Report of WGPI 98) IV. STUDY ON TREATIES, AGREEMENTS AND OTHER CONSTRUCTIVE ARRANGEMENTS BETWEEN STATES AND INDIGENOUS POPULATIONS The Special Rapporteur on treaties, agreements and other constructive arrangements between States and indigenous populations, Prof. Miguel Alfonso Martinez, presented his final report on this matter to the Working Group. He said that he has been working on this study for nine years. He continued by stating that this work has been extremely challenging and interesting, and that it has changed his view on many important matters. The study has introduced new ideas and offered him the opportunity to explore new ways of thinking. Moreover, that it has given him the opportunity to view new dimensions of issues concerning indigenous peoples. The Special Rapporteur apologized for the delay of his submission of the final report and for the fact that the report is available in English only. He thanked a number of individuals who have assisted him in his work, in particular his consultant Dr. Isabelle Schulte-Tenckhoff. He also expressed his gratitude to the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights for its valuable support to his work. The Special Rapporteur invited all participants to comment on the report and his conclusions and recommendations. He said that he will highly welcomeall critical opinions that may arise during the debate that will be held on the contents of this final report.

Over 200 African women, men and young people from 40 countries participated. They represented social movements, trade unions, peasants' organizations, NGOs and research institutions. We reaffirmed our opposition to and rejection of the global neo-liberal system, its institutions and clubs, namely, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, the G 8 and the World Economic Forum. Presentations were made on various thematic issues, including international trade, privatization, debt, the African Union, wars and conflicts, agriculture, the question of food security; health; African cultures, etc. Following the discussions and debates on these issues we reaffirmed our strong conviction, contained in the Declaration made by the first African Social Forum(ASF), held in Bamako (Mali), that

Indigenous and tribal peoples are often in a numerical minority living under national laws that do not address their specific situations, characteristics and needs. The ILO believes that indigenous peoples need not only their rights as workers and their right to decent work promoted and protected, but also their right to be protected from all forms of exploitation and discrimination. The ILO became involved in the plight of indigenous peoples through its examination of forced labour conditions among so-called ‘native populations’ in colonies in the 1920s – indigenous and tribal peoples were often part of the colonial workforce. The same impulse that gave rise to the ILO’s Forced Labour Convention, led to standards and development work on indigenous and tribal peoples and the adoption of the only two international instruments (then and today) relating exclusively to indigenous and tribal peoples: the

BACK TO MAIN ONLINE BOOKSTORE HOW TO ORDER Globalisation and tourism: Deadly mix for indigenous peoples Indigenous peoples are paying a high price for tourism, says Raymond de Chavez. In their drive for profits, transnational corporations which dominate the international tourist industry have, with the complicity of governments (particularly those of the Third World), devastated the lives and lifestyles of indigenous peoples. The process of globalisation will only exacerbate their plight. GLOBALISATION and tourism have become a deadly mix for indigenous peoples. Tourism's impact on indigenous peoples' way of life and on their control of and access to their resources and environment has become more pronounced with globalisation of the world economy. For several decades now, tourism has been a major source of revenue for countries, specifically in the Third World. Its growth has been nothing short of phenomenal. In the 1950s, 25 million people travelled to a foreign destination. In the 1960s, this grew to 70 million. By 1997, 617 million tourists had been reported by the Madrid-based World Tourism Organisation to have travelled to foreign countries. The World Tourism Organisation has even predicted that by the 21st century, tourist arrivals would have reached billions annually. It foresees that by the year 2010, 1 billion tourists would have travelled abroad and by 2020, this would have increased to 1.6 billion.

RESEARCHING INDIGENOUS PEOPLES RIGHTS UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW Steven C. Perkins This is a revision of a document prepared for presentation at the 1992 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Law Libraries. It may be reproduced for non-profit educational use if this notice appears on the reproduction. Current International Indigenous Legal News Table of Contents I: Introduction Background Definitions Legal Arguments Present Activities ... Self Determination INTRODUCTION This paper was originally produced in 1992, prior to the INTERNET and the explosion of information it has engendered. In updating it, I have tried to create links to online materials on indigenous peoples rights under international law. This paper is not meant to be a comprehensive guide to information on indigenous people. It is meant to be a guide to researching international law and indigenous peoples rights. Since this paper was finished, S James Anaya has published an excellent treatise on this area, Indigenous Peoples in International Law , New York, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1996, (ISBN 0-19-508620-1), which is recommended reading for anyone interested in the legal treatment of indigenous peoples. As is mentioned below, this paper was originally delivered as part of a program on indigenous peoples rights. Another speaker covered American Indians. Because of that, this paper's coverage of American Indians is limited.

The mental health of indigenous peoples WHO's Nations for Mental Health programme (see article , issue No. 1 of this Bulletin ) has issued a review by Dr Alex Cohen (Department of Social Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Cambridge, MA, USA) on the mental health of indigenous peoples throughout the world. As Dr Cohen explains in the introduction, the report attempts to offer: a working definition of "indigenous peoples"; an overview of the sociocultural and socioeconomic worlds in which indigenous peoples live; a survey of epidemiological information about mental health problems among indigenous peoples; recommendations on ways to support efforts by the indigenous peoples of the world to address the mental health problems they are experiencing. In general, data on the mental health of indigenous peoples are scarce; almost nothing was found on the scheduled tribes of India, the national minorities of mainland China, or the indigenous peoples of Africa. Yet it seems safe to conclude that the stressors to which indigenous peoples have been and continue to be exposed - epidemics, racism, violence, loss of territories and dislocation, high rates of morbidity and mortality - result in relatively high rates of mental disorders and behavioural problems. Substance abuse, depression and suicide appear from the literature to represent the areas of greatest need, but they cannot be separated from the social, cultural and historic contexts in which they occur. Social scientists and mental health professionals alike need to seek strategies to address the sufferings of individuals and the suffering of communities.

General Essay on the Religions of Latin America The first contingent of humans arrived in North America from Asia during the glacial age which began some 40 thousand years ago. From North America they entered Central America sometime between 13 000 BCE and 7500 BCE spreading from there to South America. Relatively little is known about the inhabitants of Latin America during this period since our knowledge about them is based solely on excavations. However, despite the early arrival of people in Central and South America it was not until 2000 BCE that the first permanent villages showing some kind of social organisation appeared, leading to the formation of high civilisations and social stratification such as the Olmecs that flourished around 1300 BCE or the Mayas that appeared in the first millenium BCE. The settlements in Latin America varied immensely from one place to another. While societies such as the Inca of the Andes and the Maya, Olmec and Aztec of Central America developed a high level of culture, others kept a rather tribal structure. Generalisation about these cultures is, therefore, problematic. In spite of these differences it is possible to identify certain common characteristics in both high civilizations and tribal societies such as animism, a cult of ancestors and continuity between religion and political power. In some societies the mediation between the supernatural and the natural was done through a hierarchically organized body of priests, in other societies a more democratic kind of shamanistic practice was stronger.

At least 2 500 environmental experts and scientists are attending the congress, currently under way at Durban's International Convention Centre, to forge the way forward to sustain the world's protected areas. The indigenous people's coalition, comprising representatives of communities from Africa, Latin America, Canada and Northern Europe, have also issued a declaration denouncing the forced expulsion and systematic exclusion of indigenous people from their territories through the creation of protected areas and parks. The declaration calls on conservation agencies and environmental organisations to respect the internationally recognised rights of these population groups, including their inherent right to self-determination.

The Secretary-General has repeatedly warned Israel, including yesterday via his Middle East envoy, that it must abide by its obligations as an occupying power, which include protecting the civilian population and eschewing the disproportionate or indiscriminate use of force.
