Extractions: Working Group on Indigenous Populations in Genéve, Switzerland on August 3, 1989. Madam Chairperson, fellow representatives and friends in the struggles of indigenous peoples rights, first, I convey from Africa the message of unity and resolute determination to consolidate the strive for our common course. I have learnt that this is the first time that representatives of any community in Africa have been able to attend this very important forum. This is a historic moment for us. We are only two in attendance, both from Tanzania, of the Haxza and Maasai communities. I take this opportunity to express our very profound appreciation of the generosity of the United Nations Voluntary Fund and the NGO Human Rights Fund for Indigenous Peoples, which have helped to sponsor our trip to Geneva. We look forward to the future when more delegates from Africa will be able to make use of this valuable forum. Also would you please accept my wish for your attention and time to introduce our plight and to provide you with some basic information about the situation in Africa, which has not been aired in this forum before. The environment for human rights in Africa is severely polluted by the ramifications of colonialism and neo-colonial social and economic relationships in which we are compelled to pursue our development and sovereignty in a global system replete with injustices and exploitation. Let us keep in mind the fact that the over whelming majority of African countries attainted political independence only in the decade of the 1960s. That is, most have existed sovereign political entities for a period of less than three decades. And indeed the process of decolonialization is still in progress in Africa. The struggle of peoples of South Africa against direct and indirect bondage of apartheid allied with the might of Western economic hegemony provides ample testimony of the agonies of Africa in its determination to overcome the inhumanities of colonialism and neo-colonialism.

Extractions: Dorobo Fund for Tanzania H ome Planet Exploration is proudly associated with the Dorobo Fund for Tanzania and all of our Safaris in East Africa are in coordination with the Dorobo Fund and its projects. Proceeds from every client go into the Dorobo Fund, because all wilderness excursions are at some time within Dorobo project areas. The Dorobo project started out small, as any vision does. Dorobo is now significantly larger but goals are still the same: Helping indigenous peoples confront the modern age while preserving their land resource as wilderness. Home Planet Exploration is actively involved with the Dorobo Fund projects through its operations, proceeds, and staff participation. The Dorobo Fund and its vital cause are the driving force behind our partnership and contributions. D orobo is a collective name for hunter gatherer peoples of mixed ethnic background found in remnant groups scattered throughout both the Kenyan and Tanzanian Maasailand. It is believed that before the migration of the Bantu, as well as, Cushite and Nilo-Hamitic pastoralist, the land was sparsely populated by clans of hunter gatherers. These early bands of people were gradually pushed out by the overpowering intruders, but were able to coexist in some regions of their former territory. A ll Dorobo, regardless of ethnic background , have been culturally influenced in varying degrees by the stronger and more dominant Maasai culture. For example, most Dorobo have lost their language, now speaking only Maa. They live as Maasai live, within the Maasai Kraal. In many ways the Dorobo have become culturally part of the Maasai people, providing honey for their beer, and performing the circumcision rituals on males. The future of these Dorobo is quite clear; they are becoming Maasai. Further south however, where Maasai expansion occurred later, there are groups of Akie Dorobo who still speak their own language, but only in private and among themselves. These clans of indigenous peoples are truly living beyond the realms of time and inherently bring value to all humanity.

Book ID 699 Parkipuny, Moringe The Human Rights Situation of Indigenous Peoples in Africa 1989 Aug 3 Extract Date: 1989 Aug 3 link See also Dorobo 1989 Aug 3 In East Africa there are two main categories of vulnerable minority peoples who have been in consequence subjected to flagrant violations of community and individual rights. These are hunters and gatherers, namely the Hadza Dorobo and Sandawe together with many ethnic groups who are pastoralists. The Maasai of Tanzania and Kenya are the largest and most widely known of he many pastoral peoples of East Africa. These minorities suffer from the common problems which characterize the plight of indigenous peoples throughout the world. [top] Home Sources Names ... Feedback Extract ID: 4166

Extractions: The Ogiek and National Development Processes Kenya's Castaways: The Ogiek and National Development Processes The Ogiek, who number around 20,000, are arguably the largest hunter-gatherer community in Kenya. They have identified themselves as an indigenous people, as defined in Article 1(b) of International Labour Organization Convention No. 169,1 and the United Nations (UN) and the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights have recognized them as such. It seems likely that the Ogiek are aboriginal people of present-day East Africa and that originally they occupied the whole central highlands region. Nagol, an Ogiek elder recollects: 'Our forefathers told us that we occupied areas around forests in this country, before other tribes started coming in.'2 This is supported by other sources: 'They are a hunting and gathering people of antiquity greater than the people among whom they now live '3 Today, the Ogiek occupy the Mau Escarpment and Aberdare around the Rift Valley, as well as part of the Mt Elgon Forest in western Kenya. The clan (Oret), constituted by several local groups, is the land holding unit, and the most important unit socially. The Ogiek do not have centralized leadership institutions like chieftaincies or political councils.4

Extractions: Sorry, but you must enable JavaScript to view the photographs and many of the navigation links and other features on this web site. The Samburu people inhabit an arid region in northern Kenya. They have traditionally herded cattle, though lately some have taken up farming. Others have started raising camels, which do well in this dry area. The Samburu share many customs with the Masai Like the Masai, the Samburu have rather elaborate "coming of age" traditions. Boys are circumcised in their early teens in a ceremony attended by the entire village. The boy who even flinches dishonors himself and his family. Among the photographs you will see Frances, a moran about 20 years old. Frances had received some schooling and was able to speak English well enough to carry on a conversation. He told me a bit about his life and showed me how he uses his spear, club, machete and cattle prod. He is from the Dorobo tribe, which were traditionally hunters instead of shepherds. Frances has already married, but as a moran he must still live outside the village and apart from his wife. He is also forbidden to eat meat in the presence of his wife until he becomes a junior elder of the village. That time will come within the next few years. Then, he will cut his hair short and forego the red ochre and tight braids he now wears.
