A fierce protest in Mexico City railing against gentrification and mass tourism was fueled by government failures and active promotion to attract digital nomads, according to experts, who said tension had been mounting for years. The criticism comes after Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum alleged that Friday's protest was marked by xenophobia, reviving a debate over an influx of Americans in the city....

Thirteen indigenous leaders from Ecuador demanded on Monday to have a say in the National Assembly’s Economic Development Commission debate over President Daniel Noboa’s proposed "Law for Strengthening Protected Areas."

In a statement issued by Amazon Frontlines, representatives from Siekopai, Siona, Kichwa, Achuar, and other groups emphasized that the legislation affects lands vital for their cultural and physical survival....

There are moments in every expat’s life when you find yourself squinting at the screen of some Ecuadorian TV channel, wondering if the dubbed episode of NCIS: Buenos Aires is really the cultural enrichment you hoped for. Perhaps you just want to hear the shipping forecast again. Or catch up on Happy Valley without subtitles that insist that British people say things like “¡Arriba, chavales!”...

By Miriam Drake, M.Ed., N.C.C., C.H.t. When my husband and I moved to Cuenca, Ecuador in 2011, our plan was to create a new, fun, life adventure together. Medical emergencies, incapacitation, and end of life never even entered our minds. In other words, we were completely unprepared when all of these happened to us. If you are living in Cuenca, or considering a move to our fair town, consider taking the seminar I have created, “Expat Medical Emergency Preparation”....

China has strongly objected to recent remarks by “Indian officials” on the Dalai Lama’s succession, with its ambassador to India, Xu Feihong, asserting on X that the reincarnation of the Tibetan spiritual leader is “entirely an internal affair of China” and warning that “no interference by any external forces will be allowed.” “It has been noted that some Indian officials recently made remarks regarding the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama,” the ambassador Xu said....

By Jonathan Mason It is a curious thing, and not without irony, that in the great republic which so proudly proclaims the rights of man, the right to belong has become something contingent, paper-thin, and bureaucratically brittle. Citizenship in the United States is, for millions, not a natural condition of being but a chain of paperwork stretching across continents and decades — a chain which, if broken at any link, might see entire families slip through the floorboards of legality....

By Emily Rekstis “I’ve decided to get tested for Huntington’s disease,” my sister Lindsey said one gray January afternoon in New York while we were getting our nails done. She asked to spend some one-on-one time together while she and her boyfriend were in town, which I found odd. Lindsey and I talk on the phone often and had already spoken three times that week....

By Carlos Vega Money laundering in Ecuador has evolved beyond being simply a security threat — it's now a parallel economy that moves billions of dollars outside of state oversight. According to economist and actuary Juan Sebastián Naranjo, the scale of this illicit economy could exceed 6% of Ecuador’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), amounting to over $6 billion annually. “A mismatch has been detected between the income declared to the Internal Revenue Service (SRI) and actual banking activity....
