The List is aimed at promoting the construction of Special Safeguarding Plans (PES) for relevant or at-risk elements throughout the country as instruments built in a participatory manner by the communities. The Special Safeguarding Plans contain a broad characterization of the element, diagnosis of its viability and formulation of measures to guarantee its safeguarding, which is updated periodically through a participatory review and monitoring process every 5 years. This mechanisms is regulated by Decree 1080 of 2015, modified and added by Decree 2358 of 2019.

Likewise, the Policy dictates articulation guidelines are dictated with other sectors of the State involved in the safeguarding of the ICH such as: Education, Environment, Health, and Commerce and Tourism, among others. This report gathers the experience of Colombia in the implementation of the Intangible Cultural Heritage Safeguard Policy both for specific elements through the processes of implementation of the Special Safeguarding Plans, as well as safeguarding ICH in general, through the transversal actions of Policy and coordination with various sectors of the national state and civil society. This experience is presented in accordance with the Overall Results Framework of the 2003 Convention, as the basis for the organizational structure of the report. The report is based on the description and relevant examples gathered in a participatory manner with multiple stakeholders of the National Policy for the Safeguarding of ICH that instruct how Colombia has advanced towards results within the aforementioned Overall Results Framework.

    LEADERSHIP FORUM/FORO DE LIDERAZGO/ FORUM DE LEADERSHIP “If the coronavirus doesn’t kill us, hunger will” Regional absenteeism and the Wayuu permanent humanitarian crisis Claudia Puerta Silva, Esteban Torres Muriel, Roberto Carlos Amaya Epiayú, Alicia Dorado González, Fatima Epieyú, Estefanía Frías Epinayú, Álvaro Ipuana Guariyü, Miguel Ramírez Boscán, Jakeline Romero Epiayú For more than 30 years a er the arrival of the fi rst multinational coal com- pany in La Guajira, the Wayuu have raised their voices. They denounce the extermination of their people, the dispossession of their territory and their resources, and the negligence of the Colombian and Venezuelan states in facing a humanitarian crisis caused by hunger and the death of more than 4,000 children. The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 pandemic within this context. Various voices participated in the writing of this text as an a empt to strengthen collaborations between activists, leaders, members of Wayuu organizations, and anthropologists. Two research projects are the interface for the continuing links to collectively refl ect on the structural problems that cause hunger and imagine initiatives for the political, economic, and cultural changes that would be necessary to guarantee the food security and territorial autonomy of the Wayuu. To write the text, we circulated fi ve questions by telephone and email and compiled the diff erent answers. We interwove our voices from each author’s knowledge of the territory and the arrival of COVID-19 as a pan- demic that has caused a crisis on top of crises and structural pandemics that for centuries have aff ected the ethnic survival and territorial auton- omy of the Wayuu people.

    This is an extract from: Gold and Power in Ancient Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia Jeffrey Quilter and John W. Hoopes, Editors published by Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection Washington, D.C. © 2003 Dumbarton Oaks Trustees for Harvard University Washington, D.C. Printed in the United States of America www.doaks.org/etexts.html The Political Economy of Pre-Colombian Goldwork: Four Examples from Northern South America Carl Henrik Langebaek Universidad de los Andes Introduction: The Problem ome twenty years ago, Alicia Dussán de Reichel (1979: 41) complained that studies that “set out to place the prehistoric metallurgy of Colombia within a wider context Sof cultural development” were not very numerous. Despite a great deal of research on Pre-Columbian goldwork since, the same observation remains true today. One source of frustration comes from the fact that most archaeologists focus on the study of metallurgy as a goal in itself. Although researchers have produced detailed descriptions about the techno- logical characteristics of Pre-Columbian goldwork (Scott 1981), timelines, definitions of “styles” and “traditions,” as well as correlations among styles across Colombia, Lower Central America, and Ecuador (Bray 1981; 1992a; 1997; Plazas and Falchetti 1983), and identifica- tions of plant and animal species represented in ornaments (Legast 1987), they have rarely placed goldwork within a social context (Looper 1996) or incorporated it in models related to social change. Whatever improvement in the research on Pre-Columbian metal objects there has been, further progress will be limited if it is not aimed at understanding the way societies function and change (Lechtman 1984).

  • A New Culinary Culture in Colombia: Equality and Identity in the Interpretation of Traditional Cuisines
    A New Culinary Culture in Colombia: Equality and Identity in the Interpretation of Traditional Cuisines A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Juliana Duque-Mahecha May 2017 © 2017 Juliana Duque-Mahecha A New Culinary Culture in Colombia: Equality and Identity in the Interpretation of Traditional Cuisines Juliana Duque-Mahecha, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 Abstract Cooking responds to this double entendre of a past that is collected, interpreted and then projected on to a present that then overcomes it. New food trends necessarily imply questions about social and cultural equality and identity. That which is novel is exciting and refreshing; it implies learning and broadening boundaries, which are often geographical and social and always cultural. However, the process also entails the inherent challenge to define and answer what is lost and valued in a new scenario and to understand to what purpose. Some categories that have been used to understand such historical processes of cultural production in social systems are class, race, ethnicity and gender, as well as concepts associated with territory, differentiation, integration and democratization, authenticity and exoticization. My purpose in conducting an analytical approach to the development of the gastronomical and culinary subject in Colombia and of building a diagnostic map of it, responds to the wish to contribute to the understanding of the function of food research in solving specific questions of inequality, estrangement, and deracination, as well as understanding new senses of belonging and appropriation that emerge because of urban reconfigurations.

Indigenous populations inhabited most of these regions, and by the late-nineteenth century the Latin American states started to target them in an effort to secure national borders and consolidate territorial control. With only a few exceptions, states turned to international Christian missionary orders to help them in the “civilization” of these indigenous areas, and by the first decade of the twentieth century the missionaries were active in many of them, from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego.

    Reinterpreting the Global, Rearticulating the Local: Nueva Música Colombiana, Networks, Circulation, and Affect Simón Calle Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Simón Calle All rights reserved ABSTRACT Reinterpreting the Global, Rearticulating the Local: Nueva Música Colombiana, Networks, Circulation, and Affect Simón Calle This dissertation analyses identity formation through music among contemporary Colombian musicians. The work focuses on the emergence of musical fusions in Bogotá, which participant musicians and Colombian media have called “nueva música Colombiana” (new Colombian music). The term describes the work of bands that assimilate and transform North-American music genres such as jazz, rock, and hip-hop, and blend them with music historically associated with Afro-Colombian communities such as cumbia and currulao, to produce several popular and experimental musical styles. In the last decade, these new fusions have begun circulating outside Bogotá, becoming the distinctive sound of young Colombia domestically and internationally. The dissertation focuses on questions of musical circulation, affect, and taste as a means for articulating difference, working on the self, and generating attachments others and therefore social bonds and communities This dissertation considers musical fusion from an ontological perspective influenced by actor-network, non-representational, and assemblage theory. Such theories consider a fluid social world, which emerges from the web of associations between heterogeneous human and material entities. The dissertation traces the actions, interactions, and mediations between places, people, institutions, and recordings that enable the emergence of new Colombian music. In considering those associations, it places close attention to the affective relationships between people and music.
