Many indigenous people feel ignored and marginalised The study - published to mark the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples - says that a decade-long United Nations campaign to promote the rights of these people has brought little improvement. Poor access to safe clean water, sanitation and health services are just a few of the many problems highlighted in the report, jointly-published by the British-based charity Health Unlimited and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The UN broadly defines indigenous people as descendants of those who inhabited land which was then taken over by people from a different ethnic origin. The latest report has found that indigenous people - who mostly live in remote areas too costly to be reached by services - still feel ignored and marginalised.

Answers to Questions on Native Peoples of Tropical Rainforests WHO ARE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE? IN GENERAL, HOW DO INDIGENOUS PEOPLE LIVE? FOOD EDUCATION ... GLOSSARY Q: WHO ARE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE? A: Tropical rainforests are bursting with life. Not only do millions of species of plants and animals live in rainforests, but many people also call the rainforest their home. In fact, Indigenous, or native, people have lived in rainforests for thousands of years. In North and South America they were mistakenly named Indians by Christopher Columbus, who thought that he had landed in Indonesia, then called the East Indies. Q: IN GENERAL, HOW DO INDIGENOUS PEOPLE LIVE? A: Although many Indigenous people live much like we do, some still live as their ancestors did many years before them. These groups organize their daily lives differently than our culture. Everything they need to survive, from food to medicines to clothing, comes from the forest. FOOD Besides hunting, gathering wild fruits and nuts and fishing, Indigenous people also plant small gardens for other sources of food, using a sustainable farming method called shifting cultivation. First they first clear a small area of land and burn it. Then they plant many types of plants, to be used for food and medicines. After a few years, the soil has become too poor to allow for more crops to grow and weeds start to take over. So they then move to a nearby uncleared area. This land is traditionally allowed to regrow for 10-50 years before it is farmed again.

Protecting Indigenous Peoples' Privacy from "Eyes in the Sky" Wayne Madsen Lead Scientist Computer Sciences Corporation Integrated Systems Division Falls Church, Virginia Abstract 1. Introduction In his famous dissenting opinion in Olmstead v. U.S., 277 U.S. 438 (1928) , Justice Louis Brandeis called the right to be let alone "the most comprehensive of rights and the right most cherished by civilized men." Justice Brandeis's ruling could just as easily apply to the right of indigenous peoples to be let alone from intrusive central government "development" and surveillance programs. The increasing use of satellites to survey lands and oceans for natural resources comes at the expense of many indigenous peoples to freely conduct various activities on their ancestral lands. Many indigenous tribes maintain a certain kinship with the territory upon which they live. This kinship runs deep and in some cases has an important religious significance for the people concerned. 2. Geographic Information Systems (GISs) and Indigenous Lands Indian leaders contend that those who operate GISs must be sensitive to the traditions surrounding their lands. Many Indian tribes feel that certain data must remain private and not be released to the general public. Data security and privacy controls therefore become problematic. Tribal officials such as the Colville Confederacy leadership feel that certain data cannot be treated as regular data. Information on hunting and gathering areas has a spiritual significance for the Indians that is perhaps unappreciated by statisticians in cold, gray and distant computer rooms (Marchand and Winchell, 1994, 51).

Just over 80 years ago, Haudenosaunee Chief Deskaheh travelled from Canada to Geneva to tell the League of Nations about the right of his people to live on their own land, follow their own laws and practise their own faiths.  Chief Deskaheh was refused permission to speak and had to return home without accomplishing his mission.  But his vision has inspired countless indigenous leaders since then to articulate and pursue the goals of their peoples.  You and we have come a long way since then. For far too long the hopes and aspirations of indigenous peoples have been ignored; their lands have been taken; their cultures denigrated or directly attacked; their languages and customs suppressed; their wisdom and traditional knowledge overlooked; and their sustainable ways of developing natural resources dismissed.  Some have even faced the threat of extinction.

Home to nearly 15 million indigenous peoples - mostly nomadic - and with a wealth of plant and animal species, the protection of Africa's peoples and its rich biodiversity is vital to the future of life on Earth. Throughout history, Africa has been blighted by colonisation, natural disasters and political unrest. Floods, hurricanes, droughts, famine and civil war stretch back centuries. In the last five years, Onaway has established contacts whose function is to address the ongoing plight of the indigenes whilst ensuring that traditional cultures remains intact. Our main focus is to support sustainable projects with environmentally-sound aims, improve the health of the people whilst providing spiritual upliftment to the whole community.
