Although the beginning a new school year is traditionally a time of renewed expectations, Ecuador education experts say that in recent years it is a reminder of a problem without a solution. The number of students is dropping – and rapidly -- due to declining birthrates. More than 1.7 million public and private school students return to class this week in the Sierra and Amazonia regions of the country....

Mist drapes the ridgelines of southern Ecuador, then slides into ravines where orchids bead with rain. Between two Andean spines, Podocarpus National Park straddles Loja’s highlands and the Amazonian foothills of Zamora Chinchipe — a living water tower whose rare life and ancient conifers persist amid rivers, waterfalls, and rising threats. Set like a green saddle between the eastern ranges of the Andes, Podocarpus is defined by altitude and moisture....

Following the deaths of four inmates Friday at the Turi prison, Cuenca Mayor Cristian Zamora is asking the government to put the armed forces back in control of the prison. “While the soldiers were assigned there, we had very few incidences of violence,” he said. “Today, we see what happens when management is returned to prison staff.” On August 10, the military high command ended the 18-month assignment of soldiers at seven prisons, including Turi....

By Krysta Fauria At 77 years old, Geoffrey Hinton has a new calling in life. Like a modern-day prophet, the Nobel Prize winner is raising alarms about the dangers of uncontrolled and unregulated artificial intelligence. Frequently dubbed the “Godfather of AI,” Hinton is known for his pioneering work on deep learning and neural networks which helped lay the foundation for the AI technology often used today....

By Steve Fink For more than a century, each generation has lived longer than the one before. Parents routinely outlived their parents, and children expected birthdays their grandparents never reached. But new research suggests this remarkable streak of rising lifespans may be running out of steam. A study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that people born between 1939 and 2000 are on track to experience much slower gains in life expectancy compared to earlier generations....

A new law that imposes additional controls on non-government organizations will be challenged in the Constitutional Court. Opponents of the Law of Foundations, which passed the National Assembly Tuesday by a single vote, claim it violates the rights of civil society organizations involved in community projects. “This is another power grab by the Noboa government and we feel confident that the court will see it as unconstitutional,” said César Ricaurte, director of Fundamedios, a non-profit media support organization....

By Alex Chepstow-Lusty Many tropical glaciers in the Andes are expected to disappear in the next few decades. Their meltwater sustains millions of people, feeding crops in the dry season, supplying Peru's capital Lima and other big cities, and even boosting the Amazon River. As glaciers vanish, floods and droughts are becoming more extreme. But my new research with colleagues suggests solutions may lie in environmental knowledge that the Incas and their predecessors developed centuries ago....
