Podcasts about Quito

En este episodio muy especial de Songmess nuestra serie ecuatoriana continúa con una alucinante conversación junto a la compositora, cantante, educadora y poeta Kichwa, Tamya Morán. La comunidad indígena, y en particular la comunidad Kichwa, es sumamente visible en Ecuador, donde se desempeñan en gran parte en ámbitos agricultores y artísticos. Nuestra entrevista con Tamya abarca los retos de ser una mujer indígena desenvolviéndose en el mundo cultural occidental, la importancia de mantener costumbres ancestrales vivas y en evolución, cuestionamientos hacia su propia comunidad, como la vestimenta tradicional puede ser un arma de resistencia, y mucha música. Este fue el primer episodio que grabamos en Quito y las poderosas palabras de Tamya resonaron con nosotros por todo el resto del viaje. Episodio imperdible!

El Gran Musical - Letty Andrade, Finaliza El Plazo Para La Matriculación Vehicular En Quito

In some locales, the period between Christmas and the New Year is known as the Wild Nights, where mischief reigns in the darkest days of the northern hemisphere. We're digging into this theme for our last show of 2022, in a chat with photographer and producer of this very podcast, Jill Waterman, who has been documenting New Year's Eve traditions and exploits around the globe for the past 38 years. We first spoke with Jill about this project in the two-part show Legacy and Commitment in January 2022. Since she's now a full-fledged member of the podcast team, we thought we'd investigate some of her more memorable experiences a bit further. Jill is still shooting this series primarily with film, so our conversation ranges from the whys and wherefores of making that choice, to how the growth of the Internet became an essential research tool in the lead up to the Millennium and beyond. We also shed light on the elusive Austrian Perchten and Bulgarian Kukeri, and discuss parading Philadelphia Mummers, Bahamian Junkanoo figures, and Cape Town, South Africa's legendary Minstrel Parade. To learn about the most rewarding aspect of Jill's project and find out where she'll be ringing in New Year's Eve 2023, pull up a seat, pop some bubbly and listen in!

Her personal work is centered in long-term photo projects, such as the ongoing New Year's Eve Project and other aspects of her focus on night photography. Her photographs have been exhibited internationally and widely featured in press and media. Highlights include a 1997 arts documentary for Deutsche Welle TV in Berlin, Germany; a 2003 Today Show interview with Katie Couric; and a 2015 documentary for the web TV show Culture Connect. Waterman's first book, the technical volume Night and Low Light Photography, was released by Amphoto books in August 2008.

El Gran Musical - Fernando Carrión, Incongruencias En El Metro De Quito

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Announcing Vida Plena: the first Latin American organization incubated by Charity Entrepreneurship, published by Joy Bittner on December 26, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Vida Plena (meaning ‘a flourishing life' in Spanish) is a new nonprofit organization based in Quito, Ecuador. Our mission is to build strong mental health in low-income and refugee communities, who otherwise would have no access to care. We provide evidence-based depression treatment which is highly cost-effective and scalable. In this post, we: Share how we got started Make the case for why you should care about mental health Demonstrate the evidence base for the solution we are using Hope to make you really excited about Vida Plena's goals and upcoming plans We are proud to highlight that Vida Plena completed the 2022 Charity Entrepreneurship (CE) Incubator program, making it the first CE-incubated organization to operate in Latin America. We (myself, Joy Bittner and my co-founder, Anita Kaslin) are exceptionally grateful for their on-going support and for the network of seed funders who are making this work possible. We are also excited to contribute to the EA community locally, as Vida Plena is one of the very first EA-aligned organizations implementing within Latin America. For the very effective altruist, a TLDR summary: The problem: The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 5% of people in Latin America have depression, however, a lack of prioritization means that more than 3 out of 4 people in Latin America go untreated. Ecuador, in particular, has some of the highest rates of depression in the region: causing 8.3% of the total years lived with disability (YLD). The solution: Vida Plena's intervention is based on an evidence-based therapy which is recommended by the WHO as a first-line treatment for depression in low-income settings (WHO, 2020). This program is highly cost-effective as it is delivered by non-specialist community members, which a systematic review of 27 studies found that non-specialists can effectively administer therapy. How you can know this will be impactful: We are replicating a proven program model. The nonprofit organization StrongMinds, operating in Uganda, has treated 150,000 people using the same model of therapy and 85% of people in their program saw significant reductions in their depression. This success has led StrongMinds to be recommended by Founders Pledge (Halstead, 2019) and is the Happier Lives Institute's top recommendation (HLI, 2022). Despite an extensive body of evidence demonstrating the effectiveness and impact, Vida Plena is the first to introduce this model to Latin America. Current status: we have certified 10 local community facilitators and are currently running a pilot program with 10 support groups. We're looking forward to sharing the results of the pilot early 2023, but we estimate when fully optional, it will cost $17 to improve a recipient's wellbeing by one wellbeing-adjusted life year (WELLBY). For a comparison, this is 8 times more cost-effective than GiveDirectly (see our full predictive CEA here). How you can help: Stay in touch and spread the word: generous introductions and people sharing time-sensitive information have made all this possible. sign-up to stay in touch here so we can send you news about what's happening and ways you can help Support us financially: we plan to treat almost 3,000 people in 2023, but have yet to secure the full funding to do so. We would be so grateful if you decide to donate or email us at joy@vidaplena.global Section 1: How Vida Plena got started True story - I started Vida Plena because I saw a Facebook post. Specifically, I saw a post about a new type of mental health program being run by local ‘grandmas' in Africa. And the more I read through the multiple published studies demonstr...

Oceania is a vast sea of islands, large scale political struggles and immensely significant historical phenomena. Pasifika Black: Oceania, Anti-Colonialism, and the African World (NYU Press, 2022) is a compelling history of understudied anti-colonial movements in this region, exploring how indigenous Oceanic activists intentionally forged international connections with the African world in their fights for liberation. Drawing from research conducted across Fiji, Australia, Vanuatu, Papua New Guinea, Britain, and the United States, Quito Swan shows how liberation struggles in Oceania actively engaged Black internationalism in their diverse battles against colonial rule. Pasifika Black features as its protagonists Oceania's many playwrights, organizers, religious leaders, scholars, Black Power advocates, musicians, environmental justice activists, feminists, and revolutionaries who carried the banners of Black liberation across the globe. It puts artists like Aboriginal poet Oodgeroo Noonuccal and her 1976 call for a Black Pacific into an extended conversation with Nigeria's Wole Soyinka, the Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific's Amelia Rokotuivuna, Samoa's Albert Wendt, African American anthropologist Angela Gilliam, the NAACP's Roy Wilkins, West Papua's Ben Tanggahma, New Caledonia's Déwé Gorodey, and Polynesian Panther Will 'Ilolahia. In so doing, Swan displays the links Oceanic activists consciously and painstakingly formed in order to connect Black metropoles across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. In a world grappling with the global significance of Black Lives Matter and state-sanctioned violence against Black and Brown bodies, Pasifika Black is a both triumphant history and tragic reminder of the ongoing quests for decolonization in Oceania, the African world, and the Global South.

Desde hace 10 meses Ecuador asegura tener “prácticamente cerrado” un acuerdo de libre comercio con China. Lograr un tratado similar y comprometer a los Estados Unidos a pagar su parte en la lucha contra el narcotráfico, fueron los temas por los que viajó este lunes el presidente ecuatoriano Guillermo Lasso a Washington. A simple vista puede ser complejo negociar con China y Estados Unidos al mismo tiempo, dada la rivalidad de las dos potencias. Este lunes los presidentes de Estados Unidos y Ecuador, Joe Biden y Guillermo Lasso, se reunieron en la Casa Blanca para hablar de "seguridad y asociación económica" bilateral.  La lucha contra el crimen relacionado con el narcotráfico se ha saldado con cientos de muertos y llevó en noviembre a declarar el estado de excepción en parte del territorio nacional. Por ello, una de las peticiones de Ecuador fue que los Estados Unidos comparta el costo de la lucha contra el narcotráfico. Y mientras con este país mantiene negociaciones, Ecuador asegura tener acuerdos cerrados con China.  “Esto podría ser contradictorio", considera Marcos Romero, economista y doctor en relaciones internacionales de la Universidad Andina Simón Bolivar de Quito. “Me parece que eso hace relación al mimo pragmatismo que [Ecuador] mantuvo en el tema relacionado con las vacunas, pues recibió cantidades masivas de vacunas de China y también de los Estados Unidos. Compro también muchísimas vacunas de ambos lados”. Además, una de las prioridades de la visita de Lasso fue buscar apoyo económico para evitar los crímenes vinculados a los narcotraficantes que pelean por el control del tráfico de droga en las calles, algunos desde las cárceles. De acuerdo con el presidente ecuatoriano, Estados Unidos tiene que pagar su factura, pues se trata de un “crimen organizado transnacional”. "Creo yo que es justo compartir la factura", dijo el mandatario a periodistas en el puerto de Guayaquil, poco antes de partir a Washington. "Si bien es cierto (que) la confrontación, la batalla se realiza aquí, en el Ecuador, los beneficiarios no son solo los jóvenes y niños ecuatorianos sino también jóvenes y niños de Estados Unidos", añadió. “Ecuador indudablemente ha ganado importancia como un centro de tránsito de la droga, y como espacio de lavado también. En consecuencia, la política restrictiva que sigue prevaleciendo en los Estados Unidos se quiere reforzar [en] Ecuador, y bajo un alineamiento directo a las estrategias norteamericanas”, sostiene el académico ecuatoriano Marcos Romero. Para lograr dicho objetivo, Ecuador calcula que necesita unos 5 mil millones de dólares. No obstante, en el comunicado emitido por la Casa Blanca no hay ningún rastro de cifras multimillonarias para la lucha contra el crimen organizado transnacional: Biden se comprometió a desembolsar 13,5 millones de dólares para préstamos de microfinanzas, incluidas empresas dirigidas por mujeres, cinco millones contra la desnutrición infantil y otros 20 millones para ayudar a reducir las emisiones de carbono.

In so doing, Swan displays the links Oceanic activists consciously and painstakingly formed in order to connect Black metropoles across the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. In a world grappling with the global significance of Black Lives Matter and state-sanctioned violence against Black and Brown bodies, Pasifika Black is a both triumphant history and tragic reminder of the ongoing quests for decolonization in Oceania, the African world, and the Global South.

Desde hace 10 meses Ecuador asegura tener “prácticamente cerrado” un acuerdo de libre comercio con China. Lograr un tratado similar y comprometer a los Estados Unidos a pagar su parte en la lucha contra el narcotráfico, fueron los temas por los que viajó este lunes el presidente ecuatoriano Guillermo Lasso a Washington. A simple vista puede ser complejo negociar con China y Estados Unidos al mismo tiempo, dada la rivalidad de las dos potencias. Este lunes los presidentes de Estados Unidos y Ecuador, Joe Biden y Guillermo Lasso, se reunieron en la Casa Blanca para hablar de "seguridad y asociación económica" bilateral.  La lucha contra el crimen relacionado con el narcotráfico se ha saldado con cientos de muertos y llevó en noviembre a declarar el estado de excepción en parte del territorio nacional. Por ello, una de las peticiones de Ecuador fue que los Estados Unidos comparta el costo de la lucha contra el narcotráfico. Y mientras con este país mantiene negociaciones, Ecuador asegura tener acuerdos cerrados con China.  “Esto podría ser contradictorio", considera Marcos Romero, economista y doctor en relaciones internacionales de la Universidad Andina Simón Bolivar de Quito. “Me parece que eso hace relación al mimo pragmatismo que [Ecuador] mantuvo en el tema relacionado con las vacunas, pues recibió cantidades masivas de vacunas de China y también de los Estados Unidos. Compro también muchísimas vacunas de ambos lados”. Además, una de las prioridades de la visita de Lasso fue buscar apoyo económico para evitar los crímenes vinculados a los narcotraficantes que pelean por el control del tráfico de droga en las calles, algunos desde las cárceles. De acuerdo con el presidente ecuatoriano, Estados Unidos tiene que pagar su factura, pues se trata de un “crimen organizado transnacional”. "Creo yo que es justo compartir la factura", dijo el mandatario a periodistas en el puerto de Guayaquil, poco antes de partir a Washington. "Si bien es cierto (que) la confrontación, la batalla se realiza aquí, en el Ecuador, los beneficiarios no son solo los jóvenes y niños ecuatorianos sino también jóvenes y niños de Estados Unidos", añadió. “Ecuador indudablemente ha ganado importancia como un centro de tránsito de la droga, y como espacio de lavado también. En consecuencia, la política restrictiva que sigue prevaleciendo en los Estados Unidos se quiere reforzar [en] Ecuador, y bajo un alineamiento directo a las estrategias norteamericanas”, sostiene el académico ecuatoriano Marcos Romero. Para lograr dicho objetivo, Ecuador calcula que necesita unos 5 mil millones de dólares. No obstante, en el comunicado emitido por la Casa Blanca no hay ningún rastro de cifras multimillonarias para la lucha contra el crimen organizado transnacional: Biden se comprometió a desembolsar 13,5 millones de dólares para préstamos de microfinanzas, incluidas empresas dirigidas por mujeres, cinco millones contra la desnutrición infantil y otros 20 millones para ayudar a reducir las emisiones de carbono.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) Radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy in a conversation with Steve H. Hanke, a top economist and leading monetarist. Dr. Steve Hanke provides an analysis of midterm elections, an update on America's economy, and raises concerns about the prolonged Ukraine - Russia conflict as the West's economic sanctions fail to bring an end to the war on the European continent. Dr. Hanke has been a strong critic of corruption in Ukraine and recent reports that he highlights raise red flags that US weapons are making its way to the black market. On America's Roundtable, principled leaders have called for greater oversight on how US taxpayer aid is being used in Ukraine and within NATO's Eastern European countries mired in corruption. Professor Hanke also discusses the Misery Index, and "why it is essential for policy-makers to have a read of their constituents' well-being, as viewed through the lens of economic statistics." Report: Hanke's 2021 Misery Index: Who's Miserable and Who's Happy? (https://www.nationalreview.com/2022/03/hankes-2021-misery-index-whos-miserable-and-whos-happy/) Hanke's Annual Misery Index (HAMI). What is it — and how should we conceive of man's well-being? The human condition lies on a vast spectrum between “miserable” and “happy.” In the economic sphere, misery tends to flow from high inflation, steep borrowing costs, and unemployment. The surefire way to mitigate that misery is through economic growth. Comparing countries' metrics can tell us a lot about where in the world people are sad or happy. HAMI gives us the answers. My version of the misery index is the sum of the year-end unemployment, inflation, and bank-lending rates, minus the annual percentage change in real GDP per capita. Higher readings on the first three elements are “bad” and make people more miserable. These “bads” are offset by a “good” (real GDP per capita growth), which is subtracted from the sum of the bads to yield a HAMI score. Bio: Dr. Steve H. Hanke Steve H. Hanke is a professor of applied economics and founder and codirector of the Institute for Applied Economics, Global Health, and the Study of Business Enterprise at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. Dr. Steve Hanke served as special counselor to the Center for Financial Stability in New York. Hanke is also a contributing editor at Central Banking in London and a contributor at National Review. In addition, Hanke is a member of the Charter Council of the Society for Economic Measurement and of the Euromoney Country Risk's Experts Panel.

Hanke served as a state counselor to both the Republic of Lithuania in 1994–96 and the Republic of Montenegro in 1999–2003. He was also an adviser to the presidents of Bulgaria in 1997–2002, Venezuela in 1995–96, and Indonesia in 1998. He played an important role in establishing new currency regimes in Argentina, Estonia, Bulgaria, Bosnia‐​Herzegovina, Ecuador, Lithuania, and Montenegro.

After a week off for the Thanksgiving holiday, we are back and ready to talk about some Orlando City news. We would also be happy to talk about some Orlando Pride news, but there hasn't been much of that. So, we've got some moves by the club to discuss this week. We start with the addition of midfielder Felipe Martins, who was most recently with Austin FC and has had success elsewhere in his MLS career — particularly with the New York Red Bulls. We opine on the move overall, where Martins fits in with the Lions, and how the midfield is shaping up. Speaking of the midfield, Orlando City re-signed captain Mauricio Pereyra to a new two-year contract and he's no longer occupying a Designated Player slot, so that's a bonus. Mauri has been a good player for the club and it'll be good to have him around for a couple more years and it'll be even better if he's got a top-notch new DP to feed the ball to in 2023 and 2024. There was also a departure, albeit an expected one and not one that affects the roster as it stood at the end of the season. Alexander Alvarado's loan to LDU de Quito is now permanent and the winger is no longer on Orlando City's books. We wish Alexander the best of luck in Ecuador. The World Cup group stage is wrapping up and the United States Men's National Team is moving on into the Round of 16! We discuss the young Yanks' World Cup performances so far. It's encouraging to see a young team doing well on the big stage and although we'd obviously love to see the USMNT go as far as possible, we're more excited about the prospect of these guys being in their prime when the event is hosted in North America in 2026. This week's mailbag asked us who our favorite USMNT player is and what Orlando City needs to do this off-season. If there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the next show, just ask by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. Programming Note: We are in our monthly off-season schedule for recording new episodes, but if the news cycle warrants it, we will of course put out new shows more frequently, as needed. In other words, we might be back in a week or a month. Stay safe and enjoy the show! Here's how No. 318 went down: 0:15 - Orlando City's off-season is in full swing and the team has been making moves. We talked about those that have been made and those still yet to come. 19:53 - The USMNT is through the group without having conceded from open play and without having tasted defeat. Those are good things, but this team still has another gear and we hope the Yanks can find it. 51:43 - Mailbagbox time! USMNT favorites and Orlando City's needs. Learn more about your ad choices.
