| Shrnutí: | Ecuadorian society currently faces various social problems. Among them, the country has the highest number of homicides in South America, one of the highest in the world—and an alarming increase in forced emigration. This reality impacts collective well-being and demands concrete responses from those of us who practice psychology for, from, and about Ecuador. In this collective article—posed from our diverse identities, epistemologies, and positions—we build a relative consensus on our vision for Ecuadorian psychology. We propose the urgency of transforming it, strengthening social relevance; scientific relevance; research; observance and impact on public policy; academic leadership; professional associations; undergraduate and graduate training; engagement with local communities; interculturality; and the competent and critical articulation of local and international knowledge. |
