Afro-Ecuadorian Development Corporation CODAE

The Afro-Ecuadorian Development Corporation (Span. CODAE), is a non-profit, collegial, public sector entity in which the civil community of the Afro-Ecuadorian sector participates. The objective of this tool is to promote an integrated, sustainable development with identity, strengthening the organization of the Afro-Ecuadorian People, and seeking the eradication of racism and racial discrimination. In the course of its activities, for example, during the constitutional debates of 2008, CODAE presented its members with the constitutional project in order that they have full knowledge of their rights as stipulated in the Constitution.
