Date: 20-11-2000 Climate talks 'could fail' By environment correspondent Alex Kirby in The Hague As government ministers gather in The Hague for the UN conference on climate change, the president of the talks, the Dutch environment minister, Jan Pronk, has warned there is no guarantee of success for international efforts to halt global warming. U.S. blasted at Hague conference for proposed use of 'carbon sinks' Environmentalists lashed out at the United States on Thursday for what they allege is a cynical scheme to turn the Amazon and other primal forests into "carbon sinks" to soak up greenhouse gases. They said the proposal was a blatant attempt to dump the problem of global warming onto the world's poor countries and get out of making costly cuts in energy consumption at home.

Community-Based Management of Animal Genetic Resources with Special Reference to Pastoralists League for Pastoral Peoples, Pragelatostr. 20, 64372 Ober-Ramstadt, Germany (e-mail: gorikr@t-online.de Abstract Introduction Local or indigenous livestock breeds play an important, even crucial role for sustainable rural livelihoods and the utilization of marginal ecological areas. Besides providing a wide variety of products, they yield important non-monetary benefits by enabling poor and landless people to access and utilize communally owned grazing areas, by producing dung that is vital to sustain intensive crop cultivation, by being a component of indigenous rituals and social exchange systems, and by representing a mobile bank account that can be cashed in at times of need. They thus form an essential component of sustainable rural livelihoods. For many decades these indigenous animal genetic resources were perceived as unproductive and inherently inferior to high-performance or improved breeds and, as a consequence, they were subjected to cross-breeding or even replacement with exotic breeds. As a result of this and various other factors, the number of indigenous livestock breeds has declined rapidly during the twentieth century. About one-third of the more than 7 000 livestock breeds (including poultry) registered in the FAO global database are regarded as threatened by extinction (Scherf, 2000). The revival of interest in these local animal genetic resources can be attributed to the following factors:

Indigenous Knowledge and Development Monitor, March 2001 Contents IK Monitor (9-1) IKDM Homepage ikdm@nuffic.nl Ilse Köhler-Rollefson Intellectual property rights regime necessary for traditional livestock raisers This article discusses the need to recognize the intellectual property rights (IPRs) of pastoralists and other traditional domestic animal raisers in the light of the growing interest in making use of the genetic traits of indigenous livestock breeds. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), which has the global mandate for the conservation of domestic animal diversity, about one-third of the 5000 officially documented livestock breeds are threatened with extinction and are dying out at the rate of almost two per week. At the same time, the value of local breeds and their advantages over high-performance breeds are becoming increasingly evident (FAO 1999). Disease resistance of indigenous breeds Role of indigenous knowledge Adapting animals to new and unfavourable environments requires care and determination. The Tzotzil women of Chiapas, Mexico, developed their own breed of sheep - which are able to survive and produce under very challenging circumstances - from stock brought over by the Spanish conquerors (Perezgrovas 1996). The Fulani who inhabit the Sahel zone of Africa systematically and gradually expose animals to tsetse-infested areas, resulting in the survival of cattle in environments that were previously considered unsafe for them (Blench 1999).

For decades, local or indigenous livestock breeds were regarded as inferior to the high-performance breeds developed in the North. Cross-breeding with exotic animals has led to the dilution of indigenous breeds, and this is one of several factors responsible for a very severe narrowing of the genetic base of our domesticated animals. But now more and more reports are indicating that the performance of indigenous breeds is equal to or even better than that of improved or cross-bred animals. In

30. Kenya-Country Information The first people to settle in Kenya were indigenous African communities who Cushites This group includes the Somali, orma, Rendille, and Borana. http://kabiza.com/Kenya-Country-Information.htm

Kenya Country Information (Kenya National Anthem) Kenya's Name Kenya - a wonderful sounding word is named after a mountain of the same name. It was given by the Kikuyu people who lived around present day Mt. Kenya which they referred to as Kirinyaga or Kerenyaga, meaning ‘mountain of whiteness’ because of its snow capped peak (yes, Africa does have snow capped peaks). Mt Kirinyaga which was the main landmark became synonymous with the territory the British later claimed as their colony. However, the name Kenya arose out of the inability of the British and others to pronounce Kirinyaga correctly. When one hears the name "Kenya," there are images of the savannas, animals, safari trips, the Rift Valley, the Indian Ocean coastline and Lake Victoria but Kenya is over (2003 estimate) 30 million people of various ethnic groups (47) and backgrounds and without having met the people of Kenya, one has not seen the real, living Kenya. Early Visitors and Settlers The first people to settle in Kenya were indigenous African communities who migrated from various parts of the continent (Kenya is made up of various people groupings). Other visitors included traders, explorers, missionaries, slave-traders and travelers who came in from various parts of the world such as Portugal, Arabia, Roman empire, India, Greece and as far as China. They visited mainly the East African Coast from as early as the first century A.D. While the majority of the visitors went back to their countries, some settled, and intermarried with the local populations giving rise to a new Swahili culture along the Coast which has a strong Arabian flavor.

MEMORANDUM THE CASE FOR THE RECOGNITION AND PROTECTION OF THE RIGHTS OF KENYA’S INDIGENOUS PEOPLES MEMORANDUM TO:CONSTITUTION OF KENYA REVIEW COMMISSION PRESENTED ON MONDAY 15TH JULY 2002, NAIROBI NOTE: This memorandum has been prepared and submitted to the Constitution of Kenya Review Commission by members of pastoralist and hunter-gatherer communities in Kenya. Pastoralists and hunter-gatherers (PHG) have identified themselves as indigenous peoples owing to their culture, relationship and spiritual attachment to their ancestral and traditional territories, in Kenya, and seek to have the new Kenyan Constitution recognize them as such. THE PROPOSALS AT A GLANCE 1. There shall be a constitutional Commission to address historical injustices. 2. This Constitution shall obligate the State to recognize the rights of indigenous peoples as stipulated by various international instruments and standards, specifically, ILO Convention 169, the United Nations Declaration on Persons belonging to Ethnic Minorities, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, amongst others, mentioned in this memorandum. 3. The question of locus standi requires a more liberal construction with regard to an individual’s prosecutorial powers on behalf of the community.

Flinders Petrie, A History of Egypt - Part One, 1896, pp. 125-129 "The Galla Penetration. It has long ago been remarked that the black sphinxes, later appropriated by the Hyksos, approximated to the Galla type of Abyssinia". "This starts an enquiry how the Galla connection could thus appear on monuments. In the clearance and planning of the rock tombs at Qau, Antaeopolis, the peculiar plan of those tombs, with great halls and small chambers annexed, was observed to be closely parallel to that of later Nubian temples. In both tomb and temple the chief work is in the solid rock, while the forecourt is of masonry constructed in front of it. Another peculiarity was the hammer-work excavation of one tomb, which had evidently been done with stone balls, as in the Aswan granite working, and this implies a southern connection". "These people do not appear in any records, and all their monuments have been reappropriated. They left, however, a most striking style of sculpture, in the sphinxes which were later removed to Tanis, but seem originally to have come from El Kab, where a piece of such a sphinx has been found.The type is closely like that of the Galla. The evidence that all the earlier sculptures of Tanis were collected there by Ramessu II seems clear; and that these sphinxes are earlier than the Hyksos is certain by those kings having appropriated them. No period seems so likely for them as the 7th to the 10th dynasties. The type was heavily bearded, with bushy hair".

The study concludes that integrating science and policy can result both in productive agriculture and effective conservation. The authors offer six strategies that aim to conserve natural habitat and resources, produce adequate amounts of food, and provide sufficient income to farmers. Each strategy is illustrated with case studies, several of them from Central America.

If countries do not provide these standards, they can be punished through trade sanctions. TRIPS Article 27.3(b) requires all countries to protect intellectual property over plant varieties, the basis of food security. According to the agreement, this can be done by patent law or by "effective 'sui generis' system". Developing countries must implement this rule by 1 January 2000 and least developed countries by 1 January 2006. However, the article is being formally reviewed by the WTO members right now and could possibly be changed before the implementation deadline. The review of Article 27.3(b), which has been going on in Geneva over the 1999 series of TRIPS Council meetings, has revealed that the WTO membership is unclear as to what an "effective 'sui generis' system" is or should be. "Sui generis" simply means special or unique, leaving the matter completely open to interpretation.
