Ecuador : Indigenous peoples close to extinction because of illegal logging On 27 April 2007, following a visit to the Amazon region, the President of the Republic, Mr. Rafael Correa decreed a ban on timber extraction from this area because of the imminent disappearance of the country’s native forests. In spite of this declaration, the extraction of cedar wood in the Yasuni National Park (YNP) and in the Intangible Zone continues non-stop. The Yasuni National Park and the Intangible Zone are the territory of the Tagaeri/Taromenane Indigenous Peoples in Voluntary Isolation (IPVI). The invasion of their territories by oil and logging companies and tourists has placed these peoples in danger of extinction. To date, various measures have been set out on paper to avoid this happening, but have not been implemented. In a visit to the Intangible Zone, members of the Huaorani People together with Accion Ecologica campaigners verified the presence of various crews of loggers extracting cedar wood from the dense forest. The situation of these men is so precarious that they have no other alternative than placing their lives at risk in order to obtain an income to survive on. Those who benefit and control the timber business in Yasuni are not these daily labourers who risk their lives, but the logging companies safe in comfortable and influential positions, manipulating their strings of power.

Quiroz Avatar is real: the fictional planet of Pandora exists in South and Central America, and the Na'vi peoples are being displaced and killed right now. The names are different, but the facts are almost the same. In the next generation, Central and South America will be the battlefields for rich countries to fight over natural resources, which they need to continue growing and keeping up to their consumerist, excessive ways of life. The last pristine, virgin forests on Earth will be taken over by rich and powerful military armies, working on behalf of the interests of multinational corporations. It's happening already in the tropical forests and mountains of the continent. Mining, oil, tourism, real estate and other corporations are trying to take over the indigenous peoples' ancestral lands, in complicity with the local puppet governments. Sebastian Machineri is a leader of the Yaminawa people that live in the border area of Brazil, Peru and Bolivia, deep in the Amazon forest. He told me that indigenous peoples in Brazil are being killed, attacked, displaced, and exterminated by the government and the private ranch owners.

We respectfully call the attention of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous issues to the devastating impacts of environmental contamination and eco-system destruction on the health, well being and traditional subsistence practices of Indigenous Peoples, and in particular on the health and development of Indigenous infants, children and future generations. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) currently the subject of an internationally binding treaty which is yet to be implemented, include many pesticides as well as industrial chemicals and by products such as PCB's and dioxins. Their proven adverse effects on children, in particular developing fetuses and nursing infants, include many types of birth defects, diabetes, hormonal and reproductive disorders, learning disabilities and neurological damage, cancers and immune system disorders. Despite these devastating known health effects, industrial countries such as the US continue to allow the export of toxic chemicals, including ones which have been banned for use in their own countries, to developing countries, such as Mexico and Guatemala. It is estimated that between 1996 and 2000, the United States exported nearly 1.1 billion pounds of pesticides that were identified as known or suspected carcinogens, mainly to developing countries to be used for agriculture.

Matt Mazer, a renowned filmmaker, hoped to contribute to efforts to alleviate their plight. One of Mazer’s stellar accomplishments is his documentary entitled Keepers of Eden. It captures the struggles of the Huaoranis, who are being displaced from their homeland by companies searching for oil and illegal loggers. The Huaoranis occupy the rainforests of the Amazonian Region of Ecuador, and are known to be a fierce tribe that survives by hunting and gathering. They also spoke what appears to be a linguistic isolate. Ever since the oil and logging companies entered the basin, the tribe has been dealing with a decline in food sources as well as an attack on their way of life.

From ALAI (Latin American Information Agency) 21 Aug 1995 Translated for NY Transfer News by Michael Pearlman salem@vm.temple.edu ECUADOR: INDIGENOUS PEOPLES CREATE POLITICAL MOVEMENT Indigenous Political Movement Rises by Eduardo Tamayo Pachac'utic is the name of the new indigenous political movement organized to participate in the next elections in May 1996. Pachac'utic, according to the provisional coordinator of the movement, Valerio Grefa, signifies the coming of a new era, the era of transformation, change and rebirth of the indigenous peoples. The Pachac'utic movement, which has been gestating for a year, does not plan to become a parallel organization to the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE), which groups most of the indigenous population, estimated at 20% of 11 million Ecuadorians. "This movement is a consensual action of the peoples, organizations and popular sectors that have a full identity as indigenous peoples because Indian blood runs in their veins," as Grefa describes it. "After five centuries of resistance by the indigenous peoples, peasants and popular sectors, we are now prepared to recuperate our philosophic bases and reconstruct and restore our original peoples," added Grefa, who also leads the Coordination of Indigenous organizations of the Amazon Basin (COICA), headquartered in Quito.

View Document as HTML: Click here to view the document Abstract: For social movement scholars and activists alike the question of how to most effectively pursue change is a serious one. What kinds of structure and strategies do successful social movements adopt? Scholars especially tend to view movements as existing in an either/or dichotomy with regards to seeking state power or not, being identity-based or more inclusive, and using legal, institutional methods of struggle or extra-institutional ones. However, we must question the utility of such dichotomies. How useful are theses dichotomies and do they apply to the structures and strategies of actual social movements? As a means of addressing these very important issues, I will be drawing on research conducted in 2002 in order to look at the structure of and strategies used by the Indigenous movement in Ecuador. What are the structures and strategies that have allowed this movement to break with the old dichotomies successfully? How successful are these mixed means of pursuing change? Can other movements also reject the dichotomies and pursue similar strategies to those presented here?
