Quito, the turning point: the New Inhabitants' Agenda vs the New Urban Agenda

Inauguración del Foro Social de Resistencia Popular a Habitat III, QUITO, ECUADOR (16 Octubre 2016) We waited a year to understand what really happened in Quito in October 2016 and the social and political impact it had. In Quito there was no epic battle, and there were no street confrontations between opposing visions for the future of the world. There were a few thwarted attempts to repress the People's Social Forum in Resistance to Habitat III, during the opening of the International Tribunal on Evictions in Guayaquil and the closing event in Quito, but the very difficult debate on policies continued from a distance.
