Acknowledgements It would not have been possible for me to undertake the academic and personal challenge that the PhD process entails, without the presence and support of many different people. I am greatly indebted to my supervisors at the ISS, Max Spoor, Murat Arsel and Lorenzo Pellegrini, for their guidance and constant encouragement throughout all these years. Thanks also for allowing me to be part of the NEBE Project, which gave me the opportunity to develop interesting personal and academic relations. I also want to acknowledge the financial support to complete my studies at the ISS and the research for the thesis, funded by a scholarship granted by the Secretariat for Higher Education, Science, Technology and Innovation of Ecuador, SENESCYT. During fieldwork, I met amazing people to whom I am extremely grateful for their hospitality and generosity with their time. This work would not have been possible without the participation of all the community and federation leaders in this study. I would like to thank Father Jorge Chumapi, who was the President of the Shuar Federation of Zamora Chinchipe at the time of my fieldwork, not only for offering me valuable information, but especially for his friendship. Special thanks also to Jeffersson Pullaguari, Edgar Aguananchi, Susana Guerrero (for the great food, hospitality and friendship during my stay in Tundayme), and José Tendetza (may he rest in peace). It was very rewarding to do fieldwork with the help and company of my students, Erika, Sebastián, Patricia and Cristina and with my friend and colleague Karolien van Teijlingen, with whom I have greatly enjoyed working ever since. I would also like to thank the authorities at the Universidad San Francisco de Quito, whose trust on my work allowed me to pursue my goals while keeping my teaching position at the university. I am also very grateful to my sister and colleague Carmen Fernández-Salvador, who was really the first person to inspire and push me to pursue an academic career; also to my colleague and friend Michael Hill, for all the time he put into reading my work and the great insights and ideas he shared with me.

    Deconstructing the western worldview: toward the repatriation and indigenization of wellness Item Type Thesis Authors Rahm, Jacqueline Marie Download date 23/09/2021 13:22:54 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/11122/4821 DECONSTRUCTING THE WESTERN WORLDVIEW: TOWARD THE REPATRIATION AND INDIGENIZATION OF WELLNESS A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the University of Alaska Fairbanks in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Jacqueline Marie Rahm, B.A., M.A. Fairbanks, Alaska December 2014 Abstract As Indigenous peoples and scholars advance Native histories, cultures, and languages, there is a critical need to support these efforts by deconstructing the western worldview in a concerted effort to learn from indigenous knowledge and ways of knowing for humanity’s future wellbeing. Toward that imperative, this research brings together and examines pieces of the western story as they intersect with Indigenous peoples of the lands that now comprise the United States of America. Through indigenous frameworks and methodologies, it explores a forgotten epistemology of the pre-Socratic and Pythagorean Archaic and Classical Greek eras that is far more similar to indigenous worldviews than it is to the western paradigm today. It traces how the West left behind this timeless wisdom for the “new learning” and the European colonial settlers arrived in the old “New World” with a fragmented, materialistic, and dualistic worldview that was the antithesis to those of Indigenous peoples. An imbalanced and privileged worldview not only justified an unacknowledged genocide in world history, it is characteristic of a psycho-spiritual disease that plays out across our global society.

  • Modes of Dispossession of Indigenous Lands and Territories in Africa
    Modes of Dispossession of Indigenous Lands and Territories in Africa Elifuraha I. Laltaika1 and Kelly M. Askew2 I. Background and context3 The 2003 Report of Working Group on Indigenous Populations/Communities (WGIP) of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR) recognized the existence of multiple indigenous peoples in Africa primarily consisting of pastoralists (e.g., Pokot, Maasai, Barbaig, Karamajong, Samburu, Turkana, Afar, Borana, Tuareg, and Fulani) and hunter-gatherers (e.g., Batwa, Hadzabe, Ogiek and San). These peoples require access to land and water resources in their ancestral territories to pursue their legally protected ways of life per the 2007 UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). However, powerful transnational corporations and conservation organizations—both typically aligned with local political and economic elites—were already identified in the 2003 WGIP report as a threat to indigenous lands, resources and livelihoods: Dispossession of land and natural resources is a major human rights problem for indigenous peoples. They have in so many cases been pushed out of their traditional areas to give way for the economic interests of other more dominant groups and to large scale development initiatives that tend to destroy their lives and cultures rather than improve their situation. Establishment of protected areas and national parks have impoverished indigenous pastoralist and hunter-gatherer communities, made them vulnerable and unable to cope with environmental uncertainty and in many cases even displaced them. Large-scale extraction of natural resources such as logging, mining, dam construction, oil drilling and pipeline construction have had very negative impacts on the livelihoods of indigenous pastoralist and hunter-gatherer communities in Africa.

Understanding, documentation and appropriate use of new records are essential, especially when managing threatened species. Here we present novel data regarding new distributional records for 17 bird species along the Amazonian slopes of the eastern Ecuadorian Andes. The new records fill gaps on our knowledge in the distribution, both in latitude and altitude. Although knowledge on the distribution of birds on mainland Ecuador has been well studied (Fjeldså Rostrhamus sociabilis ACCIPITRIDAE during recent years an inspiring number of articles have Snail Kite Cassin, 1854 - Two beenand Krabbe published 1990; documenting Ridgely and newGreenfield discoveries 2001; on2006), the individuals in juvenile plumage were seen flying over the distribution of birds in mainland Ecuador (e.g. Freile old-Zamora Airstrip on 6 March 2008, Zamora-Chinchipe et al. province (950 m a.s.l., 03°59’ S, 78°53’ W).

These investigations resulted in the tormulation of a methodology for co.inunity planning, which embodies the concepts of sustainable development. Existing methodologies for community development, for the introduction of environmentally conscious productive activities in communities, and for implementation of environmentally sound operations were used as tools in the development of our methodology. Too, personal experience and systematic evaluation using matrixes of criteria were utilized in definition and formuiation of our project. Effective application of this methodology may be utilized by both communities and institutions in future planning efforts.
