Title: Large-Scale Mining in Ecuador and Human Rights Abuses: The Case of Corriente Resource Inc. - Executive Summary

Summary: Over the past decade, a series of social conflicts has arisen in Ecuador, as a result of the growing presence of actors seeking to develop large-scale mining in the country. These mining endeavors have been encouraged by legislative and economic measures put in place by national governments and international organizations. Mining companies’ activities have led to numerous episodes of human rights abuses, and have given rise to an important national debate on the promotion of large-scale mining in Ecuador.
