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.

2. Globalisation And Tourism:Deadly Mix For Indigenous Peoples In africa, tourism's effects on indigenous peoples have been internationally, it haslong been existing in africa. however, straddled lands of the masai tribe. http://www.twnside.org.sg/title/chavez-cn.htm

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.

3. Africa On The Matrix: The Masai But one redrobed masai far in the distance was enough to seize their attention.Other indigenous peoples Himba Herero and Samburu. Other africa Pages http://www.on-the-matrix.com/africa/masai_people.asp

If you're seeing a big blank space here, it means that your browser does not support modern HTML standards. The slide show that would ordinarily be in this space can be viewed in a separate pop-up window by clicking here The Masai Most of the Masai pictured here are from a small village on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater in northern Tanzania. They have very much maintained their traditional ways as cattle herders. The Masai believe that all cattle in the world belong to them, even though some may have temporarily found themselves in the possession of others. Thus, the Masai are always justified in raiding their non-Masai neighbors in order to "return" the cattle to the rightful owners. The Masai (and the Samburu) have very elaborate "coming of age" traditions. Boys are circumcised in their early teens in a ceremony attended by the entire village. The boy who flinches during this procedure brands himself as a coward and disgraces his family. Once circumcised, the young man becomes a member of the warrior class – a moran – and must live apart from the village with the other warriors. Eventually, at some point in his late teens or early twenties, a moran is chosen to become a junior elder, earns the right to marry and returns to live in the village. There were no moran nearby on the day we visited the Masai village near Ngorongoro, but I did see some in the Samburu region, where the customs are very similar. For photographs, go to the
