Documentary abstract — original language

Ecuador is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world. Moreover, and based on the inclusion of the paradigm of Buen Vivir in the 2008 Constitution, this South American nation was the first country in the world to provide constitutional protection to its natural environment by considering Nature as a subject of rights. In that sense, it is interesting to question what has been the impact of the environmental governance under the Buen Vivir paradigm on the evolution of deforestation in the Provinces of Tungurahua and Pastaza in the period 2008-2017. Based on statistical data collected in the field research and during the interviews with key actors dealing with environmental matters on the ground, it is possible to assert the importance of local environmental governance in forest protection, as well as to reflect on the existence of a struggle of models associated with the praxis of the relationship between Buen Vivir with Nature: forest conservation vs extractivism. El Ecuador es uno de los países más biodiversos del mundo. Asimismo, y en función de la inclusión del paradigma del Buen Vivir en la Constitución de 2008, esta nación sudamericana fue el primer país en consagrar la protección constitucional a su medio ambiente natural al considerar a la Naturaleza como sujeto de derechos. En ese sentido, resulta interesante cuestionarse cuál ha sido el impacto de la gobernanza ambiental de Buen Vivir en la evolución de la deforestación en las provincias de Tungurahua y Pastaza en el período 2008-2017. A partir de datos estadísticos recabados en la investigación de campo y de entrevistas a actores clave de la temática en estudio, se logra evidenciar la importancia de la gobernanza ambiental a nivel local para una mayor eficacia de la protección forestal, así como reflexionar acerca de la existencia de una pugna de modelos asociados a la praxis de la relación del Buen Vivir con la Naturaleza: conservacionismo versus extractivismo.
