UNDP (Guyana) National Report On Indigenous Peoples And Development This report by Jorg Vereecke, Associate Expert on Indigenous People at the United Nations Development Program office in guyana, covers living conditions, access to resources, environmental issues, management and business development. http://www.sdnp.org.gy/undp-docs/nripd/

UNDP - Associate Expert on Indigenous People (Main body of report converted to HTML by SDNP Guyana, 1999) Guyana, located in the northeast of South America, is a rather small multiracial and English-speaking country. The approximately 740,000 people living in the country is made up out of Amerindians (5.3 %), Blacks (30.5 %), East Indians (51.4 %), Chinese (0.2 %), White (2.1 %), and Mixed (10 %). During the last decade, popula- tion figures have been declining due to the out-migration of Guyanese for economic reasons, mainly to the United States of America. There are 4 natural regions : For administrative purposes, Guyana is divided into 10 regions : Guyana is also known as "the land of many waters", because of the many rivers in the country. Most regional boundaries are following the natural features of rivers. The name "Indigenous People" is an alien term for Guyanese to the extent that almost everybody, indigenous persons included, speak about the "Amerindians". Originally, the Guyana Shield counted many more tribes as in today's situation. Scientists like W. Edwards, found proof that the Amerindian occupation of Guyana goes back as far as 12,000 years. But since early colonization many peoples, among which the Maiongkongs, the Maopityans, the Drios, Tarumas, Amaripas and Pianoghottos, disappeared or assimilated with the mainstream of Guyanese society. In today's Guyana, there still exist nine indigenous tribes living scattered all over the Country. These are the Akawaio (3,800), Arekuna (475), Arawak (15,000), Macushi (Braz. Macuxi - 7,000), Wapishanas (6,000), Patamuna (4,700), Waiwai (198), Warrau (4,700) and Carib (2,700). They belong to three different linguistic groups : the Arawakan, the Cariban and the Warrauan. There are also a few members of other tribes in Guyana (Trio, Atorad, Taruma). In most cases, these people immigrated from neighboring countries and settled in Guyana, as in the case of the Trio at Cashew Island in the vicinity of the Rio Novo.

193. Guyanese Politics An indepth look at causes and effects of the colonial legacy with respect to guyana's political landscape, both past and present. http://student-www.uchicago.edu/~rts1/guyanese.htm

Raymond T. Smith Go To Site Map Introduction: An Unlikely Story The present-day Republic of Guyana is an insignificant remnant of the old British Empire, the only possession Britain ever held on the mainland of South America, uneasily resting between Venezuela and Brazil and adjoining two other fragments of European colonial empires, Suriname and Cayenne, erstwhile possessions of Holland and France respectively. Guyana has no great economic or strategic value. Most of its 83,000 square miles is uninhabited forest and infertile savannah, and its population of less than 800,000 is little, if any, better-off today that it was when Guyana became independent in 1966. Why then, should its recent political history be of any but local interest? Because it became an obsession of the United States during the Cold War and illustrates in a particularly vivid way the manner in which the State Department forced its views upon a reluctant British Government, distorting the social and political development of the country. The officials of the United States government were not the only ones with a warped view of the importance of this small country; Guyanese leaders also had grandiose illusions of their own importance as players on the world stage.

Neue Tipps/Touren Reise-Galerie Weltkarte Guyana Land der vielen Wasser Georgetown - Vor gut zwölf Jahren schlief Joanne Jardin mutterseelenallein in der Hängematte im Dschungel am Rande des Essequibo River. "Ich hatte immer eine Machete und ein Gewehr neben mir." Von Guyanas Hauptstadt Georgetown brauchte sie fast 20 Stunden für die Fahrt durch den Urwald. Heute dauert der Trip zu Joannes kleinem Dschungel-Resort Shanklands knapp drei Stunden, die letzten 60 Minuten mit dem 200 PS starken Boot den Fluß entlang. INFORMATIONEN: Guyana REISEZIEL: ZEITUNTERSCHIED: Minus vier Stunden. US-Dollar bar und Reisechecks werden bei den Banken und Hotels in den Guyana-Dollar getauscht. In Hotels und Resorts sind US-Dollar willkommen. Kreditkarten noch wenig verbreitet. SPRACHE: Englisch. REISEZEIT: GESUNDHEIT: UNTERKUNFT: INFORMATIONEN: Tourism Association of Guyana, 228 South Road, Georgetown (Tel. von Deutschland aus: 00 592 2 50807, Fax 00 592 2 50817) Hilfestellung gibt Boyo Ramsaroop (spricht deutsch), Arawak Resort, 58 Eastern Highway, Lamaha Gardens, Georgetown (Tel.: 00 592 2 60997). Doch der Ansturm der Besucher im Shanklands, in den anderen Dschungel- und River-Resorts sowie den Hotels in der Hauptstadt hält sich noch in Grenzen. Statt Sandstränden und Nachtleben bietet das "Land der vielen Wasser" Natur- und Abenteuer-Touristen atemberaubende Wasserfälle, ungefährliche Dschungel-Ausflüge und eine seltene Tier- und Pflanzenwelt. Die indianische Urbevölkerung, die Amerindians, läßt Besucher, die ihre Sitten respektieren, an Leben und Kultur Anteil haben.

198. Travel Guyana: (Guyana Overview) Short introduction to this land of tumbling rivers and dense rainforests. http://www.geographia.com/guyana/

Kaieteur Falls The tumbling rivers and dense rainforests of Guyana are filled with extraordinary natural sights. Kaieteur Falls, where the 400-foot wide Potaro River plunges 822 feet downward from the Pakaraima Plateau, is the world's longest single-drop waterfalls. Guyana, a country of exceptional natural beauty, is a splendid combination of the Caribbean and South America, with fascinating touches of a sometimes turbulent past. Perched on the north-east corner of the South American continent, Guyana stretches 450 miles from its long Atlantic coastline into dense equatorial forest and the broad savannah of the Rupununi. The picturesque capital and primary port is Georgetown, a city of comfortable, modern hotels, fine colonial buildings, and broad, tree-lined boulevards. The striking wooden architecture is reminiscent of Guyana's centuries as a Dutch, and then a British colony. Georgetown offers an evocative introduction to the land of Guyana. Don't miss the imposing St. George's Cathedral, reputed to be the tallest wooden building in the world. Life in Guyana is dominated by mighty rivers, including the Demerara, the Berbice and the Essequibo, which provide essential highways into the rain forests and jungles of the interior. Mankind has made little impact here, and today Guyana remains one of the world's most exciting destinations for adventuresome travel and exploration.

The Amerindians of Guyana The Akawaio Indians of Guyana (Walter Roth Museum): “The Carib-speaking Akawaio are the linguistic descendants of the Karinya. During an extended period of drought conditions and forest fragmentation, the Akawaio pioneered the occupation of the hinterland forests around the beginning of the Christian era. Around 80 BCE, Akawaio occupied Quartz Island on the Mazaruni river.
