Esmeraldas is known for its coastal resources, significant Afro-Ecuadorian population, and abundant natural wealth. Despite this, its environmental activism has received limited academic attention. This research seeks to address this gap by examining how Afro-communities in Esmeraldas mobilize in response to environmental challenges.Utilizing thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews and review of secondary sources, the study integrates local experiences with theoretical frameworks. Findings highlight inclusive methodologies that honor local knowledge, cultural practices, and collective ancestral memory, grounding Afro identity and mobilization. Interviews underscore participatory research activism's role as a bridge between Afro-communities and academia, while emphasizing the state's role in empowering rural Esmeraldas communities. In conclusion, Afro-communities in Esmeraldas actively engage in environmental mobilization, utilizing cultural practices, direct action, and political advocacy to combat environmental degradation and assert their rights. Afro identity serves as both resilience and strategic direction for activism, advocating for inclusive and equitable approaches to environmental justice that empower local actors and respect cultural heritage.
