Globalisation opens opportunities to ethnic communities that are denied by the strict borders of Nation States and creates a greater possibility for communication and alliance, according to the experts Eduardo Bascuña and John W. Durston.

Before the signing, Mapuche and environmental demonstrators threw eggs and paint at La Moneda, and shouted at the indigenous representatives entering the building, calling them sellouts. Seven people were arrested, according to police. Protesters were especially angry that the pact makes no mention of the Mapuche communities' principal demand: the return of their ancestral lands. Mapuche communities have clashed in recent weeks with logging companies in southern Chile, who they say are usurping their lands. At least one of the people who attended the signing also protested; a Mapuche woman interrupted the ceremony to shout at Frei that he should "return our lands to us."

Here are some of the global flashpoints of native struggle. To read the story from each country, click on one of the countries highlighted below. UNITED STATES Big Mountain Background: About 150,000 Navajo live in the Big Mountain area of Arizona on land bordering Utah, New Mexico and Colorado. In the middle of the Navajo’s 17 million acres is a 640,000 acre Hopi reservation. The Navajo and Hopi have peacefully shared a 1.8 million acre Joint Use Area (JUA) for years. Aggression: A pro-development Hopi Tribal Council, with connections to the mining industry, initiated a lawsuit to gain title to the JUA. In 1974 the US Congress passed the Navajo-Hopi Land Settlement Act which stipulated that all Navajo (about 10,000) on the JUA would be relocated by 1986; so far 7,000 Navajo have been moved. The 40,000 acres set aside for resettlement are on the Puerco River - which was heavily contaminated by a 1979 nuclear waste spill. A legislated 90% reduction in Navajo livestock (mostly sheep) has severely affected the native economy and way of life.

During the meeting we examined how the idea of the Permanent Forum had progressed since it was presented in the Global Conference on Human Rights in Vienna in 1993. We also shared information on the process of monitoring and participation which the indigenous representatives have undergone with the Permanent Forum. We were also informed of the resolution taken by the Human Rights Council, its ratification by the Economic and Social Council ECOSOC and its adoption by the United Nations' General Assembly. After having exchanged and analysed various points of view on the course the Permanent Forum is taking, the participating organisations identified their lack of participation in its progression. However, in response to this reflection we confirmed our resolve to participate in the process of making eligible indigenous representation as South America proposes and from this moment forth we will take an active role in the development of the Permanent Forum's activities.

From Alaska to Baja California to the San Andreas Islands of Colombia, from the Saami region of Scandinavia to Siberia to the Maluccas of Indonesia, and from across Africa and Australia, such representatives spoke of abuses ranging from proscription of traditional languages to usurpation of lands to genocide, while suggesting means for the new Forum to promote their common rights in a draft Declaration and throughout the United Nations system. Representatives of some United Nations Member States were also present to listen and contribute their perspectives. A common theme that ran through the discussion today was that general notions of human rights, as well as existing human rights instruments, could serve as a framework for indigenous rights.

GENEVA, 8 April (UN Information Service) The Commission on Human Rights this morning started its discussion of indigenous issues, hearing statements from the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of indigenous people as well as Representatives of the Board of Trustees of the United Nations Voluntary Fund for Indigenous Populations; the Working Group on a draft Declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples; and the Advisory Group of the United Nations Voluntary Fund for the International Decade of the World’s Indigenous People. Rodolfo Stavenhagen, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights and fundamental freedoms of indigenous people, said the human rights of indigenous peoples continued to be violated in many countries.  There was an urgent need to adopt the United Nations draft Declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples.  The discrimination indigenous peoples suffered from was a cause for concern, particularly in the administration of justice, which was his theme for this year.  He had also carried out missions to Chile and Mexico Chile and Mexico spoke as concerned countries, and

Item 106: "Programme of activities of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous People" Third Committee Statement by Ambassador Cristián Maquieira, Deputy Permanent Representative of Chile to the United Nations New York, October 17, 2002 Mr. Chairman, I should like first of all to thank the Secretary-General for the comprehensive report presented to us in document A/57/395, which updates us on recent developments in the programme of activities of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous People. Mr. Chairman, Chile has participated actively in the early stages and in the evolution of this topic both in the Sub-Commission on the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights and in the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, as well as its inclusion in the series of global conferences, particularly the World Conference Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Forms of Intolerance, through political declarations and plans of action in which the indigenous issue has been taken up as an aspect of integral development. The task ahead is to translate this political commitment of the international community into concrete action. To this end, Chile has used the forums available in the international system for the benefit of indigenous peoples. This has contributed to the strengthening of public institutions in this field, to better protection for the rights of our indigenous communities and to the improvement of their living conditions.

@import "css/estilos_w3c_bak.css"; The Mapuches Cultural Links Photos of Beneficiaries Español Search this site Home Beneficiaries The Mapuches General Characteristics Obviously it is impossible to capture every trait of a race of people. The following list is a simple attempt to identify several of the most prominent, characteristics that illustrate the Mapuche culture: A profound feeling of attachment to the land and the nature. A simple illustration of this is through the word “mapuche”, which in mapudungum, their indigenous language, means "people of the land". The word “mapu” or land is essential to the Mapuche culture since it is inextricably linked to the supernatural and the sacred. To Mapuches, land is not the property of any one individual but instead is an asset shared by the whole community. Mapudungum is often still the traditional language spoken in rural communities and at official communal gatherings. Work is often carried out in a communal fashion, involving the entire community and maintaining strong family ties. Many Mapuches still participate in “mingakos” or work collectives in order to assist a member of the community during harvest time. Traditional wooden houses with thatched roofs, “rukas” are still used by many indigenous families for daily meals and special occasions.

The globalization of free trade in and of itself promotes a neo colonialism, which, in contrast to yesterday's colonialism, today's affects not only indigenous people and nations, but also vast sectors of the world population-including the colonists of yesteryear.

This small drama however illustrated one of the key issues of the next fifty years. If the last half of the twentieth century was a period of so-called decolonization everywhere - that is, the end of colonial rule by European powers over non-European territories - it is now the turn of the "internally colonized" to make their voices heard. The Vice-President, now President, announced that he would continue the economic policies against which CONAIE was protesting, and that he would seek to punish the army rebels. The U.S. government promptly recognized the new government. The head of CONAIE emerged from hiding briefly to announce that the army had betrayed CONAIE by breaking their solemn promises, that he would seek to negotiate with the new President, but that if, within 3-6 months, there were no changes, the situation might well deteriorate into civil war.

International Indian Treaty Council CONSEJO INTERNACIONAL DE TRATADOS INDIOS “WORKING FOR THE RIGHTS AND RECOGNITION OF INDIGENOUS PEOPLES" INDIGENOUS YOUTH DECLARATION Americas WCAR Prepcom, Santiago Chile, December 2000 The lack of recognition of Indigenous Peoples as Peoples is a form of racial discrimination that profoundly affects us as indigenous youth. We therefore demand on the part of the States the recognition of the existence of Indigenous Peoples as such taking into account articles 1 of the Pact of Political and Civil Rights and of the Pact of Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights. In addition, it is a reality that governments and civil society offer very few opportunities for the participation of indigenous youth. In the same way, international conferences and gatherings provide little or no spaces for our participation. We therefore recomend that the participation, consultation, and perspectives of the vunerable populations in America, especially indigenous young people who are one of the most marginalized sectors of society, are taken into account in national and international gatherings. We demand the immediate implementation of the oral history of our Peoples in all levels of formal education.
