Some 25,000 people marched in Cuenca; 5,000 marched in the city of Loja; 4,000 marched in Puyo; 3,000 marched in the city of Esmeraldas. Smaller demonstrations were staged in other cities.

REPORT FROM EQUADOR By Freeda Burnstad (Ms. Burnstad is president of the Cloud Forest Institute. She has recently returned from Ecuador, where she spent several months studying local agricultural organization and techniques while promoting cultural and economic sustainability. Her report begins with on-site observations this past March, and continues with reflections upon her return.) I should have thought ahead and realized that I would be the one learning the most in this experience, rather then my students. For some reason I wasn't as prepared as I thought for the intense realizations I've been having. The past three weeks have been challenging to say the least, in both professional and personal aspects. During our two weeks in Mindo I went from enchanted and ecstatic to frustrated and confused - and back and forth. I made some perspective shattering realizations; first, that you cannot invest trust even in old friends, second (I knew this one already) all of your preplanning doesn't insure that others will follow through in theirs, and hardest of all was to realize that good intentions do not always produce good outcomes. It hurts me to see the change and to watch the community struggle with it. It is even worse to realize I am at fault and I'm working to brings more influence to the community. I have had to really consider my intentions and more than that the possible outcomes of continuing to work within the community. The following is an excerpt from my journal.

Peter ECUADOR GREEN CITY REVISITED, AUGUST '99 by Peter Berg When the people of a small urban area decide to pass a law declaring an "ecological city," it is an unusual and laudable act of public dedication. If there are already some extensive reforestation projects immediately nearby, and a non-profit estuary protection agency that employs local residents along the river as workers and guides, this city could strive to actually become harmonious with its surrounding natural systems. And if it is located in the "undeveloped world" and thereby offers a working model for the entire planet (including the "developed" world), it presents a glowing vision of sustainabilty to

Making History, Building Our Future: FCM ANNOUNCES A NEW TASKFORCE ON CANADIAN WOMEN IN MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT “Municipalities across the country are finding it increasingly difficult to attract candidates to serve as councillors or mayors.” In the Jan/Feb Edition of Forum, Susan Anne Wade, asked, “Where have all the candidates gone?” The article challenges us to explore ways to improve participation in civic elections. Not only is the number of election candidates diminishing, but the number of elected women in local government is also diminishing. One reason for the decreasing number of women may be the complex and demanding role facing councillors in municipal government. We are seeing local government change dramatically with more responsibilities being added while at the same time we are also seeing increasing community needs. Promoting the participation of women in government deserves our serious consideration. Women can provide valuable insights. They experience life differently, shaped by the norms and traditions that define roles and responsibilities. Women have often been recognized for their contribution as community volunteers, working on concerns such as: food cooperatives, daycare centres, community health and the environment, self-help groups, and church organizations.

Claiming Large, Small Animal Roots In Ecuador by SARAH CAREY Lili Sotomayor at her family's dairy farm. M ike Whittington and Lili Sotomayor, both D.V.M.s from the Class of '91, are experiencing partnership - personal and professional - in a way they never have before. When they picked up stakes and moved to Quito, Ecuador, Whittington and Sotomayor- small animal and dairy veterinarians, respectively - were working in central Washington and unexcited about their lives. Then Lili's family, which owns a dairy farm in Quito, offered her the opportunity to become a partner in the business. "This was an opportunity not easy to come by in the states," Mike said. "Our jobs at the time were not what we wanted for the long term, and we didn't have any definite work goals in the near future. So we decided to take a chance." Their move in October 1997 enabled Lili to shift from caring for sick cows to actually owning a business and consulting in milk quality and milking machine operation. It also enabled Mike and Lili to jointly open a small animal practice in Quito, where Mike is the sole practitioner. "I spent 13 months finishing all the official paperwork," he said, describing his new practice as having 80 percent dogs with cats making up the other 20 percent of his clientele.
