We hope that this information packet will familiarize you with the country and our work, as well as answer some of your questions regarding the trip. We will be happy to answer any further concerns or questions you may have. Why Community Empowerment Tours? We have invited you on this Community Empowerment Tour so you can: 1) Participate in an experience that you might not otherwise be able to have. As a tourist or backpacker, you might visit famous sites and maybe even stay in someone's home. We seek to go further. We want to give you a taste of life in a rural community, a community of former refugees who have rebuilt their lives from scratch, people who depend on agriculture and fishing for their survival. What would it be like to grow up here? How would you make a living? What projects would you get involved in? We want you to walk in the shoes of someone with a very different life. 2) Learn how local people are addressing some of the most pressing issues facing our planet. Climate change, natural disasters, environmental degradation, poverty, gender inequality, malnutrition and food (in)security, gang violence, lack of opportunities for youth... these issues are present virtually everywhere in the world. We hope you leave with a sense of how the community projects people here are building offer the potential not just to improve their own lives but to offer a way forward for other communities as well. We hope you will be inspired by what they have accomplished, and continue to accomplish, in spite of the very daunting challenges they face. 3) Contribute to the local economy and be part of a model for low-impact tourism, one where local people are in charge and local people benefit. The Salvadoran government has identified the Bay of Jiquilisco as a focal point for tourism development due to its beauty and rich natural resource base. We would like to ensure that all tourism in this area protects the environment and support local communities. The Community Empowerment Tour program was created to show that tourism can help accomplish these goals. 4) Engage in new friendships. We hope you'll have a chance to chat with your guides, the families you eat with and other folks you meet along the way, and move beyond any preconceived notions you may have about what people whose lives are different than yours may be like. 4 5) Become involved with EcoViva. We hope that your week with us will motivate you to stay involved with our work for years to come. At the end of this guidebook you will find ideas for how to share your experience with your community when you return home, and invite your friends to join in organizing in solidarity with the people of El Salvador. We hope you’ll approach this journey as part of a long-term engagement with communities in El Salvador. It will make your experience much more meaningful. We are open to your feedback along the way – please let us know how we can make this an enjoyable, rich and meaningful experience. Trip Preparation Entering and Leaving Entry Requirements: Immigration requires that visitors entering El Salvador have their passport and one of the following documents: a visa or a tourist card. U.S. citizens only need their passport (valid for at least 6 months past your trip) and a tourist card, which is generally issued for 90 days and can be purchased for U.S. $10 at the port of entry. Passports of certain countries might need to obtain a visa before entering El Salvador. A visa for U.S. citizens is free. Some countries pay a fee for the issuance of a visa. If you are not a U.S. citizen and are unsure whether or not you need a visa, please contact EcoViva at [email protected]. Departure Taxes: Passengers leaving the country by air must pay a tax of about $30. Most airlines now include this tax in the total airfare cost. For those traveling by sea or land, the tax varies according to the area. Any travel agency can check the actual amounts. Please note these important details: Your passport must not expire for at least 6 months after you return home. If you are a U.S. or Canadian citizen, you only need your passport and a tourist card (purchased at the airport when you arrive) to enter El Salvador. Someone from EcoViva will pick you up at the airport and return you to the airport for your departing flight. Emergency Number If someone back home needs to get in touch with you while you are in El Salvador, they should contact the EcoViva office at 510-835-1334. The office will put you in touch. If it is an emergency, please call José María “Chema” Argueta at 011-503-7925-1876. He works with the Community Empowerment Tours program in El Salvador, speaks English, and will be able to help in an emergency situation. Please make sure that your emergency contact you listed on your trip application has this number. Housing and Food Community Empowerment Tour participants generally stay in a dormitory in the rural community of Ciudad Romero. It is quite rustic by U.S. standards, though rather nice by local standards. It is 5 comparable to staying in a youth hostel, as the rooms are shared. You will have

  • Struggles to Build Other Futures in El Salvador's
    SUEÑOS SALVADOREÑOS: STRUGGLES TO BUILD OTHER FUTURES IN EL SALVADOR’S MIGRATION LANDSCAPE Joseph L. Wiltberger A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Anthropology Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Arturo Escobar Dorothy Holland Charles Price Altha Cravey Hannah Gill © 2013 Joseph L. Wiltberger ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JOSEPH L. WILTBERGER: Sueños Salvadoreños: Struggles to Build Other Futures in El Salvador’s Migration Landscape (Under the direction of Arturo Escobar) Since El Salvador’s 1980-1992 civil war, the Salvadoran state has embraced a discourse and political economic strategy that favor international migration and remittances for development. Born out of El Salvador’s long history of inequality, memory erasure, and exclusion of marginalized populations, this state-led project of “migration and development” assumes that the economic changes and identities linked to international migration and remittances are a sign of “progress,” as long as migrants and their communities appropriately engage with global capitalist flows to benefit development, mainly through “productive” remittance investment in places of origin. This dissertation examines how this project, and the developmentalist and neoliberal logics and practices that guide it, are contested and challenged in networked and community-based ways. It uses a networked ethnographic lens that follows the experience of one rural community in northern El Salvador and its migrants in the United States, who come from a region known for both community organizing and displacement, to highlight the existence and potentiality of diverse logics and practices linked to migration and development, including those that take on non-capitalist, collectivist, and communal forms.

  • An Exploration of the Salvadoran Mining Justice Movement, and of the Contributions of the Salvadoran Diaspora in Canada
    An Exploration of the Salvadoran Mining Justice Movement, and of the Contributions of the Salvadoran Diaspora In Canada Liam Dunbar Thesis submitted to the University of Ottawa in partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts, Globalization and International Development School of International Development and Global Studies Faculty of Social Sciences University of Ottawa © Liam Dunbar, Ottawa, Canada, 2019 ii Abstract On March 29, 2017, after ten years with a Presidential moratorium on metallic mining in the country, the Salvadoran legislature voted to permanently ban the practice. Based on semi- structured interviews with activists, academics, and journalists, this study builds on the literature explores the contributions of the Salvadoran diaspora in Canada to the passage of the moratorium, and ultimately the ban. I discuss numerous types of contributions: coalition building involving various allies, communication and education initiatives, taking a position as members of the diaspora, and engagements with politicians in both Canada and El Salvador. I provide further context to the case by discussing both contextual elements and mobilization strategies relating to the mining justice movement in El Salvador, contextual elements that help make sense of the engagements of the Salvadoran diaspora in Canada in the movement, and challenges Salvadoran Canadians encountered while engaging in the movement. I conduct my analysis in three parts. The first outlines contributions to the transnationalism literature, the second details

  • Canadian Newspapers' Portrayals of Refugees of El Salvador's Civil War
    Representing Refugees: Canadian Newspapers’ Portrayals of Refugees of El Salvador’s Civil War, 1980 – 1992 By Danielle Jacqueline Dubois A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of History Joint Master's Program University of Manitoba/University of Winnipeg Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2014 by Danielle Dubois I Abstract Beginning in 1979 and officially ending in 1992, the civil war in El Salvador displaced over a million people, both in Central America and throughout the world. Of the thousands who fled, approximately 38,000 Salvadorans came to Canada, making them the largest group of Latin American migrants to Canada in that era. The arrival of these Salvadoran refugees, however, has received limited academic attention, and is somewhat representative of the general dearth of historical writing on immigrants to Canada in the late twentieth century. My thesis examines how Salvadoran refugees to Canada were portrayed in Canadian newspapers during the Salvadoran civil war. I specifically examine how Salvadorans were written about in the Globe and Mail, the Toronto Star and Montreal’s Gazette; I focus on three eras: 1980 to 1982, 1986 to 1987, and 1991 to 1992. In the early 1980s, most of the Salvadorans who appeared in Canadian newspapers were portrayed as distant and largely nameless. By 1986 and 1987, newspapers paid more attention to this group, and some individual Salvadorans were mentioned in Canadian newspapers, but the majority of articles dehumanized Salvadoran refugees. In 1991 and 1992, more individual Salvadorans were featured in Canadian newspapers, but these stories still suggested that Salvadorans were not wholly incorporated into mainstream Canada.

  • Salvadoran Immigrant Activists and Political Transnationalism
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Reconciling Americas: Salvadoran Immigrant Activists and Political Transnationalism A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Arpi Misha Miller 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reconciling Americas: Salvadoran Immigrant Activists and Political Transnationalism by Arpi Misha Miller Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Gail Kligman, Co-chair Professor Roger Waldinger, Co-chair In the 1980s, a violent civil war in El Salvador led to the mass emigration of over a million Salvadorans, many of whom fled their national territory only to seek refuge in the U.S. – the very country funding the military dictatorship in their homeland. Although many Salvadorans bunkered down in cities like Los Angeles in the years to follow, a cohort of politicized Salvadoran migrants remained entrenched in the struggle in their homeland, supporting the resistance movement there and partnering with North American activists to end U.S. military intervention. This dissertation focuses on one such group of Salvadoran immigrant activists and their quest to “reconcile their Americas,” balancing allegiances to their new hostland and their homeland after the war’s end. Specifically, the dissertation focuses on the activists’ creation of the Salvadoran-American Day festival in Los Angeles, and its institutionalization at the federal level, as a platform for visibility, political change and integration between their two ii country contexts. Drawing on over six years of ethnographic research and in-depth interviews, this dissertation teases out the activists’ subjective orientation, practical methodology, the constraints and openings for action they encounter, and the costs and benefits they experience in the course of their transnational political work.

    SENSE OF IDENTITY LOSS AND CONTINUITY IN NARRATIVES OF IMMIGRATION OF A GROUP OF LATIN AMERICAN CANADIAN WOMEN by Nancy Espinoza-Magana B.Sc. Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 1996 M.Sc. Rice University, 1999 M.A. Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Counselling Psychology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2013 © Nancy Espinoza-Magana, 2013 Abstract Drawing from an action theory and other perspectives on identity, which emphasize individuals' social processes and contextual factors, and utilizing a social constructivist approach, this inquiry proposes an understanding of the participants' immigration experiences. This secondary analysis explored the narratives of 25 semistructured interviews conducted in 2002 with Latin American immigrant and refugee women. Using a categorical-content (thematic) analysis, this qualitative research aimed to address the women's sense of identity loss and continuity in their narratives of immigration. Moving to Canada became problematic for half of the women when they experienced a sense of identity loss influenced by challenges of immigration. ii Preface This inquiry is a secondary analysis of narratives of immigration existing in the City of Richmond Archives. These narratives were brought together by a research project that interviewed 25 Latin American Canadian (LAC) immigrant and refugee women in 2002. In chapter 3, I explain how I conducted a categorical-content (thematic) narrative analysis of the narratives of immigration of 25 LAC immigrant women and the criteria for evaluating the findings.
