    Extractions: Source: The Library of Congress Country Studies An upsurge in native discontent and rebellion had actually begun to occur in the eighteenth century. To survive their brutal subjugation, the indigenous peoples had early on adopted a variety of strategies but were never as passive as portrayed in the scholarly literature until recently. To endure, the native Americans did indeed have to adapt to Spanish domination. As often as not, however, they found ways of asserting their own interests. After the conquest, the crown had assumed from the Incas patrimony over all native land, which it granted in usufruct to indigenous community families, in exchange for tribute payments and mita labor services. This system became the basis for a long-lasting alliance between the colonial state and the native communities, bolstered over the years by the elaboration of a large body of protective legislation. Crown officials, such as the corregidores de indios , were charged with the responsibility of protecting natives from abuse at the hands of the colonists, particularly the alienation of their land to private landholders. Nevertheless, the colonists and their native allies, the

    Extractions: T The current attempts to usurp traditional knowledge are thus only the latest manifestation of the piecemeal subversion of historical rights to land and natural resources. The challenges before Diana Pombo and Pedro Garcia, the two activists profiled this month, are formidable. For they are engaged not only in correcting centuries of injustice but also in converting attitudes and prejudices that have hardened into concrete blocks of resistance. Deforestation and Forest Communities: Contours of the Predicament In 1980 a study by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimated that world forests were disappearing at the alarming rate of nearly 114,000 square kilometres a year. Ominous? Evidently not: A study by F.A.O. in 1992 put the rate at a staggering 170,000 square kilometres a year, an increase of nearly 54 percent.

    Extractions: Location Map "I awoke to gunshots, thinking a war had begun," Pedro Garcia said of his first morning in Peru's dense Amazonian jungle near the border with Ecuador, "but it was only the Aguaruna men out hunting." In 1970, Pedro and a group of like-minded friends jumped at the chance to experience "the freedoms the jungle represented," compared with a Spain still under the dictatorial thumb of Francisco Franco. Fresh out of university, he had degrees in law and political science, and additional studies in psychology and communication science, and "no expertise in anything," he says. Raised in a family with a strong social conscience, which gave him "a community mentality," Pedro came to Peru "with the idea of forming a cooperative." He did, a number of them, and many other grassroots organizations, too. For 14 years Pedro remained along the Cenepa and Maranon Rivers working among the Aguaruna and Huambisa ethnic groups scattered throughout Peru's northeastern jungle, several days by dugout canoe from the nearest town, "but one day with 40 horsepower outboard, if you were lucky enough to have one."

We were in Global Caucus deliberations for hours in effort to come to consensus on our strategies. Our delegations are weighted with the choice of how to respond to the negotiating process. Our greatest difficulty is knowing truly the machine we are dealing with. As we each define our purpose in the values of our futures through the foundation within each of us instilled by our ancestors. We have found great frustrations in this stand to remain integral to our collective principles, our individual principles and most important the principles of our people at home. Our diversity of struggle is somewhat defined by our regions and the governments both in military occupation of us and in relation to our geographic positions. Our drafting committee was charged by our Global Caucus to draft the earlier statement based upon the hundreds of points presented by our body throughout the day. We felt finally that it served our position well.

The FPP has never received any reply from you nor from your office to that written representation. The purpose of this second letter is to inform you, as UK representative on the board of the IADB, that the Forest Peoples Programme is extremely disappointed to learn that the Inter-American Development Bank approved a loan for the total of US$ 135 million to Peru's Camisea Gas Project. The severe environmental and social problems tied to this project have lead national and international civil society groups to repeatedly exhort the IADB to withhold its financing, and yet, despite many other potential funders pulling out due to unresolved human rights and environmental concerns (see below), the IADB pushed this loan through with no heed to its constituents. We would like to express our particular astonishment that the European Executive Directors approved the loan in spite of the United States ED abstaining, citing inadequacies in the IADBs environmental and social oversight and conditions and the projects environmental and social management. In addition, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the United States Export-Import Bank and, as we have recently learned, the ABN-AMRO, have all rejected financing for this project. In addition, Citigroup withdrew as financial advisors to the project last year.

    Extractions: Violence and threats of eviction against the Ashaninka Churinashi community, Atayala Province, Peru March 2004 Dear Friends, Below is a letter addressed to the President of Peru, urging him to deal with the serious situation faced by the Ashaninka community of Churinashi in the country’s Atayala Province in the Amazon region. The situation for this community is a very urgent one and requires your help to put pressure on the President, in order to stop the violence and threats of eviction the community are under at the moment. The Consorcio Forestal Amazonico, one of the largest logging consortia in Peru, has been granted a concession on the Churinashi community’s territory, without consultation of any sort, and has used manipulation, corruption and violence to try to remove the community from its ancestral home. The unstable and potentially dangerous situation in the area is one of violence and intimidation, and a recent resolution passed by the judicial authorities of the Atayala Province notifies the local indigenous organisation of the imminent use of the ‘public forces’ should they not resettle away from the concession. The AIDESEP, a regional Amazonian indigenous organisation, has asked that their campaign be supported as widely as possible, and therefore respectfully ask supporters to send a letter to President Toledo, cc-ing it to the Minister for Agriculture, Mr. Leon, asking him to support the demands of the representative indigenous organisations, including:
