Extractions: LUCIO GUARACHI was born in a village on Bolivia's windswept Altiplano, some 4,000 metres (13,000 feet) above sea level. Of Andean Indian descent, he speaks Aymara as well as Spanish. Since he was ten, he has lived mainly in El Alto, an ever-expanding satellite city of 700,000 people whose self-built houses of bare brick or mud and corrugated iron straggle out into the Altiplano above Bolivia's capital, La Paz. He works, when there is work, in a small workshop making water pumps. Last October, he helped to overthrow an elected president. El Alto was the scene of battles between the army and well-organised protestors that ended with at least 59 dead and the resignation of President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, a pro-American mining magnate. The ostensible motive for the protests was a scheme by multinational companies to export liquefied natural gas from Bolivia to California via Chile. But was there another factor at work? Most of the protesters were of indigenous descent. The trigger for their action lay in an obscure incident in Pucarani, a small town near Lake Titicaca. Indian followers of Felipe Quispe, a militant peasant leader, had captured two cattle rustlers; invoking indigenous traditions of justice, they beat and killed them. When police arrested his lieutenant for the crime, Mr Quispe organised roadblocks. After protestors and police were killed, matters escalated.

Extractions: Mailing List: NATIVE-L (native-l@gnosys.svle.ma.us) 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

http://www.unesco.org/dialogue/delhi/toledo_karp.html

Extractions: Mrs Dr Toledo-Karp, First Lady of Peru The indigenous peoples living in Peru today are the Quechua and Aymara speakers of the Andes, and the over fifty ethno-linguistic families living in the Amazon area. The indigenous population exceeds six million people, that is 25% of the total population of Peru. In addition to the indigenous peoples, a high percentage of the population (around 60%) is of mixed race or indigenous background, but does not recognize this because of socio-cultural prejudices. The republic developed while ignoring the great majority of indigenous and mixed race people. The breaking down of the production and culture of Perus indigenous peoples meant the destruction of traditional production methods, which had been efficient methods of redistribution that prevented the existence of the poverty and hunger we see today. The breakdown of traditional communities brought with it mass migration from the country to the cities, and consequent cultural mixing. At the start of the second half of the 20th century, the indigenous population represented more than half the population of Peru. This process implied the progressive exclusion of these peoples and consequently, their isolation and reduction in numbers, culture, economy and territory.

The indigenous people of the Peruvian jungles are being pushed off their land by an endless combination of slash-and-burn colonization, big oil companies, gold miners, timber extractors and coca-growing farmers organized by drug-trafficking barons and, at times, "revolutionary" political groups. All along the main rivers and jungle roads, settlers are flooding into the area. In their wake, forcing land title agreements to which they have no right, are the main timber companies and multinational oil corporations. In large tracts of the jungle the fragile

Extractions: Governments throughout the Americas are failing to fulfil their commitments to the region's indigenous peoples, according to a new report. The human rights group Amnesty International says America's native peoples are still one of the most marginalised and poorest communities in the world, discriminated against and often exposed to grave abuses of their fundamental human rights. Many people are forced to sleep on the streets Amnesty published the report to coincide with Columbus or Native American Day, when several countries celebrate the continent's multicultural heritage and mark the arrival in the Americas of Christopher Columbus in 1492. "Basic rights of indigenous communities, including the right to land and to cultural identity in the use of language, education and the administration of justice are systematically violated," the report says. "Racism and discrimination entrenched in most societies make indigenous people more vulnerable to human rights violations including torture and ill-treatment, 'disappearance' and unlawful killings," Amnesty argues.

Extractions: Lyon, France September 4-6, 2000 Introduction We, the Indigenous Peoples, have historically played an active role in the conservation of eco-systems crucial to the prevention of climate change such as forests, wetlands and coastal and marine areas. Long ago, our sciences foretold of the severe impacts of Western "development" models based on indiscriminate clear-cutting, oil exploitation, mining, carbon-emitting industries, permanent organic pollutants and the insatiable consumption of the industrialized countries. Today, these unsustainable models threaten the very life of Mother Earth and the lives of all of us who are her children. The scientists of Western society have dismissed us as sentimental and superstitious and accused us of being an obstacle to development. Paradoxically, those that previously turned deaf ears to our warnings, now are dismayed because their own model of "development' endangers our Mother Earth. At long last, the international community has been forced to recognize that climate change threatens the very survival of humanity. Despite the recognition of our role in preventing global warming, when it comes time to sign international conventions like the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, once again, our right to participate in national and international discussions that directly affect our Peoples and territories is denied.
