The creation of a technical working group is part of the peace agreement signed on June 30 to end the 18-day strike.
The president of the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities (CONAIE), Leonidas Iza, said on behalf of the indigenous community he expects "this process to yield results in the issues of the national agenda, which are for the benefit of the majority of families in the country."
To implement the points agreed upon in last week's dialogues, Ecuador's government and the indigenous movement took part Thursday in the first meeting of the technical working group.
According to the Ministry of Government, "in the facilities of the Ecuadorian Episcopal Conference, Minister Francisco Jimenez leads the first technical table," which sets the agenda for the dialogues during the 90 days established in the agreement.
On June 30, CONAIE and the government signed a peace agreement to end the 18-day strike. This agreement sets a 90-day deadline for the implementation of the ten points.
