Health of Indigenous Requires Multicultural Approach
Washington, D.C., August 9, 2004 (OPS) August 9 marks the celebration of the International Day of the World's Indigenous People. It is a day to look at ways to improve the lot for the indigenous so they can enjoy greater well-being. The indigenous population of the Americas represents 6.7 percent of the total population. PAHO's publication Health in the Americas estimates the indigenous population between 45 million and 50 million. This diverse population speaks 745 different languages. Some 90 percent of them are in Central America and the Andean region. In the United States, the indigenous population is 1.6 million people, and in Canada less than half a million. The countries with greatest indigenous population are Bolivia, Guatemala, Peru, and Ecuador, with proportions that go from 40 percent to 70 percent.

Alan L. Bryan Themes Introduction Asiatic Biological Origins Asiatic Technological Origins The Peopling of Latin America Early Adaptations to South American Environments Introduction Whenever the land bridge existed the south shore remained mild relative to the interior because Arctic ocean currents were cut off. During the maximum glacial advance of the Last Glacial, between about 25,000 and 15,000 years ago, the shores of the Gulf of Alaska and the west coast of British Columbia as far south as Puget Sound in Washington State were covered with glaciers because of heavy snow precipitation in the adjacent mountains. During that time glaciers covered essentially all of Canada, except most of the Yukon, which like the rest of Beringia, remained too arid for accumulation of glacial ice. However, between about 50,000 and 35,000 B. P. (before present) the climate was much as it is now. This warm interval within the Last Glacial is called an interstadial.

I. Introduction Who are Indigenous Peoples? People who inhabited a land before it was conquered by colonial societies and who consider themselves distinct from the societies currently governing those territories are called Indigenous Peoples. As defined by the United Nations Special Rapporteur to the Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities, Indigenous communities, peoples and nations are
(Martinez-Cobo, 1984) self-determination ; based on their respect for the earth.
Despite such extensive diversity in Indigenous communities throughout the world, all Indigenous Peoples have one thing in common - they all share a history of injustice. Indigenous Peoples have been killed, tortured and enslaved. In many cases, they have been the victims of genocide. They have been denied the right to participate in governing processes of the current state systems. Conquest and colonization have attempted to steal their dignity and identity as indigenous peoples, as well as the fundamental right of

The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands Central American indigenous people's painting of wetlands At the conclusion of the 10 days of deliberations, the artists presented their painting and their " People's Declaration on Wetlands " during the closing ceremonies. In the rush of events, however, the painting, though now framed and prominently displayed in the Secretary General's office and during Standing Committee meetings, was not included in reports of the COP and never made available on this Web site. Here is a photo-scan of the painting itself, followed by a description of the circumstances of its creation by Ms rocio.cordoba@orma.iucn.org "The painting was an output coming from a very very important process that IUCN Mesoamerica Wetlands and Coastal Zones Program promoted during the year 1998 and 1999 in Central America. In each country, we had a process of the elaboration of People's Declaration on Wetlands . In each country of the region we have a group of indigenous and campesino people living close to Ramsar sites in a workshop in order to get their feelings about what wetlands are and the importance of these ecosystems for their lifes. As a result of this process a "People's declaration on wetlands" was produced and presented during the COP7 by a local woman from Honduras. In order to elaborate this Central American people's declaration we had a workshop in Solentiname in which all the painters participated and from which they've got the "inspiration" for the painting that you have in Gland and another painting which is in our office in Mesoamerica. As you can see the picture is not only a product of the painters' imagination but an inspiration on the declaration's process. I am really glad that this finally will have the importance that it deserves."

HISTORY
Destination content © Christopher P. Baker, used from Moon Handbooks Costa Rica, 5th edition.
PRE-COLUMBIAN ERA
The region was a potpourri of distinct cultures divided into chiefdoms. In the east along the Caribbean seaboard and along the southern Pacific shores, the peoples shared distinctly South American cultural traits. These groupsthe Caribs on the Caribbean and the Borucas, Chibchas, and Diquis in the southwestwere semi-nomadic hunters and fishermen who raised yucca, squash, pejibaye (bright orange palm fruits), and tubers supplemented by crustaceans, shrimp, lobster, and game; chewed coca; and lived in communal village huts surrounded by fortified palisades. The matriarchal Chibchas and Diquis had a highly developed slave system and were accomplished goldsmiths. Amulets, awls, tweezers for plucking out facial hair, beads and baubles, pendants and religious icons decorated in fantastical animist imagery were among the many items of gold expertly worked through the "lost wax" technique. These people were famed for their simple clothwork, which was traded throughout the country. They were also responsible for the perfectly spherical granite balls (bolas) Alas, the pre-Columbian cultures were quickly choked by the stern hand of gold-thirsty colonial ruleand condemned, too, that Jehovah might triumph over local idols.

Indigenous nations: Sites of interest
January 2004
Vol. 65, No. 1 by Gina Matesic
Research in the area of indigenous nations is inherently multidisciplinary, and any researcher soon discovers the layers of historical, legal, political, environmental, and cultural contexts throughout the information-gathering process. Digitized historical documents, maps, government reports (both historical and contemporary), legal cases, and specialized educational curriculum are accessible to researchers. Librarians in the field must perceive library resources in the broadest manner to be most effective to these researchers. Luckily, these efforts are facilitated through the hypertext and visual nature of the Internet.
There are numerous quality Internet resources about indigenous peoples, individual communities, organizations, and particular topics. In addition to nonindigenous resources, strong effort has been made to include Internet resources created and maintained by indigenous peoples or nations. Increasingly, these groups have used the Internet to communicate and disseminate information about their communities and issues that affect their lives. This column contains a selective list of resources that cover international and regional resources. The term
