Regional : X Politics : Military : Environment : Rights : X Education : NZ Links : Aid/Relief : Economics : X Indigenous : X Health : Peru: 20 August 1999 Indigenous Peoples Still Facing Colour Gap By Abraham Lama LIMA, Aug 9 (IPS) - Not one official activity was planned in Peru for the International Day of Indigenous Peoples, an indicator of the marginalisation and discrimination faced by the country's nine million indigenous people. The United Nations (UN) established the date in 1995 as part of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous Peoples (1994-2004). The goal is to strengthen steps taken towards resolving indigenous people's problems in areas such as human rights, environment, education and health. Peru is a multi-ethnic nation of 25 million - 49 percent are mestizo (mixed race), 14 percent are of European, African or Asian descent, and 36 percent are indigenous peoples who speak their native languages. But Peru's large indigenous population suffers a serious situation of social, economic and cultural marginalisation. The government abolished ''the legal mechanisms for the protection'' of indigenous people because it believes their problems ''are an issue that must be resolved within the liberal economic model,'' stated sociologist Flavio Solorzano, of Population and Development, a non-governmental organisation. The 1993 Constitution, which president Alberto Fujimori actively promoted, was a step backwards as far as indigenous rights are concerned, said jurists Ana Maria Tamayo of Peru and Roque Roldan from Colombia.

Peru: Indigenous peoples and their forests threatened by gas exploitation Within the ecological region of the Andean Belt, the Vilcabamba Cordillera in Peru is the only part where the original habitat has not been degraded. Together with the Urubamba Valley, they constitute a region where so far biodiversity has been conserved in an almost pristine state. Furthermore, it is a zone that fulfils important ecological processes for the water system and climate change, among others essential both to the region and to the world in general. The zone is inhabited by numerous indigenous groups, some of them in a situation of initial contact and in voluntary isolation. But this enormous natural wealth is being threatened by the Camisea Gas Project, carried out by the Pluspetrol-Hunt-SK group, a consortium involving capital from Argentina, the United States and Korea. The background to the project goes back to 1981, when Shell started prospecting in the zone, leading to the identification of gas deposits in Camisea, although it subsequently abandoned the project. In 1999, a call for bids was made for the exploitation of the deposits, and was awarded to the Pluspetrol-Hunt-SK group mentioned above, while transportation and distribution correspond to the Transportadora de Gas del Perú (TGP). The first phase alone of the project will demand an investment of 400 million dollars. This mega project will require the construction of infrastructure and a number of facilities for exploitation, transport, processing, distribution and marketing of this hydrocarbon, with the opening up of trenches 1.5 metres wide, explosions over an area of 800 km2, heliports and various camp sites that will cover 8.5 hectares, 6.400 unloading zones covering 23 hectares, 4 platforms and between 12 and 21 extraction pits, a network of pipelines, 2 pumping stations in the forest, in addition to the processing plant, landing strip, storage and camp sites, over an area of 72 hectares and involving between 500 and 1,000 workers. The addition of all these impacts will result in the destruction and degradation of large forest areas, including the disappearance of numerous species of fauna and flora. As a result, the local populations are seriously concerned.

5. Who Are Indigenous
In Bolivia, Guatemala and peru, indigenous peoples make up over half the population.
http://www.gcc.ca/Political-Issues/international/who_are_indigenous.htm
Who are the World's Indigenous Peoples? Indigenous peoples are the original inhabitants of many countries. They are also called first peoples, tribal peoples, aboriginal peoples, autochthones and, sometimes, the "Fourth World". United Nations definition The UN has not developed a formal definition of indigenous people. As a guide the UN Working Group on Indigenous Populations has used the definition prepared by Jose Martinez Cobo. The Martinez Cobo definition states that indigenous communities, peoples and nations: have a historical continuity with pre-invasion and pre-colonial societies that developed on their territories; consider themselves distinct from other sectors of the societies now prevailing in those territories; form non-dominant sectors of society; are determined to preserve and transmit to future generations their ancestral territories as the basis of their continued existence as peoples, in accordance with their own cultural patterns, social institutions and legal systems. In addition, an indigenous person:

Support requested to forest indigenous peoples in Peru The Mashco Piro, Yora, Amahuaca, and Yaminahua indigenous peoples in the amazonic Alta Piedras region of Madre de Dios in Peru, are being threatened by pending forest concessions. These peoples -called "uncontacted"- which have chosen to remain in isolation from Peruvian society, would have their way of life, as well as their natural resources severely impacted if logging in their ancestral lands actually takes place. The indigenous organization Madre de Dios Native Federation (Federación Nativa Madre de Dios - FENAMAD) has been trying for years to find the way to make the survival of the native inhabitants of that region possible. Nevertheless, the authorities have completely ignored them. FENAMAD took part in the initiative promoted by the Regional Environmental Committee of Madre de Dios to elaborate a proposal for the ecological and economic zonification of the area, which includes the delimitation of indigenous peoples traditional lands to avoid that their territories and resources end in the hands of a few depredatory companies. An operative plan for such delimitation was also presented to the regional office of the Ministry of Agriculture, but the only response obtained until now was that the area is being considered for granting logging licenses. The Peruvian government is up to decide about the licensing of the concessions. Those interesting in supporting this struggle can address the following Peruvian authorities by means of the below model letter:

International News Peru Debates Law on Indigenous Peoples’ Intellectual Property Rights (IPS, Lima, Jan 12, 2000)
The Peruvian government is drafting a law to protect indigenous rights over their ancestral knowledge in an attempt to prevent the history of plundering native wealth from repeating itself, as well as controlling the international exploitation of Peru's native plants. Indigenous communities will be the intellectual owners of genetic resources coming from plant species whose curative or nutritional values form part of their ancestral knowledge, according to the text of the legal bill. ''Peru is one of the countries with greatest biodiversity in the world and must begin utilising the competitive advantage this implies,'' commented Jorge Caillaux, president of the Peruvian Environmental Law Society, ''but it must protect its natural resources as well as the rights of Indigenous peoples.''
Among those participating in drafting the legal bill are representatives from indigenous communities, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and officials from the ministries of Health, Industry, Agriculture and from the National Institute in Defence of Intellectual Property (Indecopi). ''For the first time in the world, a government is proposing to establish protection for the collective knowledge of indigenous peoples, a system to regulate research, production and marketing of genetic resources,'' said Beatriz Boza, of Indecopi.

    Indigenous Peoples, the Invisible Victims of War
    by Abraham Lama LIMA, 7 Mar (IPS) - The Aguaruna and Shuar groups of the Jibara peoples who live on both sides of the Ecuador-Peru border have not been consulted on how to settle the territorial war even though they are the traditional owners of the disputed land. The undeclared war has occured exclusively in Peruvian Aguaruna territory, in the highest part of the Cenepa river valley where 120 Auguaruna communities live. The 5,300 square kilometers have a total population of 35,000 people - 82 of the communities have legal ownership of the majority of their territory while the other 38 are in the process of gaining legal title to their land. The war has had a serious impact on the local communities, and president of the Aguaruna Huambisa Council Evaristo Nukuang reported that 28 local people have been killed by landmines during the conflict. ''No one has included them on the list of casualties, and their families will not receive compensation like the families of the soldiers and other dead,'' said Nukuang. ''There is no peace in our communities, mothers are crying for their children, the children for fear of the bombing raids, and the animals we hunt have all run away...'' he added.

    Peru - Canada Aboriginal Overview
    The rich and diverse indigenous heritage of both countries offers opportunities for Canadian-Peruvian cooperation on aboriginal issues, an area which has garnered greater attention in Peru following the July 2001 inauguration of Alejandro Toledo, the country's first democratically-elected President from a rural, indigenous background. President Toledo has emphasised the need for greater respect for cultural diversity in Peru, and, in October 2001, established the National Commission of Andean and Amazonian Peoples, a multi-sector body mandated to coordinate and execute policies and programs related to Peru's aboriginal peoples. First Lady Eliane Karp, who has also taken an active lead role in promoting the rights and development of Peru's indigenous communities, has been named President of this commission. Unlike some of its neighbours, Peru does not have a national indigenous assembly. There are, however, a variety of regional indigenous organizations active in the country. In 1999, members of the Nisga'a House of Wisdom signed a letter of intent with the Confederation of Amazonian Nationalities of Peru (CONAP) during a visit to Peru. The letter of intent sets out a number of important areas for potential cooperation, particularly the development of an indigenous-centred post-secondary program in the Amazon region of Peru, with the ultimate objective of providing training in natural resource management, traditional medicine and health, community and economic development, and public administration and business.

    Peru
    Indigenous Peoples
    The word indio , as applied to native highland people of Quechua and Aymara origin, carries strong negative meanings and stereotypes among non-native Peruvians. For that reason, the ardently populist Velasco regime attempted with some success to substitute the term peasant (campesino) to accompany the many far-reaching changes his government directed at improving the socioeconomic conditions in the highlands. Nevertheless, traditional usage has prevailed in many areas in reference to those who speak native languages, dress in native styles, and engage in activities defined as native. Peruvian society ascribes to them a caste status to which no one else aspires. The ingrained attitudes and stereotypes held by the mistikuna (the Quechua term for mestizo people) toward the runakuna (native peoplethe Quechua term for themselves) in most highland towns have led to a variety of discriminatory behaviors, from mocking references to "brute" or "savage" to obliging native Americans to step aside, sit in the back of vehicles, and in general humble themselves in the presence of persons of higher status. The pattern of ethnoracist denigration has continued despite all of the protests and reports, official policies, and compelling accounts of discrimination described in Peruvian novels published since the beginning of the twentieth century. The regions and departments with the largest populations of native peoples are construed to be the most backward, being the poorest, least educated, and less developed. They are also the ones with the highest percentages of Quechua and Aymara speakers. The reasons for the perpetuation of colonial values with respect to autochthonous peoples is complex, being more than a simple perseverance of custom. The social condition of the population owes its form to the kinds of expectations embedded in the premises and workings of the nation's institutions. These are not easily altered. Spanish institutions of conquest were implanted into colonial life as part of the strategy for ruling conquered peoples: the indigenous people were defeated and captured and thus, as spoils of war, were as exploitable as mineral wealth or land. In the minds of many highland mestizos as well as betteroff urbanites, they still are.
