It's late and you're sleeping comfortably in bed. Without warning, government officials burst into your home and take your personal belongings. You sit stunned, still half-awake as they leave, with no recourse for justice. Sound impossible? Think again. For the nearly 350 million indigenous peoples worldwide, this could be a daily occurrence. Governments and big businesses work hard to secure natural resources that exist in rainforests and other biologically rich lands. And most of the time, land rights or the autonomy of indigenous peoples are not considered when investigating the possibility of procuring medicinal agents. From Argentina to Zaire, there is only one thing considered: the potential for a bumper crop of cash. Until recently, the main problem has been that indigenous peoples have not had legal representation on an international level to deal with these rights issues. This, however, is beginning to change.

    Extractions: indigenous Maori people of Aotearoa (New Zealand). It is true that science is knowledge, but it is equally true that ALL knowledge is biased, ALL knowledge is culturally defined. In this we must shift our arguement from one of science to one of scientific method and this I believe is where the failing of western `science' arises. Our tupuna (ancestors) where obviously great scientists and scholars, how else were we able to adapt and survive in our respective lands, the navigation and maritime skills of my Polynesian forebears, and the great civiliszations and technologies of yours prooves this. However it is the way they aquired and analyzed knowledge which differs to western scientific method. Western Scientific method being one of `Hypothesis-Test-Hypothesis' means that all observation and experimentation is determined and largely defined by the initial theory upon which the hypothesis is based. The result of this is that the scientist will observe the data appropriate to the theory, (their observation being constrained by their theories), and will thus either prove or disprove that theory.

    Extractions: Teaching Indigenous Peoples Music in a Mainstream Context Background The writer lives in Norway where there is a large population of indigenous people calls the Sami. They reside primarily in the north of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. The Sami speak a native language and have maintained a music tradition that has survived despite the threats of extinction. For years, they were not allowed to speak their language or to perform their music. However in 1997, the Norwegian school system issued a mandate that all teachers must instruct students in music of the Sami at the primary and secondary levels. In order to acquire knowledge for accomplishing this task, the writer travelled to New Zealand to study a similar situation where music of the Maori (an indigenous culture) has been incorporated in the music programs. As a result of the study, the writer proposes to do two things in this presentation: 1 describe the situation of indigenous music in teacher education in Norway and New Zealand and 2) raise some questions about teaching the indigenous peoples music in a mainstream context. Sami Music in teacher education in Norway In Norway, there is a national curriculum framework (1997) that details the subjects that should be taught and the percentage each should occupy in the total educational program. However, the plan does not specify the content of the Sami traditions to be taught. Nor does it suggest teaching materials and aids to be used in instruction. Yet, teachers are required to integrate the music in the total curriculum.

She replied, "Why don’t you just say you are indigenous?" Why not indeed? By "half-indigenous" I wanted to say I am part-Ilocano and part-Ibanag. I was more embarrassed than this Maori may have noticed. Her momentary response did not cause my embarrassment. Instead, it was my discovery later that day that I have not, until now, seriously conceived of my identity and praxis as an indigenous person, and I also have not adequately critiqued the "nonindigenous" in me. Rather, I have either introduced myself as a Filipino, the collective political identity of the peoples of the Philippines, or simply as an Ilocano, emphasizing what other language I spoke and where I come from geographically.

    Extractions: Aotearoa: Underlying Causes of Deforestation analysed at Indigenous Peoples Workshop The weekend of the 21st and 22nd of September PIPEC (Pacific Indigenous People's Environment Coalition) held a workshop on the Underlying Causes of Deforestation and Forest Degradation. The workshop was opened by the new Conservation Minister for New Zealand, Chris Carter, and had representatives from most of the Pacific nations' communities here in Aotearoa, along with Maori representation. Nearly all of the Pacific academics working in the tertiary sector attended, as did a representative of Siosiomaga Society from Samoa. There were four case studies presented; Aotearoa, Samoa, Soloman Islands and Tonga and the Pacific children were represented by speeches on the importance of forests in our lives by school children in the 10 to 13 year old age group. For most of us, this was by far the most moving part of the workshop as we got to see the next generation of forest activists in action. (many for the very first time) The second day of the conference saw a facilitated brainstorm on Pan-Pacific underlying causes, hoping to draw out potential solutions and major causes and actors. Given that this was an Indigenous workshop, it is not surprising that most of the solutions focused around political leadership, policy and will. Education and capacity building of Indigenous Peoples was identified as being the single biggest potential solution and this was seen within the context of building true independence.

There are more than 300 million indigenous peoples in the world, on every continent and representing many cultures. However, indigenous peoples are over represented among the world’s vulnerable groups, suffering low incomes, living in poor conditions, and lacking adequate access to employment, education, safe water, food and health care services. Although epidemiological data is scanty, available morbidity and mortality data point to the following health impacts on indigenous peoples: Life expectancy at birth is 10 to 20 years less than for the overall population in a country Infant mortality rates are 1.5 to 3 times greater than the national average

The Treaty is seen as the founding document of our nation. It was signed in 1840 by representatives of the British Crown and Maori chiefs. Once considered irrelevant it has become a document central in determining the future of race relations in this country and in the redress of past injustices. The Treaty of Waitangi has different meanings for different people, but it has always remained important to Maori. Join us as we commemorate Waitangi Day 1999. What's on?

    Extractions: WAI 262: A Claim for the Recognition of Maori Cultural and Intellectual Property Rights In effect of government policies regarding economic globalization and liberalization of investments (such as the implementation of the provisions of the WTO in national law), six Maori tribes have lodged the claim WAI 262 with the Waitangi Tribunal. This claim is concerned with the recognition of Maori cultural and intellectual property rights and their political authority with respect to knowledge of native flora and fauna. According to the claimants, this knowledge was traditionally maintained by them and, as such, affirmed by the Treaty of Waitangi. The claimants argue that the New Zealand government has acted in breach with the Treaty of Waitangi in its legislation and policies, which have resulted in the denial of Maori exercising their political authority. The claim is focused on government policy which promotes the sale and export of the species under claim to overseas scientific and commercial companies arguing that it is in the best interests of all New Zealand citizens. Maori claimants, however, argue that by signing intergovernmental agreements regarding the liberalization of the world economy, such as WTO, Maori cultural values are denied and their intellectual property rights are endangered (Statement of Claim WAI 262 1991).

    Extractions: (made by 1995 Yearly Meeting) As members of Te Hahi Tuhauwiri, the Religious Society of Friends, meeting at its annual business meeting in Christchurch at this critical moment in Maori-Pakeha relationships, we affirm our commitment to the promise of a Treaty-based relationship between our peoples, and confidence in the future of our life together. We recognise the historic wrong done to Maori by the Crown's failure to act in accordance with the Treaty. Pakeha New Zealanders are perhaps better able to begin to appreciate the effects of Maori dispossession after our more recent experience of government action to sell off public assets and restructure health and education. To some of these changes, Maori claims have been the only effective resistance. In spite of the rejection by Maori of the Crown's recent unilateral proposals for settling Treaty of Waitangi claims, the process of discussion has had some positive results in the unified articulation of what Maori regard as the real issues, and in the opportunity for them to meet members of the Government face to face to voice their deeply-felt hurt and anger. For many New Zealanders this has been a disquieting experience. We understand the apprehension. However we also recognise the extreme frustration experienced by Maori tribes and people, especially those of the younger generation, at the lack of real progress towards redressing historical grievances.

    Extractions: Sheaf Staff Writer On March 8, Dr. Graham Hingangaroa Smith, a renowned Maori educator, presented the first ever Governance Colloquium to launch the University of Saskatchewan's new International Center for Governance and Development. Dr. Smith gave his lecture, entitled, "Governance, Development and the Indigenous Peoples: Global Perspectives" in the Private Dining Room of Marquis Hall, with a lunch taking place beforehand. Smith spoke on many differing topics, focusing on the subject of the new political ideology of New Zealand and the impacts that have affected the Maori people. In New Zealand, a shift occurred from a welfare state economy to a free-market economy, causing a cascade of hardships for the Maori. As new hegemonies were created and equity in New Zealand was redefined, many Maori peoples found themselves without the familiarity of "state treaties," said Smith, which they had relied upon for many years. Previous state responsibilities such as education and health care turned into concerns addressed by the private sector, leaving the Maori people with "very little," he said. Smith added that Maori thought also differs from that of the state in many areas, causing further problems. The free-market economy changed the education system of New Zealand dramatically. In a country where very few qualified credential providers existed, many new establishments were able to flourish. It became easier to obtain a degree, and an emphasis was put on training rather than learning; knowledge was now seen as a tool to obtain financial success. The Maori did not agree with this, as knowledge to them was seen as being a gift that should be used to benefit the public good, explained Smith.
