The Ecuadorian Economy
1 - The public resources should be directed to
guarantee the rights for the good life. Therefore,
the State must ensure through public sector to
promote the satisfaction of basic needs of the
population such as:
a) Universal education, inclusive and with quality.
b) Accessible health services, continuous, timely,
with quality and without exclusion.
c) Water for human consumption.
d) Permanent access to healthy, sufficient and nu-
tritious food, preferably locally produced and with
the guarantee of food sovereignty.
e) Decent and adequate housing.
f) Safe and healthy habitat.
g) Social security and decent work, with fair wag-
es and salaries. All forms of work should be recog-
nized and must promote access to non-taxpayers
(self-employment, unpaid domestic work, human
care work, intangible work, self-sustaining work in
the field), and to access quality services in health,
workplace hazards, disability and old age retire-
ment.
h) Culture: to encourage the creation and dis-
semination of different cultural expressions, the
exercise of artistic activities and protection of pat-

production sector: they will promote the trans-
formation of the specialization of the economy,
democratization of the means of production,
sustainability of the economic activities and the
rational and responsible use of renewable and
non-renewable resources, productivity gains, and
export diversification.
Likewise, the State will encourage energy sov-
ereignty based on renewable energy, allowing
having the future with an effective, efficient and
friendly environment. Additionally, the allocation
of resources should influence consumer habits. It
will prioritize the allocation of resources, expand-
ing connectivity and telecommunications as es-
sential elements for production.
