Résumé anglais |
Quito, the capital of Equador, is faced with numerous challenges in responding to the strong demographic growth which has characterized the last three decades. As a result of reforms, the municipality now has competent political actors and appropriate management tools. The spatial extension of the city and the outward spread of metropolitan growth processes have been accompanied by road improvements, the rehabilitation of the historic centre and the emergence of secondary centres. However, political and economic crises as well as recent natural catastrophes (volcanic eruptions and floods) have slowed down progress in improving living conditions for the 1 200 000 inhabitants.
