Illegal Mining in Ecuador: the Pause in the Napo and the Legacy of Inés Manzano

Summary by expreso.ec
Created: 02.05.2026 00:15 Updated: 02.05.2026 00:15 On April 26, the digital media Environmental log reported that activists from Napo Ama la Vida sailed the Napo River and did not find illegal mining activity. The tweet is cautious: “for now.” Considering that illegal mining has operated with impunity over the past few years – and, in the specific case of Napo, it has destroyed much of the province – that information is decision-making.
