  • Field Notes from Spiti.Pdf
    Field Notes from Spiti: 2003 & 2004 Spiti’s vegetation is sparse, with a human population of about 10,000, one of the lowest densities in India, with important biodiversity and cultural values. In the fall of 2003, the Snow Leopard Conservancy partnered with The Mountain Institute (TMI) and UNESCO for an assessment of Community‐based Tourism and the potential for Traditional Himalayan Homestays in Spiti District, Himachal Pradesh, India. The Homestay program is part of a larger program to link snow leopard conservation with local livelihoods in Asia. Three villages emerged as suitable potential communities with whom to start community‐based tourism activities. All are located close to or in the Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary and Pin Valley National Park, and offered prospects for cultural and wildlife‐based tourism that could build upon existing local skills and knowledge. In order to help ensure sustainability and local ownership, and to build local capacity, SLC worked through two local Spiti organizations focused on cultural and wildlife tourism: MUSE and the All Spiti Youth Association, which joined forces under the banner of EcoSphere in 2007. In September 2003 staff from each organization were among eighteen trainees from Ladakh, Uttaranchal and Himachal Pradesh attending a Community‐Based Tourism course held in the buffer zone of Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, a relatively pristine protected area in India’s newly created state of Uttaranchal. The park known for its remoteness and reputation as a sanctuary for snow leopard, blue sheep and musk deer. The training was sponsored by the Uttaranchal Department of Forests’s Center for Ecotourism and Sustainable Livelihoods, TMI and SLC.

  • Transitions, Tribulations & Triumphs
    Transitions, Tribulations & Triumphs Third Annual Conference South Asian Studies Association University of Central Florida Fairwinds Alumni Center Orlando, Florida April 3-5, 2009 Distinguished Achievement Honorees Anil Deshpande Harold A. Gould Plenary Session Speakers Vivek Wadhwa Ambassador Arun K. Singh Laurie L. Patton Featured Guests Arun Sharma David Verquist Rinku Singh Dinesh Patel A Warm Sunshine State Welcome SASA. Two years age we met as the South Asian Studies Alliance, SASA, a project of Asian Studies on the Pacific Coast (ASPAC). For years ASPAC saw declining South Asian participation at Asian Studies conferences all around the country. This made no sense so ASPAC decided to test the waters by organizing a South Asia specific conference. Overnight we became the second largest gathering of South Asianists in the U.S. Effective October 18, 2007 we became the South Asian Studies Association, a California non-profit, public benefit corporation. A couple months later the IRS granted us 501(c3) tax exempt status retroactive to the date of incorporation. SASA III. SASA II saw a 25% growth over SASA I, an extraordinary achievement in a period of shrinking budgets and overall declining conference attendance. Over the last several months, with the American economy in turmoil, conferences of all kinds have been severely hammered, SASA included. Yet, we continue to thrive. We are grateful to the University of Central Florida for their generous support and provision of space. SASA IV. Next year we will meet in the heart of Silicon Valley, Santa Clarita, California. As a 100% all volunteer organization we encourage you to join us in pulling together to make SASA IV another success.
