How we cover Ecuador
We focus on facts and practical context. When the government makes a move, we explain how it affects people and markets. If a protest happens, we report who’s involved, why they’re protesting, and what comes next. For economic stories we highlight numbers you can use—exports, inflation trends, or major foreign investments. For travel pieces we give plain advice: what to know about altitude in Quito, permit rules for the Galápagos, and basic safety tips for visitors.
Want quick context? Look for our short explainers that answer one question fast—like "Why does oil matter to Ecuador's budget?" or "What the latest turnout means for the next election." Those are the posts to read when you need a quick update.
