  • The Amerindians of Guyana: a Biological Review
    D. R. BROTHWELL British Museum (Natural History) The Amerindians of Guyana: A Biological Review ALTHOUGH SOME INDIGENOUS populations of South America have received fairly in- tensive study in recent years, other regions have remained surprisingly neglected. Human biological knowledge of the Amerindians of Guyana (formerly British Guiana) is extremely scattered, and the sum total far from satisfactory. There would thus seem justification for a review of the information so far at hand, and the problems and potentialities of field-work among these people in the future. This review would also seem pertinent in view of the pre- sent stocktaking policy of the IBP as regards human populations (for a general review of South American Amerindians, under the auspices of this international endeavour, one is referred to Baker and Weiner.1 The information presented results from a study of both published and unpublished data, and a short field visit I undertook during the latter part of 1966.* Like other parts of the Amazonian tropical zone, transport is minimal to the interior of the country, and progress by boat or on foot is slow, particularly when there is a need to sample communities in widely differing parts of the country. During the rainy periods of course, communication becomes even more difficult; similarly, at other times a group may be dispersed for reasons of balata bleeding, or when the village school is closed families may be scattered on their cassava plots in the forests. It is thus understandable that data tends to be restricted to specific tribes or regions and that no traits have received attention on a country-wide basis.

  • Sustainable Forestry Community Forestry
    Forest Carbon Partnership Facility Guyana ER-PIN Guyana’s Emission Reduction Programme for Sustainable Forest Management Thirteenth Meeting of the Carbon Fund (CF13) Brussels October 13-16, 2015 Guyana ER-PIN ER Program Idea Background/Context • Guyana is a REDD+ country with a low rate of deforestation and forest degradation. Even with a low rate of deforestation and forest degradation there have been drivers of forest change that are impacting on forest cover, and specific drivers of which have shown increases over the past 4 years. • Guyana’s Emission Reduction Program Idea Note (ERPIN) proposes to maintain a low rate of forest change and at the same time, lower emissions where possible where such reductions can be attained through improved practices and enhanced efficiencies. • The proposed nation-wide ER-Program intends to avoid 27.98 MtCO2e/year from 2018 to 2025 through implementing activities and interventions preliminarily selected based on the impacts of the drivers defined by Guyana’s Measurement Reporting Verification System (MRVS). ER Programme lifetime is for 10 years, with ERs offered to Carbon Fund up to 2025. • From the results of the MRVS, it is clear that mining, and associated roads, is the largest emission source during the period 2001 to 2012, followed by timber harvesting activities. National policies and interventions within the ER Programme have been tailored to address these. • The general objective of the program is to promote sustainable natural resources and environmental management by facilitating coordinated remedial land reclamation interventions, aimed towards managing and combatting land and forest degradation from the activities within Guyana`s extractive sectors.
