    Extractions: IDRC’s research program centres on three broad areas of enquiry: social and economic equity; environmental and natural resource management; and information and communication technologies for development . In focus in these areas, IDRC plays close attention to governance, the translation of research results into policy decisions, and to gender issues in development. Research related to social and economic equity is the largest focus of IDRC’s support in the region. Because many of the region’s problems have concrete manifestations in urban settings where most of the population lives, urban issues are also a priority, using community-based approaches linked to policy frameworks.

Many evaluation activities are going on at the global, regional and national levels, to assess the fulfillment of goals and to define future agendas. At the end of April 2000 the World Education Forum took place in Dakar, Senegal. The results of the EFA Assessment were presented and a new Declaration and Framework for Action for the year 2015 were adopted. In this context and at this moment, a group of Latin American educators and intellectuals wish to share with other colleagues and with the international educational community some concerns and reflections from Latin America.

    Extractions: Meetings Over 200 representatives of local committees and national organizations attended the second Latin America Solidarity Conference on March 17th and 18th at the International Conference Center in Chicago. They agreed that all would emphasize in their work for the next period: 1) confronting the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA), which would be a NAFTA treaty for the entire Western Hemisphere; and 2) opposing militarization of the hemisphere (including opposing Plan Colombia; stopping the bombing of Vieques, Puerto Rico; closing the successor to the School of the Americas; and stopping the so-called “drug war” including the placing of bases in Latin American countries). The Conference was a two-day strategy session in which attendees worked to prepare documents and action plans in eleven different workshops on: militarization, trade, indigenous issues, human rights, environmental justice, globalization, labor rights, democracy, women’s issues, immigration, and agricultural concerns. Besides prioritizing work on the FTAA and militarization, they promised to join the projects that groups were already working on including protesting at the World Bank and IMF meetings in September, stopping the Bush nominations of Otto Reich and John Negroponte, supporting IFCO/Pastors for Peace caravans to Cuba, Chiapas and Central America, endorsing a general call for unconditional amnesty for undocumented workers, supporting the release of Lori Berenson and other political prisoners in Peru, and working with organizations representing poor people and the indigenous here in the U.S. as well as in Latin America.

"Oh," the friend said, surprise in her voice. "Your mother is white." She turned to Martins. "But you are black." That came as news to Martins, a Brazilian who, for 30 years before immigrating to the United States, looked in the mirror and saw a morena a woman with caramel-colored skin that is nearly equated with whiteness in Brazil and some other Latin American countries. "I didn't realize I was black until I came here," she said. That realization has come to hundreds of thousands of dark-complexioned immigrants to the United States from Brazil, Colombia, Panama and other Latin nations with sizable populations of African descent. Although most do not identify themselves as black, they are seen that way as soon as they set foot in North America.

    Extractions: MAX: 15 POLS, 10 LACS Description . The course is an in-depth study of authoritarian forms of government in Latin America from a political and cultural perspective. The student will be exposed to readings and discussions that will raise issues related to the roots of caudillismo, the historical evolution and changing legitimacy of dictatorship, the political alternatives that this form of power can generate (ranging from revolution to re-democratization), and the role of writers and intellectuals as critics and analysts of dictatorial politics. Special attention will be given in the second half of the course to the post-dictatorial period in Chile, Argentina, and Brazil. The readings include political articles as well as novels, cultural journalism, chronicles, testimonies, and cultural essays. Some videos will also be shown. Grading . The grade will be based on a midterm (35%), a 15 pp. research paper (45%), and an oral presentation dealing with the cultural and political context of one specific dictator or with a post-dictatorial issue (20%). The paper should focus on the materials studied in the second half of the course. The oral presentation should take no more than 20 minutes and is to be followed by questions and discussion involving other students and the instructors. As the format of the course is a seminar, students are expected to contribute to the discussions on a regular basis and to do the readings on time.

    Extractions: Sunday, July 9, 2000; Page A01 MARANKIARI BAJO, Peru –– Until a brilliantly sunny day when the Internet reached this Ashaninka Indian village in central Peru, tribal leader Oswaldo Rosas could think of few benefits modern life had brought his people. Poverty and disease had debased and decimated them since British missionaries brought the first link to the outside world 81 years ago. As recently as the early 1990s, communist guerrillas had forced some Ashaninka into slavery. Even after the Peruvian army defeated the insurgents, life in this thatched hut settlement with no electricity or running water remained a grueling struggle. It still is, but as the incongruent buzz of a computer fired up in Rosas's hutnow doubling as a tribal cybercafethe somber 30-year-old leader could not repress a smile. "This," he said, pointing to the machine, "is the first real chance they have ever given my people."
