    http://www.unesco.org/op/eng/3may98/menchu.htm
    Indigenous peoples and freedom of expression Freedom of expression is a universally recognised right. Article 19 of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights states: "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers". The term "freedom of expression" implies the right to information and communication. Such a right is meaningless if one cannot obtain the information needed to form opinions and viewpoints on a subject, just as those opinions and viewpoints will be incomplete without the ability to communicate them to the rest of society. The latter point likewise implies the need to have access to the communication media, especially the mass media such as television, radio and the press. In other words, the right to information, communication and access to the media is fundamental to, and important for, freedom of expression in its fullest sense. The existence of democratic societies and of democratic systems of government is conditional upon those rights, which in their turn, as necessary aids to democratic life, constitute mechanisms that help to bring that life into being and develop it further.

    Indigenous peoples' experiences with poverty This section is based mainly on the input from the indigenous participants at the MRG workshop in Guatemala, July 2002. Bolivia In Bolivia, official figures estimate that approximately 4.2 million Bolivians (50.6 per cent of the population) are indigenous, compising 37 different indigenous and aboriginal peoples.11 Of these, most live in the Andean highlands. The institutionalized racism in the Andean region has led many indigenous people to internalize this racism and negate their indigenous identity, by changing their indigenous surnames into more 'civilized' ones, or rejecting their indigenous language. This 'whitening' process is well known in Latin America and is synonymous with social and economic elevation. As for education, a separate curriculum was specified for rural populations, building on colonial concepts of the 'civilizing' mission of the state regarding indigenous peoples. Teachers generally reproduced these state concepts, reiterating the idea that indigenous children from the highlands were 'dirty' due to their colour, and that indigenous languages should be replaced with Spanish.12 Indigenous peoples in the history of Bolivia The colonization, which started in 1527, led to the end of the powerful indigenous states in the Andean region and a catastrophic decline in the indigenous population (up to 80 per cent of the population died, mainly due to disease, war and forced labour).13 In pre-colonial times, the

    Poverty Since the UN World Social Summit in Copenhagen in 1995, poverty reduction has been recognized internationally as the main development goal. The importance of poverty reduction was reaffirmed in September 2000, when 191 nations adopted the UN Millennium Declaration. The Declaration's target regarding poverty is to reduce by half the proportion of people living on less than a dollar a day, by 2015. According to the World Development Indicators Database (2001) Nicaragua is a low-income country with an average Gross National Income (GNI) of less than US $745 per person, while Bolivia, Guatemala and Honduras are lower middle-income countries with a GNI per person ranging from US $746-2,975. Income poverty At the country level, poverty is normally based on income level. A person is considered poor if their income falls below the minimum necessary to meet basic needs. This minimum level is usually called the 'poverty line'. What is necessary to satisfy basic needs varies through time and across societies, and is country-specific. In order to measure poverty globally, the World Bank uses reference lines set at US $1 and $2 a day. In 1998, it was estimated that 1.2 billion people lived on less than US $1 a day and 2.8 billion lived on less than $2 a day.5

On the same day the parties initiated consideration of the next item on the negotiating agenda, namely "Socio-economic aspects and agrarian situation". I have asked the Director of MINUGUA to review the Agreement and assess whether additional resources will be required for verifying implementation of those commitments which relate to human rights and, therefore, fall within the mandate of MINUGUA. I shall convey my recommendations to the General Assembly shortly.

    close Indigenous Peoples and Poverty: The Cases of Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua
    Executive summary This paper addresses some of the most pressing issues for indigenous peoples in Latin America. It looks at the poverty situation of indigenous peoples in four poor countries in Latin America - Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. Despite there being little or no disaggregated data for indigenous women and men in Latin America, it can easily be concluded that indigenous peoples are disproportionately represented among the poor. Governments and donors, however, have judged indigenous peoples to be poor without asking indigenous peoples themselves how they see their situation. It may be that measured within the economic parameters of mainstream society, indigenous peoples are among the poorest but the official Poverty Maps do not necessarily reflect the real poverty situation as perceived by indigenous peoples. In some cases, poverty indicators may even reflect a discriminatory disregard for indigenous values as such, whereby expressions of indigenous identity become an indicator of poverty. Due to the current political marginalization, indigenous peoples are largely absent from the planning, design and implementation of development policies and programmes that directly affect their lives and territories. This study explains some of the impacts of this marginalization and offers a path towards an inclusive system of development.

    Indigenous Peoples Declaration

    Against the United States Invasion of Iraq
    Submitted to NativeNews by: Elsbeth Vocat Ottawa - Canada - (Posted on Apr-01-2003) The representatives of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas gathered during the second Annual Forum of Connectivity in Ottawa, Canada on March 24-26, 2003 and expressed the following: This genocide is a crime against humanity and violates international law as well as human and legal rights. This is a criminal invasion and it is killing innocent children, women and the elderly. It lacks any kind of legitimacy and cannot be justified as it violates all declarations to live in peace. It violates the self determination and sovereignty of peoples and the consensus reached by most states represented in the United Nations. The representatives of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas strongly request that all those responsible for these criminal acts be brought to the International War Crimes Court and be condemned internationally. We urge the United Nations to call for an emergency meeting of the Security Council to condemn the United States government, and its allies decision to go to war and we call for an immediate cease fire, while re-establishing diplomacy to end this conflict. Furthermore, we reject any new government imposed by the United States as it will only justify its presence in Iraq to protect its own geo- political and geo-economic interests.

    General aspects of indigenous peoples' perception of poverty Apart from providing country-specific information, the MRG consultation in Guatemala also confirmed that many indigenous peoples' experiences are similar. The same concerns are consistently raised by indigenous organizations in international processes, for example, concerning sustainable development. These issues to some extent constitute general aspects of indigenous peoples' perception of poverty in Latin America, and are discussed below: Governance and development Conflict, democracy, governance and indigenous rights Indigenous models of governance, justice and democracy were never taken into account in the construction of Latin American states, which are built on a model of citizenship that has until recently excluded indigenous peoples. All of the four countries discussed in this study have recent experiences of armed struggle, militarization or violence. In addition, the Contra War facilitated the distribution of drugs and alcohol. This had a negative impact as these communities tried to raise money to satisfy these new needs through diving for lobsters, via fisheries and the exploitation of natural resources, etc., setting aside the production of basic food items for consumption. The climate of war in Central America in the 1970s and 1980s also seriously raised poverty levels in the border areas of El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua.

    MARY GRAY DAVIDSON:
    This is Common Ground . In Guatemala, 60 percent of the people are descendants of the Mayan Indians. For five centuries, ever since the Spanish conquest, the Mayan people of Guatemala have been discriminated against, their lands taken away, and they've been brutally victimized. Some of the worst repression occurred during Guatemala's 36-year civil war, which ended only in December 1996. TEK ITZEP PASA: (translated) On May 24th of 1980 the army arrived on market day. The army began a massacre that killed 325 people, including children, women and elders. It all happened within an hour-and-a-half. DAVIDSON: The peace accords signed at the end of the war addressed the need to incorporate Guatemala's indigenous people into mainstream society.
