THE COMMUNITIES
FEDICE partners with marginalized indigenous and rural communities throughout Ecuador’s famed Avenue of Volcanoes on transformative projects designed to end cyclical and historical poverty and injustice. We currently have 19 partner communities in the provinces of Carchi, Imbabura, Cotopaxi, and Esmeraldas.
IMBABURA
The Province of Imbabura is located in the north of the country. Its administrative capital is the city of Ibarra . It is bordered to the north by Carchi , to the south by Pichincha , to the west by Esmeraldas and to the east by Sucumbíos .
It has a very unique importance for the history of northern Ecuador, as it is a midpoint between the coast and the Amazon. Since ancient times it has been a meeting place for cultures, merchants and events with religious significance.
