Extractions: What should books about indigenous peoples strive for - acceptance among academics or the native peoples themselves? If there is a way to strike a compromise, the authors of Plants and Animals in the Life of the Kuna , have found a way to bridge the gap. This book focuses on Panama's indigenous Kuna people. The work, an environmental and artistic mosaic, is a collaboration among two Kuna biologists and a Panamanian colleague. Illustrations by Kuna artists Ologuagdi and Enrique Tejada provide a clear portal for curious outsiders. The authors document a variety of factors that contribute to environmental degradation, including abuses of the market economy, population growth, and careless practices. Being native to a region does not imply omnipotence. "The Kuna, like the indigenous peoples of North America who enthusiastically killed beaver so that Europeans could wear tall hats, have been drawn into a system vastly larger and more powerful than their own society," writes James Howe in the book's forward. "If they are to survive as a people into the next century, they must reconcile the subsistence and market economies as well as protect the borers of their small enclave." The earth is the mother of all things, the Great Mother. She is the guardian who caringly watches over all that exists. She has burba and we live on her.

Extractions: Panama: Mining, forests and indigenous peoples' rights The isthmus of Panama stretches in Central America, one of the regions of highest natural and cultural diversity in the world. Different forest ecosystems constitute an essential component of such richness. Several indigenous nations have found in the forests their home and source of livelihoods. In Darién, San Blás and Panamá Oriente live the Emberá-Wounan and the Kuna indigenous people, while the Teribe occupy the area of Bocas del Toro, in the border with Costa Rica, together with the Ngobe-Bugle, who also inhabit part of the provinces of Veraguas and Chiriquí Oriente. According to the 1990 National Census, the indigenous population of Panama is composed of 180,700 individuals, which represents 7.8% of the total population of the country. According to the existing records, since 1850 the forest area has been declining at a high rate. That year forests were estimated to cover 91% of the countrys area, even after having suffered a severe process of deforestation caused by the Spanish colonization, which started in the 16th century. During the 20th century the fall was remarkable. For example, between 1950 and 1960 forest cover diminished from 68% to 58%. According to official estimates, in 1992 the forest area was reduced to 3,358,304 hectares, representing 44% of the countrys area. Nowadays deforestation rate has been estimated in 75,000 hectares a year.

http://www.wrm.org.uy/bulletin/57/Panama.html

Extractions: Panamá: Protected areas vs. indigenous peoples The accelerated destruction of forests is one of the most serious environmental problems of Panama, which at present retains only one third of its original forest cover. The best solution found by the State to tackle this problem has been to define protected areas, under the name of "parks", which are generally inhabited by indigenous peoples. This is what happened, for instance, in the Darien National Park, where approximately 40 communities of the Kuna people (Pucuru and Paya) live, or in the La Amistad International Park, where both Naso-Teribe and Bri-Bri peoples live. The establishment of protected areas in these territories implies a ban on hunting, fishing, plant growing and the traditional use of natural resources, and therefore it affects the subsistence of these peoples whose cosmology focuses on their relationship with Mother Earth. Panama has ratified the Convention on Biological Diversity, which aims at the conservation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of natural resources and the equitable sharing of the benefits derived from the use of natural resources. Article 8j of the Convention also establishes that the States, subject to their own legislation, are to respect, preserve and maintain the knowledge, innovations and practices of the indigenous peoples in reference to the use of the natural resources found in their territories. This means that the States should respect the principle of spirituality and sacredness, which are the practice of the indigenous people in reference to the use of the natural resources that surround them.

We believe that it is crucial that all indigenous people come together to analyze what we have accomplished up until now. Our beliefs have been negated for so long; others have spoken for us and have imposed their political ideologies upon us. We must now come together in order to build a more just society, based on the rights of each group, no matter how small, to choose our own destiny. We are very conscious that the struggle for justice will not be achieved by Indian people alone. An alliance with other oppressed sectors is necessary. However, this alliance should emerge from an atmosphere of respect for our differences. 1492: Discovery? Encounter? Invasion? stands with the undefeated losers of the European conquest. This sixteen-page tabloid tells the story of the conquest from the perspective of the indigenous people of Latin America and of North America. It draws from the log of Columbus and from the writing of Rigoberta Menchu, a Guatemalan Indian. It draws from the statements of Native Americans organized for their own commemoration of 500 Years of resistance. It raises questions about "progress." It provides opportunities for student participation through suggested activities and discussion questions.

Extractions: Declaration of the Indigenous Communities of the Darien and Colombian border region We declare that: 1. The problems along the border of Colombia and Panama have been produced by the violation of human rights of indigenous peoples, black people and the peasant sector, within the framework of the globalisation of markets and international privatisation. 2. The policies of security, along both sides of the border, have been developed under a purely military vision, inspired by Plan Colombia and the Andean Regional Initiative. These policies have increased the budgets of the Armed Forces, and have led to an increase in the violation of the civil and political rights of those who attempt to find asylum and of the communities who receive them. 3. The internal conflict in Colombia which has now spread to Panama has forced thousands of Colombians to seek refuge in Panama, has been the pretext to militarize both sides of the border, and employ repressive measures against the population. The restriction of travel, accusations and threats, looting, forced displacement, torture and rape have been used against the civilian population, both those fleeing and those who receive them.

Delegates to the First Millennium Conference of Indigenous Peoples discussed in the Monday plenary session the progress their communities have made in development since 1994, the year marking the start of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous Peoples, declared by the United Nations. The approximately 200 native leaders also deliberated the creation of a Permanent Forum on Indigenous Peoples within the UN system, as well as the economic and cultural impacts of globalization in their communities, and mechanisms to ensure respect for indigenous rights. Tuesday saw the reinforcement of the common stance the world's native peoples will take at the UN World Conference against Racism and Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, to take place this September in Durban, South Africa.

Extractions: Indigenous Peoples Speak Out to Save Ancestral Lands Alicia Korten and Dialis Ehrman Leaders from five Congresses of the Kuna, Embera, Wounaan, Ngobe and Bugle indigenous peoples in Panama have announced that they would oppose any plan to build the Pan-American Highway through the Darien Gap in eastern Panama. The leadership was responding to growing pressure to complete the highway's Darien Gap link, which international business interests see as critical to facilitating trade between North and South America. The declaration was made in July of '95 at the third national meeting of the Indigenous Pan-American Highway Commission (IPAHC), a body that includes organizations representing more than 50,000 indigenous peoples in Panama. The meeting's primary goal was to draft an alternative development document that would take into account indigenous and environmental needs in the region Indigenous leaders hope to use this document to pressure the government and involved financial institutions to consider more sustainable and equitable land-use plans for the Darien Gap. Leaders unanimously agreed to reject construction of the Pan-American Highway, a railroad, or any other project crossing their lands until these lands have been legalized and demarcated. Indigenous people's fears regarding the highway's negative impacts were reinforced by catastrophic flooding last year that destroyed several Kuna communities situated near the Pan-American Highway, which stretches for roughly 160 kms into the Darien Province. "The night [the Chucunaque River rose] our children had to swim to stay alive, the water came up to the necks of the older people. All our fields and many of our houses were washed away. I have never seen such a flood in my lifetime," explained Horacio Lopez Turino, community leader of Wala. He and other residents believe that the flood was a consequence of unprecedented deforestation in the last two decades by loggers and cattle ranchers who have used the highway to gain access to the region's resources.
