAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - MitigationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - AdaptationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat DesertificationReproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH)Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR)DisabilityNutrition2000000European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsThe conditions for implementation are outlined in the document.XI-IATI-EC_FPI-2022-ACT-60772European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsEcuador is experiencing a rapid rise of violent deaths in its prisons. The situation is posing a serious threat to both national and regional security. The Government of Ecuador has declared six states of emergencies over the past two years, with the military and police forces intervening to try to regain control of the most problematic prisons. A failure to stem, and eventually reverse, insecurity could impact stability and undermine the Government¿s efforts to strengthen the country¿s institutions and increase citizens¿ confidence. This measure seeks to mitigate the spill-over of the current penitentiary and penal crisis on the security and stability of Ecuador.European CommissionOther multilateral institutionService for Foreign Policy InstrumentsPlanned Start: 2022-05-17Actual Start: 2022-05-17Planned End: 2023-12-31FPIEC - Service for Foreign Policy Instruments (FPI)+32 2 584 11 11fpi-info@ec.europa.euhttps://fpi.ec.europa.eu/index_enEEAS Building, Rond-Point Schuman 9A, 1046, Brussels, BelgiumEcuadorECEcuadorCivilian peace-building, conflict prevention and resolutionSDG 16: Peace and Justice Strong InstitutionsGender EqualityAid to EnvironmentParticipatory Development/Good GovernanceAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention on Biological DiversityAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - MitigationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Framework Convention on Climate Change - AdaptationAid Targeting the Objectives of the Convention to Combat DesertificationReproductive, Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (RMNCH)Disaster Risk Reduction(DRR)DisabilityNutrition2500000European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsThe conditions for implementation are outlined in the document.XI-IATI-EC_FPI-2026-PC-87602European Commission - Service for Foreign Policy InstrumentsContract related to: Strengthening of Security Coordination Mechanisms in Guayaquil - Extension - A combination of internal and external factors, inter alia, Ecuador´s strategic geographical position, the demobilisation of the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC), security sector reforms implemented by previous governments and the infiltration of Mexican drug cartels in local gangs in the country, have led to alarming homicide rates.
