Malungana 1 Introduction There are three problems which I address in this article. The first concern is that often voiced by the elderly within African culture, namely that they observe the uncultured rules of morals, bad manners, lack of accepted etiquette and lack of respect among youths. The second concern is more general. The indigenous South African languages and their traditions have not received adequate attention in education, research and study. This is especially true in schools. The third concern relates to the fact that publishers do not publish indigenous cultural materials. All three these elements hang together, causing the marginalisation of African indigenous culture in South Africa. 2 The Meaning and Function of Taboos in Xitsonga Oral Tradition Xiyila (taboo) is a Xitsonga word for supernatural injunctions against socially undesirable conduct or behaviour practised by an individual.

"Obasi Dielu Kere Ndu- So Ya Nwe Iwerekwa", is an Igbo proverb which means-"The Supreme Being created life-Only God has the right to take it back". Before the Moslem invasion of Northern Okebulani (Africa) and the imposition of Islam on the Hausa ethnic group of Nigeria, they, like the Igbo, say in their own Hausa language: "Ubangiji Shi ne de rei-Shi kwuma ina de karifi doka nshi"-God created life. Only God alone has the right to take it back". The Yoruba ethnic group of Western Nigeria say the same thing in their language-"Olodumare lo da emii-onwu no lo de ni agbara lati gba", which means "God created life and is the only one that has the right to take it back". This philosophy is shared by other ethnic groups of Africa who express the adage in various ways in their own languages.

We have several barriers to meeting this challenge. But God is providing a way to meet them. Language - With over 6,500 languages the task seems impossible. Each aspect of a language poses a unique set of problems. This confines us to producing material by population size. Spoken Language - There is a problem with dialects, pronounciation and the availability of qualified people to teach the gospel. Also, a single written word can have several meanings depending on the tone used to pronounce the word.

Education Indigenous to Place: Western Science Meets Native Reality by Angayuqaq Oscar Kawagley and Ray Barnhardt Indigenous peoples throughout the world have sustained their unique worldviews and associated knowledge systems for millenia, even while undergoing major social upheavals as a result of transformative forces beyond their control. Many of the core values, beliefs and practices associated with those worldviews have survived and are beginning to be recognized as having an adaptive integrity that is as valid for today's generation as it was for generations past. The depth of indigenous knowledge rooted in the long inhabitation of a particular place offers lessons that can benefit everyone, from educator to scientist, as we search for a more satisfying and sustainable way to live on this planet. Alaska Native people have their own ways of looking at and relating to the world, the universe, and to each other. Their traditional education processes were carefully constructed around observing natural processes, adapting modes of survival, obtaining sustenance from the plant and animal world, and using natural materials to make their tools and implements. All of this was made understandable through thoughtful stories and demonstration. Indigenous views of the world and approaches to education have been brought into jeopardy with the spread of western social structures and institutionalized forms of cultural transmission. Recently, however, many Native as well as non-Native people are recognizing the limitations of the western educational system, and new approaches are being devised. It is the intent of this chapter to contribute to our understanding of the relationship between Native ways of knowing and those associated with western science and formal education, so we can devise a system of education for all people that respects the philosophical and pedagogical foundations provided by both indigenous and western cultural traditions. While the examples used here will be drawn from the Alaska Native context, they are illustrative of the issues that emerge in any context where efforts are underway to reconnect education to a sense of place (Orr, 1994).

A There are two reasons why someone would apply for a patent in a developing country: i) to make a profit - which requires two elements seldom present together in developing countries, i.e. a good market for the invention and the means (financial resources and a functional legal system) to enforce the patent ii) to prevent the developing country making infringing products (only the largest international corporations would patent for this reason) b) Making a profit from a patent requires the applicant having funds to i) obtain or license the patent ii) enforce it c) Licensing of patents is less attractive in developing countries as the market may be small and patent enforcement may be expensive, slow or uncertain. 1.2 Companies from developed countries patenting genetic material from developing countries

All Themes INTRODUCTION Canada's Regional Consultations in Advance of the United Nations World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance This Record of Proceedings is a summary of the discussions that took place during seven regional consultations across Canada in the fall and spring of 2000-2001. Held in Edmonton, Vancouver, Winnipeg, Toronto, Halifax, Montreal and Iqaluit, these consultations were part of Canada's domestic preparations for the United Nations World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance. The World Conference will take place from August 31 to September 7, 2001 in South Africa. The regional consultations served as a forum for many individuals and groups to discuss and learn more about Canada's diversity and to find ways of resolving the problems of discrimination, racism, and hate. By working together to develop a strategy to fight racism at home and to establish Canada's positions for the World Conference, the participants were helping to build bridges between people, communities and countries.

38. Bracing For 'El Nuna' Andean Groups Hopping Mad About Popping-Bean Patent indigenous elders from six Andean communities that grow nuna beans met in late indigenous groups in the region agree. This is a fight the people of the http://www.biotech-info.net/bean_patents.html

"Bracing for 'El Nuna' Andean Groups Hopping Mad About Popping-Bean Patent" RAFI News Release March 20, 2001 Tales from a Tribunal: The nuna bean is part of the Andean heritage. It is our treasure. For a company to patent a nuna cross, claiming the bean-nut popping bean as an invention with absolute world novelty is immoral and violates the rights of all indigenous groups, said Elias Carreno, Coordinator of the Stop Biopiracy in the Andes Campaign of the Associacion Kechua-Aymara for Sustainable Livelihoods, ANDES (translated from Spanish). Indigenous elders from six Andean communities that grow nuna beans met in late February for a traditional Quechua tribunal to deliberate on US Patent No. 6,040,503 on the bean-nut popping bean awarded to a US food processor, Appropriate Engineering and Manufacturing. The popping bean trait is found only in the Andean nuna bean, which the inventors claim in their patent. After hearing testimony from expert witnesses, the tribunal rendered their decision. Their verdict was unflinching in its criticism of intellectual property monopolies that are predatory on the knowledge, rights and resources of indigenous people. Ayahuasca, quinoa, and now nuna, said Carreno, referring to controversial US patent claims on traditional Andean medicinal plants and food crops. (The ayahuasca and quinoa patents were subsequently overturned or abandoned due to the protests of indigenous peoples). These plants represent the collective heritage and knowledge of our people, and we won t sit back and allow our popping-bean to be appropriated by a monopoly patent.

Pictures / photos / images of some MASKS and headdresses in the African tribal, antique, ritual, ethnographic, classical, "primitive" art collection (of variable age, artistic quality, and degree of authenticity) Many African societies see masks as mediators between the living world and the supernatural world of the dead, ancestors and other entities. Masks became and still become the attribute of a dressed up dancer who gave it life and word at the time of ceremonies. In producing a mask, a sculptor's aim is to depict a person's psychological and moral characteristics, rather than provide a portrait. The sculptor begins by cutting a piece of wood and leaving it to dry in the sun; if it cracks, it cannot be used for a mask. African sculptors see wood as a complex living material and believe each piece can add its own feature to their work. Having made certain the wood is suitable, the sculptor begins, using an azde to carve the main features, a chisel to work on details and a rough leaf to sand the piece. He then paints the mask with pigments such as charcoal (to give a black colour), powders made from vegetable matter or trees (for ochre/earth tones) or mineral powders like clay (to give a white colour).
