EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Project Paper Supplement for Uie National Shelter Delivery System Program (518-HG-007) responds directly to the issues and concerns raised by AID/W at the September, 1988 DAEC review of the Mission's request to amend the Program to finance an expanded infrastructure component. The Mission is not seeking HG authority beyond the level of $35 million approved in FY 88. The $10 million required to finance the infrastructure activity will be obtained by a reduction of $5 million in HG authority previously allocated to finance other Program components. On the basis of this revised PP Supplement, USAID/Ecuador iu requesting LAC approval to amend the Program Implementatin Agreement: - to reflect the increase of $5 million in HG funding that was authorized in September, 1988 - to authorize the use of HG advances by the Ecuadorian Development Bank (BEDE) to provide construction financing for municipal infrastructure projects; and, - to expand the definition of eligible beneficiaries to include commurities in which no less than 75% of the residents have incomes below the median. Once signed, the amendment will enable the GOE to seek reimbursement for eligible infrastructure expenditures, and to negotiate the corresponding $10 million HG loan as and when required, bringing total HG loans to $20 million. No further borrowing on the remaining $15 million in HG authority will be approved until there is significant, measurable progress toward use of market interest rates in the operation of the FFH. In addition, following AID/W review of this PPS, the Mission will amend the Program technical assistance component to: - authorize an increase of $500,000 in grant funding for a total of $1,500,000 to fund technical assistance and training in support of the broader policy reform and the institutional strengthening agendas of the project, and - extend the Project Grant Agreement PACD, from 8/31/89 to 12/31/91, in order to meet the objectives of the TA 1ian. A. Background The original design of HG-007 included a pilot urban upgrading component. The focus and the emphasis of the original Project Paper clearly was on the production and sale of new shelter by the private sector and on home improvement lending. Investments in infrastructure to upgrade existing settlements, while contemplated in that Project Paper, are mentioned briefly and not treated in any detail (see, for example, pages 35 and 48). Based on continuing studies of the shelter sector in Ecuador, the Mission has come to realize that upgrading deserves greater emphasis in the implementation of a national shelter delivery system in Ecuador. -2- There is both an urgent need and a real opportunity to support the self-help efforts of poor urban families to improve their living conditions in the growing number of spontaneous settlements on the periphery of cities in Ecuador by funding residential infrastructure projects in those municipalities willing to adopt cost recovery measures and to undertake other reforms to strengthen the financing and delivery of such services. A national shelter delivery system, such as that contemplated in HG-007, must respond to the need and to the opportunity. In September, 1988, The Mission requested $10 million in additional Housing Guaranty authority earmarked to finance the infrastructure investments of the supplemental project. At that time LAC authorized $5 million and asked the Mission for additional information on the Program status and on the design of the supplemental project. In preparing this response to the Bureau's concerns, the Mission has decided not to seek authorization of the additional $5 million to complete funding of the supplemental project, as requested in September, 1988. The decision is not based on a change in the projections of demand for Program resources. Rather, it reflects a more conservative approach to the management of those resources. Current estimates still show a need for over $30 million in HG financing for FFH discount of home improvement and new housing loans.

Si traggono bilanci, cose fatte e non fatte, si danno indirizzi, consigli, esortazioni. Si mettono a fuoco i problemi nella nostra Italia, i problemi dell’Europa e quelli del mondo intero. Si esortano i partiti politici a pensare agli Italiani e non alle loro sedie, al loro potere. Si spinge per un dialogo serio, costruttivo, finalizzato al benessere di tutti e non solo a quello della loro bottega. Sono tutte belle parole, buoni intenti, buoni propositi che vengono disattesi, dimenticati un minuto dopo.

Constant consumption of resources exerts pressure on the environment not only due to its exploitation, but also because once processed, the resources produce waste, emissions or effluents. Cities are responsible for more than three quarters of the emissions of greenhouse gases. It is anticipated that the urban population will increase by up to 80% by the mid-21st century, which will make the current energy model unsustainable, as it is based on the intensive use of fossil resources. A change in urban planning is required to meet the energy requirements of cities. Several studies mention that renewable energy must be used in cities, but they do not identify the resources and technologies that can be used to promote circular urban metabolism. A review of the literature establishes that there are eleven renewable technologies with different degrees of maturity that could reduce the import of energy resources, which would contribute to changing the metabolic linear model into a circular model.

In this paper, the impact of photovoltaic energy in the total urban energy mix is estimated using a series of indicators that consider the economic, environmental and social dimensions. These indicators have been previously applied at the country level; the main contribution of this research is applying them at the urban level to the city of Cuenca, Ecuador. Cuenca is close to the equatorial line and at a high altitude, enabling this area to reach the maximum self-supply index because of the high irradiation levels and reduced demand. The solar potential was estimated using a simple methodology that applies several indexes that were proven reliable in a local context considering this particular sun path. The results demonstrate that the solar potential can meet the electric power demand of this city, and only the indicator related to employment is positive and substantially affected.

    Breaking the Resource Curse A Case Study of Smallholder Empowerment and Environmental Stewardship in Chone, Ecuador David S. Emmerman April, 2011 Submitted to the Department of Environmental Studies of Amherst College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts with honors. Faculty Advisor: Edward Melillo Faculty Readers: Manuela Picq Rick López 2 Acknowledgements Researching and writing this thesis was the high point of my undergraduate studies. There are more people to thank for their help and support than I can name here, but I will do my best. I will never be able to repay Glenda, Don Freddy, Sofia and Freddy Barón García Muguerza for their hospitality, generosity and warmth during my stay in Chone. That the life they have built together is the focus of this thesis demonstrates the impact they had on me. I am sincerely grateful to my advisor, Professor Edward Melillo, for his guidance throughout this project. From the beginning, Ted helped me frame my ideas and tighten my writing in a way that no one else was able to. His perspective on the global environmental struggle is the broadest of anyone I have met. I was extremely fortunate to take his class on Global Environmental History of the 20th Century the first semester he taught it at Amherst College, as it was our discussions in that class that planted in my mind many of the seeds that grew into this thesis. I would also like to thank my readers, Professor Manuela Picq and Professor Rick López for their constructive critiques.
