Kakuma-Turkana
T his book has touched the hearts of many with divergent backgrounds from around the world and across social, political, religious and economic backgrounds. It is a tribute to those portrayed here, both the refugees at Kakuma Camp and the indigenous peoples of Turkana. FROM THE DUST JACKET Daniel’s photographs bring awareness to an enormous suffering, sustained in dignity by these amazing people. I pray his passion influences a new generation to demand social and political change. OLIVER STONE is an Academy Award-winning filmmaker who has garnered critical acclaim for his wide-ranging films of social commentary. He first met Dan in August 2000 at Kakuma Refugee Camp. From a personal level, I am drawn to Danny’s work as our family lived in Kenya while I was a young girl and its people hold a special place in my heart. Danny’s photographs stand alone, however, and tell an important story. His powerful images bridge us as humans. The depth of the pictures pushes us beyond the expected differences and transports us to the unexpected—-to our very humanness. ANN BANCROFT is a polar explorer, Bancroft-Arneson Expedition - Antarctica, American Women’s Expedition to Antarctica and Steger International Expedition to the North Pole—the first woman in history to cross the ice to the North and South Poles. The Ann Bancroft Foundation works to help girls and women realize their highest dreams and potential.

Beyond "participation": indigenous peoples, biological diversity conservation and protected area management
M. Colchester Marcus Colchester is Director of the Forest Peoples Programme of the World Rain forest Movement. Chadlington, United Kingdoms Attempts to involve local communities in protected area management usually fail when initiated and directed by outsiders. This article focuses on some of The fundamental issues related to indigenous peoples and natural resource conservation. Western concepts of humankind's place in nature underlie the premises of wilderness conservation and present obstacles to indigenous residents. Imposed conservationist visions have led to forced relocation, impoverishment, human rights abuse and a breakdown of traditional systems of resource management. Conservation organizations are adopting new policies for working with indigenous peoples but, at the same time, top-down conservation and global environmental management by large development agencies threaten to reverse this progress. Conservationists need to develop new means of accountability to ensure that indigenous peoples' needs and rights are respected.
Classical conservation
The roots of conservation lie very deep in historical views of humankind's place in nature. However, whereas in recent years there has been an increasing acceptance of the value of indigenous knowledge systems as providing effective means of regulating human interaction with the environment, there has been much less scrutiny of the degree to which "scientific" notions of nature conservation have been shaped by Western cultural traditions and political economies.

Shedding light on the plight of refugees, indigenous people
by Lucy Y. Her, StarTribune staff reporter As a boy, Daniel Cheng Yang would ask his father to tell him stories about life in Laos. The 8-year-old would sit across from his father and listen to what it was like to live in the jungle, running and hiding from the Laotian government after the Vietnam War. Like many Hmong, Daniel's father had fought for U.S. forces against Communists in Laos during the war. William Yang eventually made his way to a refugee camp in Thailand. "In the camp, you have no hope, you have no future," his father told him. The stories stayed with Daniel, of St. Paul, and they shaped him into an 18-year-old who's so committed to shedding light on the plight of refugees and other struggling people that he traveled to Africa several times by himself, even taking some time off school, to document their conditions. Such is the focus of his book, "Kakuma Turkana Dueling Struggles: Africa's Forgotten Peoples," which will be published in August. The book is a compilation of 75 black-and-white photos of the Turkana people of remote northwestern Kenya and of refugees who live nearby in the Kakuma Refugee Camp. In each photo, Daniel shows how the Turkanas' way of life is surviving despite the influx of more than 81,000 refugees from war-torn Sudan and Uganda. The camp, which was opened in 1992, is bringing in people whose cultures clash with the Turkana and who are competing for scarce resources, such as water and land.

The end of the briefing provides details where further information can be obtained. The importance of a strong safeguard policy on Indigenous Peoples The World Bank’s policy on Indigenous Peoples is of crucial importance for indigenous peoples because it will determine how Bank staff and borrower governments deal with indigenous communities affected by their development projects and programmes. Mandatory provisions that respect indigenous peoples’ rights are very important because they provide affected indigenous peoples with a clear mechanism to raise concerns with Bank staff, implementing agencies and, if problems continue, with the Bank’s Inspection Panel. It is also important to realise that a strong and useful Indigenous Peoples Policy underpins the effectiveness and credibility of other key safeguards including the Bank’s Involuntary Resettlement, Environmental Assessment and Forests policies

DICTIONARY TAINO INDIGENOUS
PEOPLES OF THE CARIBBEAN
This dictionary of words of the indigenous peoples of caribbean is from the encyclopedia "Clásicos de Puerto Rico, second edition, publisher, Ediciones Latinoamericanas. S.A., 1972" It was compiled by Puerto Rican historian Dr. Cayetano Coll y Toste of the "Real Academia de la Historia." He describes as "vocabulario indo-antillano." It may possibly be the most comprehensive collection of Taino words ever compiled and it is well documented. For the purpose of clarification, Dr. Coll y Toste includes words which have been incorporated into language, but are not Taino. An example is Mabí, which is of African derivation.
I do not know if this encyclopedia is still in print, but I highly reccomend it. If it all can be obtained do it. Aside from the dictionary, Coll y Toste's writing is descriptive, well documened, and wonderful reading. The remainder of the encyclopedia, seven volumes in all, is a treasure of Puerto Rican history and culture.
If I may offer a word of advice. Please do not take this dictionary (or anyone else's work) as "Gospel." Though Dr. Coll y Toste does a fine job, as you will find, many times he disagrees with the findings of others who had previously documented these same words. Most of his disagreements center on spelling and pronunciation, not meaning.

Introduction
Tasks Process ... Conclusion
Introduction As European powers gained a foothold in various regions of the African continent in the nineteenth century, citizens from their respective countries took up the challenge of colonization. What followed was a period of intense competition among European powers for territorial domination and increased tensions among competing European powers as they clashed over protecting their imperialistic acquisitions in Africa, India, the Middle East, and Asia.

Definition of Aboriginal Whaling
To date, aboriginal peoples have been 'willing' to accept that there needs to be international management of their hunts to make sure that whale populations survive into the future and so, implicitly, ensure their own survival. However, things are beginning to change.
Since 1995, we have seen the declared intention of the Makah (US citizens of American Indian decent) campaigning for the right to resume hunting gray whales of the North West Pacific coast of the continental USA. They are arguing that they do not have to fulfil the definition of indigenous whaling promulgated by the world community through the IWC, but should be allowed to kill up to ten gray whales for 'cultural' reasons alone. The Makah Tribal Council have also made statements that they will be seeking to export whale meat in the near future.
In December of 1996 members of the New Zealand Maori 'Treaty Fisheries Commission' made claims that they should be able to engage in trade in whale meat with Japan, stating that the IWC's definition of indigenous whaling was both 'arrogant and primitive'. (The Evening Post - New Zealand 21/12/96). The 'Fisheries Commission went on to assert that they were 'seeking to join an international body made up of indigenous and coastal "community-based whale users", which included Norwegian and Japanese members'.
