The Waorani, the most numerous indigenous people in the Yasuni National Park, considered the heart of the Ecuadorian Amazon, see the possible beginning of the end of oil extraction in their territories with the national consultation that will be held to cease the extraction of crude oil from Block 43- ITT, one of the most important deposits in the country. Many members of this indigenous people have high hopes in the plebiscite that will be voted on 20 August 2023, coinciding with the country's extraordinary general elections. EPA/Ivan Izurieta
