National Social Dialogue
The National Social Dialogue was stipulated by an executive decree that assigned its implementation to the Vice Presidency of the Republic and the National Secretariat of Policy Management. The purpose of this dialogue was to promote transparency and inclusion in the design of public policies. To this end, 23 dialogue processes -through working tables- were organized, covering more than 180 topics through 351 events. All the events were attended by representatives of civil society, entrepreneurs, workers, peasants, farmers, and public officials. A total of 25,112 people participated and more than 4,284 proposals were received. Given the positive response to this dialogue, the government implemented a second phase known as the Ecuador 2030 National Agreement with the objective of refining, executing and implementing the proposals collected.
