MILITARIZATION OF INDIGENOUS AREAS A GROWING THREAT, PERMANENT FORUM TOLD
(Received from a UN Information Officer.)
The representative of Na Koa Ikaika O Kalahui Hawaii (United States) recommended that the Forum shine light on the fact that a handful of States were trying to stall negotiations on the draft declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples.  The Forum should call for a second Decade on indigenous peoples, since States and United Nations agencies had not fulfilled many of their obligations under the first Decade (1995-2004).  The Forum should establish a working group on free and prior informed consent and participatory research guidelines, to address the many development, environment, health, education and human rights problems emerged at the session, as well as to guarantee that indigenous communities also benefit from medical and genetic research.
The representative of Chirapaq (Permanent Workshop of Peruvian Indigenous Women) said the establishment of the Permanent Forum was not a gift, but the result of great individual and collective efforts.  Indigenous women, who were often victims of violence within and outside the family, secured the economic
Eiji Yamamoto (Japan) said his county supported the efforts of the international community to promote the cause of indigenous peoples.  It was crucial for the success of the Permanent Forum that it coordinated its work with United Nations and international agencies.  The Forum should be provided with an appropriate secretariat, making the best possible use of existing mechanisms.

Bolivia’s indigenous want a share of the oil and gas wealth
21-07-04 Bolivia, South America's poorest country, is caught up in a period of social unrest, with indigenous communities from the tropical eastern part of the country and the western highlands fighting for government policies that respect their cultures, languages and mineral-rich territories.
Nearly 3 mm voters came out to help decide in a referendum how best to develop and exploit the country's natural gas reserves. According to the preliminary results the final tally is not yet in a majority backed President Carlos Mesa's plans to achieve more state control over oil and gas reserves, which have been in the hands of foreign oil companies since the partial privatisation of the sector in the 1990s. But the referendum, which was held at the behest of indigenous, labour and social activists, was just the start of the exercise of the direct democracy demanded by the country's indigenous majority and other popular sectors. The next step in the plans of indigenous groups and trade unions is the convocation of a constituent assembly in 2005 to rewrite the constitution and, in Mesa's words, "re-found" Bolivia.
"The constituent assembly must not exclude any sectors, and must recognize the country's cultural diversity and multi-ethnic character," Javier Paredes, an adviser to the Confederation of Indigenous Peoples of Bolivia (CIDOB), told.

THE FOUNDATION
It was established in the city of Sucre by a reunion of the representatives of 39 communities which proposed that the organisation should be controlled and directed by the native people themselves, on the 9th of September 1984. It obtained juridical personality in 1986.
It has improved the agricultural infrastructure of dozens of Aymara and Quechua communities building systems of micro-irrigation, greenhouses, community centres, veterinary centres and also mobilising the conservation of soil and reforesting Andean spaces.
It has trained indigenous leaders to occupy new spaces of power on the local, regional and national level, which includes and understanding of development as a way to break with the traditional schemes of domination which act against we indigenous peoples.
There are hundreds of national and international development organisations in Bolivia, but Kechuaymara is one of the few development institutiions founded on an indigenous philosophy and by indigenous people of the country. It has a board Directors composed of founder members and representatives of indigenous communities who govern the interests of the Foundation. Its technical and professional team is made up, in addition, of indigenous men and women.
A BRIEF HISTORY
In 1984, Andres Jachakollo and Waskar Tupai Ari, two Bolivian Aymara, as members of a religious organisatiion discovered that spiritual activities were not sufficient to overcome the oppression suffered by the indigenous communities. They gathered educated indigenous people and representatives of indigenous communities to establish an organisation of indigenous communities that did not have religious or party-political ends. Jachakollo and Ari also proposed to set up this institution as a new way of struggling for human rights and dignity for the indigenous peoples, following the same route as the long history of indigenous resistance in the Andes.

DECLARATION OF THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE OF QULLASUYU - BOLIVIA ON THE PERMANENT FORUM FOR INDIGENOUS AFFAIRS
The indigenous organisations of Bolivia:
Also present at this meeting are representatives from other South American organisations, including Carmen Yamberla (FICI - Ecuador), Jesusa Valdivia, Rumimaki Departmental Federation (Puno - Peru), Aucan Huilcaman, All Territories Council (Mapuche - Chile), Maria Teresa Huentequeo, Women´s Association (Mapuche - Chile) and Marcial Arias (FPCI - Panama).
During the meeting we examined how the idea of the Permanent Forum had progressed since it was presented in the Global Conference on Human Rights in Vienna in 1993. We also shared information on the process of monitoring and participation which the indigenous representatives have undergone with the Permanent Forum. We were also informed of the resolution taken by the Human Rights Council, its ratification by the Economic and Social Council ECOSOC and its adoption by the United Nations' General Assembly.
After having exchanged and analysed various points of view on the course the Permanent Forum is taking, the participating organisations identified their lack of participation in its progression. However, in response to this reflection we confirmed our resolve to participate in the process of making eligible indigenous representation as South America proposes and from this moment forth we will take an active role in the development of the Permanent Forum's activities.

Independently, Alfredo Torero, came to name this family Aru . Recently, Rodolfo Cerron Palomino, proposed that it be given the name Aymara . Cerron Palomino's argument rests on the need to find a pattern of symmetry, regarding the terminology applied to Aymara language and in relation to the Quechua family, for which names such as simi were discarded as unacceptable. In these first years of the 21st. century, according to information that we have, we can say with great affliction, that Kawki might already be extinct; while Jaqaru spoken round Tupe (Yauyos), by only a few thousand Tupi people, most of whom are living in the city of Lima, faces the fate of its own agonising death. This in turn makes us think, that within one or two generations Jaqaru, daughter language in the Aymara family, will also come to be one of the extinct languages of the world. The Italian jesuit Ludovico Bertonio compiled the first grammatical and lexical study of the Aymara language towards the end of the 16th. century, while as a missionary in Juli (Chucuito, Puno). Bertonio conducted his study of Aymara using Latin as his point of reference. During the four centuries following Bertonio other studies of the Aymara language were carried out, which continued taking Indo-European grammatical models as frame of reference. The work of Ellen Ross in 1963, is considered to be the first study of the Aymara language that applies concepts of modern linguistics, and is shaken of the defects of previous studies. Following Ross, there appeared the team of linguists of the School of Florida, under the guidance of M.J. Hardman. The results of their studies are considered by all researchers of the Aymara language to rank amongst the most important up to date.

Historically, indigenous people are the pure-blooded descendants of the original inhabitants of the Americas. But few would accept a racial definition today. Many pure-blood Indians deny their origins to speed their assimilation and to blunt fierce racism. Millions of indigenous people now live in towns and cities: hundreds of thousands are completely bi- or even tri-lingual; tens of thousands have university degrees and professional jobs.

Thus land is also identity, and inheritance of land makes the vital link to ancestors whose spirits dictate so many customs and traditions. Land is the home of the most important indigenous god.

HR/4601 23 May 2002 MILITARIZATION OF INDIGENOUS AREAS A GROWING THREAT, PERMANENT FORUM TOLD (Received from a UN Information Officer.) NEW YORK, 22 May An “alarming increase of militarization in many parts of Asia” was affecting indigenous communities, an indigenous representative today told the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues as it continued to review human rights issues. The representative of the Asia Indigenous Peoples Pact said the militarization in indigenous peoples’ areas was the root cause of many forms of human rights violations. By declaring states of emergency, laws on "disturbed areas" and other draconian measures, some Asian countries had legitimized acts of violence by the military. The Forum should form a Working Group on Militarization to consult with affected indigenous peoples; request United Nations agencies to ensure that funds allocated for development are not used for military activities; and recommend the appointment of a Special Rapporteur on militarization in indigenous areas. Asenaca Uluiviti (Fiji) said the Forum presented a refreshing opportunity to inject into the United Nations system “old and organic ways of knowing.”

INDIGENOUS SPIRITUALITY Aymara spirituality:
a challenge for Christian spirituality
By Rev. Humberto Ramos Salazar
The Aymara vision of the cosmos is based on the notion of the binary, of complementarity
Clotilde Masabeyezu, Batwa

Let me set the context. The Christian church came to the Andean region in 1532 at the time of the conquest led by Francisco Pizarro. Since then there has been both the "Christian religion" and "ancestral religion". Because the Christian message was only partly understood by those who brought the Christian religion to the region, serious conflicts arose , costing the lives of millions of the Indigenous People of Abya Yala. This misinterpretation no doubt persists even today in certain parts of the Christian church, both Roman Catholic and Protestant, causing a division between "Christian" and "ancestral" understanding in religious matters and in the daily life of faith in "God". Aymara Spirituality When we speak of spirituality, we refer to the "ruah" of the Old Testament Hebrew texts or the "pneuma" of the New Testament texts. A certain conflict arises when I use the terms for spirit in the Aymara language : "kamasa" or "ajayu". Aymara spirituality can be seen in the praxis of the people , it is expressed in everyday life. It is the expression of solidarity, it is communion with the whole creation, the very life of the people with their successes and failures, weaknesses and strengths, their plans and their hopes.

To: UN Member State Delegations at the Fifth Committee of the General Assembly, 56th Session
10 October 2001
Dear Sir/Madam;
We, the undersigned Indigenous peoples and organizations, would like to draw the attention of the General Assembly to questions related to the budget for the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.
Allow us to also draw your attention to the fact that Indigenous peoples worldwide (1) want the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues to have a Separate Secretariat; and (2) want the Secretariat of the Permanent Forum to be staffed by qualified Indigenous persons.
Financing of the activities of the Permanent Forum:
The success of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues depends very much on the financial arrangements for its activities. We hold the view, that it is crucial that the General Assembly, through the Regular Budget of the UN, provide the necessary financial resources for the functioning of the Forum, including the establishment of a separate secretariat. Moreover, we strongly encourage governments to support the functioning of the Permanent Forum through voluntary financial contributions.
