INSTITUTIONAL BUILDING FOR NORTHERN ABORIGINAL PEOPLES IN RUSSIA (INRIPP
Background
The successful completion of this project in 2000 lead ICC-Canada and DIAND to seek funding from the Canadian International Development Agency in support of a second phase of this work over the next five years. The proposal was accepted and phase two, with a budget of $5 million, began in July 2000.
What is INRIPP-2?
INRIPP-2 is phase two of this institutional building project. It will focus on ensuring the direct involvement of indigenous peoples in economic development and participation in the decision-making processes at the national, regional and local levels. The project has two fundamental objectives. The first is to support the sustainable political, economic and cultural development of Russia's northern indigenous peoples by establishing, through RAIPON, a training and economic development centre. Over the next five years, this centre will provide training, develop an outreach program and promote revenue generation. The second objective is to assist the Russian government in the implementation of its new Northern and Aboriginal Development Program by strengthening the government capacity to promote community development and nurture indigenous small businesses and co-management. To achieve these objectives the project is comprised of three complementary parts.

Indigenous in Russia Facing Environmental and Resource Rights Problems Articles Press Releases Reports Links ... In The News By Oleksandr Byelyakov and Sibyl Diver All photos by Sibyl Diver. Indigenous Activists take a break in the Canadian Wilderness. Six Russian indigenous leaders and representatives from the Xaxl'ip Nation in British Columbia, Canada, peered down the sheer Fraser riverbanks at the sacred fishing rocks, where Xaxl'ip community members gather every July to speak their language, dipnet for salmon, and prepare wind-dried fish as they have for thousands of years. This tradition is now threatened by logging concessions, river contamination, and a declining salmon population. This visit was part of a two-week exchange bringing Russian indigenous peoples to meet their Native American and Canadian First Nation counterparts and discuss indigenous land rights and resource management which was held in the Pacific Northwest this June. The program was organized by Pacific Environment. Russian indigenous leaders discussed their own experiences in the Russian Far East and Siberia and their attempts to respond to a difficult situation. Sergei Sytchin, a Sel'kup community leader in the fishing-dependent village Ivankino in Tomsk, Siberia explained, "There are a lot of chemical enterprises in the upper reaches of the Ob' river. A study completed in the year 2000 discovered the sturgeon population has fallen by 90 percent since 1972."

Russian indigenous leaders study satellite communication for remote northern communities Arendal 23 August 1999 Representatives of Russian Arctic indigenous peoples will discuss the health and environmental challenges facing their communities with Gro Harlem Brundtland, director general of the World Health Organisation (WHO), Klaus Töpfer, executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and Tove Strand, director of Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD). Problems related to health mark the everyday life of many people in the indigenous communities, and hazardous chemical emissions from countries further south threaten health and nature in the long term. The meetings are taking place Monday 23 August at GRID-Arendal, a UNEP office specialising in distributing environmental information about the Arctic, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary this week. GRID-Arendal has worked with RAIPON, the organisation of the Russian indigenous peoples in the North, for several years. On Tuesday 24 August the president and vice presidents of Indigenous peoples from Northern Russia (RAIPON) will discuss the potential of low earth orbit communication satellite systems to help them deal with many problems facing their communities at a meeting in Arendal.

Russian Indigenous Peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East [RAIPON] Perspectives On Climate Changes Observations
Tatjana K. Vlassova, Ph.D- RAIPON expert
Leader of the NorthSets Project, Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Geography
Summary paper prepared on the basis of the Report at Snowchange 2002 Conference, Tampere, supported by Tampere Polytechnic with assistance from Prof. Henry Huntington (the leading author of the ACIA monograph). The Russian Association of the Indigenous Peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East (RAIPON) since 2000 has become widely engaged in the issues of climate change through the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment Initiative (Washington 2000, Sankt-Petersburg, 2001), Canadian Summit on Climate Change (2001, Whitehorse), European Commission Joint Research Centre " EU-Russia-Canada-US Arctic Workshop" (2001), several seminars, organised by Russian NGOs devoted to the discussion of the Kyoto protocol, etc. It is a pity, that not too many representatives from indigenous peoples communities can come and participate in all these events. Now we are here at the Snowchange Workshop in Tampere. No special, precise investigation on the impacts of climate change on traditional lifestyle of indigenous communities has been done done in Russia and the awareness of the most indigenous peoples (especially those migrated and previously resettled to larger settlements and being not engaged in traditional livelihood, where all changes happening in Nature are extremely important) about possible consequences of climate change in the Arctic is very low.

Beginning in January 2003, I will be a full-time Assistant Professor (tenure track) in the Anthropology Department at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. My dissertation was based on 14 months of ethnographic fieldwork in Russia from September 1995 to December 1996, supported by a 1995-96 Fulbright Dissertation Research Abroad Fellowship and an IREX (International Research and Exchanges Board) Individual Advanced Research Fellowship. I spent five of those months in St. Petersburg and Moscow, but the other nine months were spent in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. I was based in the capital city of Anadyr', and made a two-month trip to the village of Snezhnoe. Arctic Mirrors Russia and the small peoples of the North (Ithaca : Cornell University Press, 1994).

Oakland, California
www.pacificenvironment.org
Good morning. Thank you for having me here today. I would like to especially thank the conference organizers World Information Transfer for making this information exchange possible. I'd like to begin with a prayer from my friend and colleague Nadezhda Novik of the Keto People in Northern Siberia. "We are thankful for the strong awareness we have of our destiny on this small, blue planet Earth: we are nature's protectors. It is not in vain that my grandfather once spoke this prayer, and my mother repeats it today, 'We thank Mother Earth for that which she gives us, her children - the forest and the river: they feed us, quench our thirst, clothe and shod us! We thank the heavens for its children - the sun, stars, and moon, for they light the way for our hunters! We thank the fire in our hearth, for it warms our family and our home! Our door is always open to those people with good hearts and pure minds! We present a deep bow to life!' " From Nadia's words, you can get a sense of the strong, balanced connection between Russian indigenous peoples and the environment. Even today, many Russian indigenous peoples are still practicing traditional, sustainable resource use. However, environmental contaminants are polluting traditional territories and accumulating in animals used as traditional foods. Thus, we find that in practicing traditional use, Russian indigenous communities are becoming one of the first human casualties of industrial environmental pollution. Pollution that is, in fact, impacting us all.

Name: Zinaida Strogalshikova
Expert Profile
Profile by: Lucy Mulenkei
Russia Zinada Strogalshikova is from the Vepsy indigenous people from Russia and comes from a very humble background. Born in an indigenous setting, as a child she heard the word "education" many times and this made her try her best to go to school. She wanted to be a success and a role model to all other indigenous children in her community. She wanted to make a difference, and most of all make her family proud. She succeeded, and continued to advance her studies to the university level where she studied ethnology in the hope of discovering the indigenous peoples of Russia and helping them. She continues her studies and work on the traditional culture of her people, and now works in the scientific center in Carelia, her hometown. Listening to Zinaida, speaking softly but with a lot of power, you see wisdom in her. The Russian indigenous peoples are proud to work closely with her for their advancement in their territories. There are many challenges ahead, especially in that many indigenous peoples do not yet know of the establishment of the Permanent Forum and its objectives. But even the fact of its establishment is very important for indigenous peoples, especially today, when new government policies are being formulated. For many years Zinaida has worked on indigenous issues and it is very clear to her that her people want self-determination. She has helped her community in the publication of a newspaper and other publications to create an awareness of their issues. Because of her advocacy work with indigenous peoples for many years, she was nominated by her people to Parliament for two terms for 8 years. She headed a committee working on national systems and indigenous peoples, with a main focus on their legal status in agriculture and community life. She worked to legitimize the self-determination of indigenous peoples and lands. This also includes the right to education, health, culture and development. She was aware of all that she presented in Parliament which made the government approve the access of information for indigenous peoples, the result of a long-time struggle. Her presence in parliament has heightened awareness of indigenous issues in a country that is facing many changes.

Discussion on Operational Policy (OP 4.10) of the World Bank concerning Indigenous Peoples, October 2001
Information about consultations held in Khabarovsk, Moscow and Nar’yan Mar
Prepared by: Rodion Sulyandziga Director of the Russian Indigenous Peoples of the North Training Centre (RITC) Khabarovsk - 1-3 October 2001 There is still no full account of the consultations available. Information is awaited from the Regional Association of Indigenous Peoples in Khabarovskii Krai (President – GM Volkova), as well as from the World Bank representatives. At present there is available only a short version from a World Bank representative (Sergei Artobolevskii, Coordinator of the World Bank Russian office). We attach an extract: Taking part in the meeting were the Association of Indigenous Numerically-small Peoples of the North (AKMNS) of Khabarovskii Krai (Coordinator GM Volkova, AKMNS President), World Bank representatives (Coordinator Artobolevskii), regional NGOs and the press. The World Bank is satisfied with the progress and work of the consultation held in Khabarovsk. The indigenous organisations (AKMNS) played an active part in the meetings which took place and were one of the organisers of the meetings. The meetings aroused a lively interest among indigenous people. The meeting with representatives of the regional authorities (Deputy Governor) and the local Duma of Khabarovskii Krai also aroused definite interest, but the discussions were less about the Operational Policy (OP) of the World Bank than about its implementation and about practical steps. A good deal of questions were put especially about regional legislation. The local Duma is ready to consider and introduce legislation in accordance with the World Bank’s demands. The World Bank is preparing two projects for implementation in Khabarovskii Krai. (?)
