Ofic. 501 Pucallpa, Perú Telf. 51 (61) 571713 PALMAS DEL PERÚ Abril 17, 2016 Ms. Sasikia Ozinga Co-Chair of the Board Forest Peoples Programme 1c Fosseway Business Centre, Stratford Road Moreton-in-Marsh, GL56 9NQ England We are responding to your letter dated March 4th, 2016 and confirming our serious commitment to sustainable entrepreneurship in Peru, respecting their laws and operating with social inclusion and environmental care, especially with respect to the original cultures close to the areas where we are carrying out our activities. 1. In order to maintain a relationship of reciprocal treatment with your organization, it is necessary for us to receive a satisfactory clarification on the part of FPP for that which was irresponsably expressed in the fourth paragraph of your online press release issued on November 18th, 2015 regarding alleged death threats to Mr. Washington Bolivar insinuating that this was supposedly carried out by the company and its principal director Mr Dennis Melka. Freedom of expression is in no way an acceptable pretext for desseminating slanderous allegations through the media, which without objective evidence unjustly attempt to skew information and the perceptions of people and institutions with the presumed intention of damaging their respective reputations. We wish to remind you that the rights of one person end where the rights of another begin. In the letter we sent on November 23rd, 2015 we had specifically requested from you objective evidence proving the above claims made by the FPP. Up to this point in time we still have not received any response 2. We reiterate that our agricultural activities are NOT being carried out on property owned by the Shipibo community of Santa Clara de Uchunya , demonstrated not only in the field of pure national and international law and binding agreements , but also with full respect for customary laws of Indigenous peoples , through the following considerations : • The Regional Government of Ucayali , according to its competence, by Regional Executive Resolution No. 591 of December 31, 2015 , initiated the administrative process to issue titles of territory expansion to the native community of Santa Clara de Uchunya , an action in which the Community was included and participated. With this act of pure law and social participation , it is objectively demonstrated that the company NEVER HAVE OPERATED ON THE PROPERTY OF SANTA CLARA de UCHUNYA , as these lands granted to the Community at this time are those that ALLEGEDLY are being occupied by us. Under the binding customary law , relating to the positioning of the land of the Community of Santa Clara de Uchunya , which is located on the bank of Rio Aguaytia in the District of New Requena , Department of Ucayali ; neither can be appealed to as being an ancestral property since the Convention on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples 1989 ( no. 169 ) of the ILO, says : " The recognition of the right to land is based on the traditional occupation , comprising land where indigenous peoples lived over time ... " also mentioned in their objective criteria " ... they should be descended from the populations which inhabited the country , or a geographical region to which the country belongs, at the time of conquest or colonization or the establishment of present state boundaries ... " . Santa Clara Uchunya , populated by the ethnic group Shipibo - Conibo , has occupied its current land since 1975 , the year which it was recognized and titled by the SINAMO (authorized state institution) and according to the study by the anthropologist Manuel Cuentas Robles in his 2009 paper entitled "Historical and documentary evidence on the true story of Pucallpa ", a location map of the ethnic groups in this part of the Peruvian Amazon is shown on page 48 placing the Shipibos - Conibos on the banks of the Ucayali River and not in the area of the Aguaytia River, which was the territory of the Cacataibo ( Cashibos, Carapachos) who sporadically roamed the current area of Santa Clara of Uchunya. Since then they have retired to the area of the present town of Aguaytia, Padre Abad District (page 52) where they currently remain. Av. San Martín 200 – Ofic. 501 Pucallpa, Perú Telf. 51 (61) 571713 [Escriba texto] [Escriba texto] [Escriba texto] It has therefore been shown that the forty families of Shipibos - Conibos currently living in Santa Clara de Uchunya did not ancestrally occupy these lands , as their ancestors occupied the banks of the Ucayali River, so there is no reason to try to create conflicts with this justification . 3. All alleged conflicts with villagers and REAL leaders of Santa Clara de Uchunya are clarified today; there is no conflict between us , being best evidenced by the fact that 7th of this month we signed a Cooperation Agreement between the Municipal District of Nueva Requena , the native community of Santa Clara de Uchunya, the villages of Caribe and San Pablo de Juantia and ourselves, as a sign of peaceful coexistence and mutual cooperation in the area of our activities. 4. With regard to Mr. Washington Bolivar Diaz , the expressions that you cite in your letter in point number one are not ours, they are the words of Mr. Grimaldo Octavio Villacorta , member of the same ethnic group that Mr. Bolivar belongs to and President of the Federation of Cacataibo Native Communities (FENACOCA ) < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Frx8lWjIlDI > the organization from which Mr. Bolivar was expelled according to Mr. Villacorta’s words. Also, Mr. Bolivar is not leader of the community of Santa Clara de Uchunya , since this is a Shipibo - Coniba ethnic group ( Mr. Bolivar is Cacataibo ) and its president is Mr. Juan Nunta Valera. 5 With respect to point number 5 of your letter we must clarify the following: Regarding the satellite images that you mentioned, we can say that the analysis of these images is questionable. The analysis says that the field of Plantaciones de Pucallpa is 6845.23 ha and only 1561.06 ha had been deforested, however Plantaciones de Pucallpa has only 5640 hectares planted with oil palm and had bought a total of 5889.62 hectares, ie the 6824.39 hectares mentioned in the analysis include adjacent parcels owned by neighboring small farmers and it is precisely within these adjacent plots where they have observed the alleged deforestation. The analysis of satellite images only categorizes and quantifies the total area of deforested hectares and hectares of primary forests , which shows that this analysis has been prepared without following the minimum technical criteria (is totally illogical that there would be 1561.06 hectares that have been deforested and directly adjacent to such deforestation is a primary forest ). The analysis of satellite images does not consider the areas thinned by legal and illegal lumber interests, purmas ( secondary forests degraded by migratory cultivation and illegal coca crops ) , subsistence crops such as banana, cassava , papaya etc. that the association who sold us the land was cultivating and which is consistent with the information that you mentioned in your letter. We want to emphasize that Peruvian law is very strict regarding land titling ; the 200 parcels that we bought which were titled in 1998 and 2008 could only have been titled because they were deemed apt for economic usage; crops, grazing pastures , etc. you have also made this point clear in your letter. We have made the clarifications requested by you , we ask you to cease using the Community of Santa Clara de Uchunya, with whom we currently have the best of intercommunity relations, as an argument to discredit to our managers and company . We reiterate once again that our activities are carried out with respect to binding national and international standards , the rights of people, and the environment. Sincerely; J. Ulises Saldaña B. Institutional Relations Manager [email protected] / +51-961619888 Av. San Martín 200 – Oficina. 501 Pucallpa, Perú Telf. 51 (61) 571713 .

La Molina 1895, La Molina 15024 Peru; [email protected] 3 SEED (Solutions & Evidence for Environment & Development), 163 Howard St, Oxford OX4 3BA, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected] Received: 5 July 2018; Accepted: 24 August 2018; Published: 31 August 2018 Abstract: In Peru, as in many developing countries, charcoal is an important source of fuel. We examine the commercial charcoal commodity chain from its production in Ucayali, in the Peruvian Amazon, to its sale in the national market. Using a mixed-methods approach, we look at the actors involved in the commodity chain and their relationships, including the distribution of benefits along the chain. We outline the obstacles and opportunities for a more equitable charcoal supply chain within a multi-level governance context. The results show that charcoal provides an important livelihood for most of the actors along the supply chain, including rural poor and women. We find that the decentralisation process in Peru has implications for the formalisation of charcoal supply chains, a traditionally informal, particularly related to multi-level institutional obstacles to equitable commerce. This results in inequity in the supply chain, which persecutes the poorest participants and supports the most powerful actors.

The project will promote the use of timber sourced from forests under sustainable forest management, with the aim of enhancing the transparency of timber marketing and improving forest governance in the Peruvian Amazon region through the participation of indigenous peoples and small and medium enterprises as key stakeholders in the conservation of forests. Furthermore, the project will build the capacities of farmers, technical personnel and other administrative and executive staff in the management of forest businesses. It will also develop and propose a traceability system that will allow producers to certify the legal origin of marketed timber. The volume of timber harvested from sustainable sources will be increased and guaranteed by a forest certification process and, upon project completion, a timber traceability model will be available and implemented by the SMEs in the regions of Ucayali, Madre de Dios,

  • Geographical Distribution of Anopheles Darlingi in the Amazon Basin Region of Peru
    Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 19(4):2g6_296,2OO3 Copyright @ 2OO3 by the American Mosquito Control Association, Inc. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF ANOPHELES DARLINGI IN THE AMAZON BASIN REGION OF PERU GEORGE B. SCHOELER,' CARMEN FLORES-MENDOZA,2 ROBERTO FERNANDEZ,' JORGE REYES DAVILA3 eNo MICHAELZYZAK4 ABSTRACT MaIaTia has reemerged as a significant public health disease threat in peru, especially within the Amazon Basin region. This resurgence plasmodiu- of human caies caused by infection with TaLiporum and Plasmodium vivax is thought to be associated with the spread of Anopheles dartingi, the priniipal'South American malaria vector, into new areas of the Amazon Basin. However, comprehensive studies of the distri- bution for this species have not been conducted in Peru for several yea.., no.^a." historical accounts accurare enough to determine if An. darlingi was actually present and not iollected or misidentified. Therefore, the objective of this study is to define the distribution of An. dartingl as well as obtain data on distribution and abundance of othet Anopheles species in this region. Mosquitoes were collected during 2001 in the Departments of Loreto and Ucayali, the two largest Amazonian Departments of Peru. A total of 60,5-85 specimens representing 12 species of the subgenera Nyssorhynchus and Anopheles were collected at 82 (88.2Vo)bf 93 colleciing sites. The majority of mosquitoes obtained were identified as An. benarrocftl, comprising 7O:7Eo of mosquitols col- lected, followed by An. darlingi (24.OVo),Anopheles mattogrosensis (2.4Eo), uid Anoph"l"t triannulitus (l.57o). Anopheles darlingi was collected from 48.89o of sites, indicating that this specieJ is established throughout T c€ntral 'oreto, including further west in the Amazon Basin than previously reported.

  • Vulnerability Index Elaboration for Climate Change Adaptation in Peru
    European Journal of Sustainable Development (2019), 8, 5, 102-114 ISSN: 2239-5938 Doi: 10.14207/ejsd.2019.v8n5p102 Vulnerability Index Elaboration for Climate Change Adaptation in Peru Marta Tostes Vieira1, Alfredo Villavicencio Vieira2 and Claudia Motta Villa García3 Abstract This paper evidences one of the most relevant information gaps of climate change adaptation in Peru: its vulnerabilities. First, it contextualizes main national level impacts and progress made in adaptation measures definition from prioritized thematic areas. Then, it addresses the difficulty of finding tools to measure climatic risk level. For instance, this arises the need to focus on the vulnerability associated with climate change adaptation efforts. Therefore, a vulnerability index based on a multi criteria analysis is proposed, with three parts. In the first one, three-work axes were chosen following the fifth IPCC report guidelines: climatic phenomena dangers, territorial exposure, and subjects’ vulnerability. The territorial area analysis was carried on at district level. With regard to subjects, five indicator groups were identified, and measurable variables were chosen: population; species and ecosystems; functions, services, and environmental municipalities’ assets; economic, social and cultural assets; and infrastructure. Next, data was searched for each variable and it was systematized in a multi-criteria database. Finally, an index (0-15) was developed to calculate socio- climatic vulnerability of all the Peruvian District Municipalities. They were classified according to social, climatic, and socio-climatic vulnerability range. This facilitates a targeting instrument for public policies that can generate better climate change risk management and contributes to commitments fulfillment of the Sustainable Development Goals. Keywords: Climate change, Vulnerability, Climate change adaptation, Socio-climatic vulnerabilities, Climate risk, Sustainable Development Goals 1.

Please cite as ‘Rausch, L., Bennet, A., Sullivan, C., Gibbs, H.K. Pathways to zero deforestation oil palm in Peru. Gibbs Land Use and Environment Report Series. 19 April 2020’ Oil Palm in Peru: Production on the crop’s frontier As suitable areas for expansion in the conventional oil palm production regions of Malaysia and Indonesia are exhausted, and international political pressure increasingly drives moratoria on expansion in these regions, the palm oil sector is turning its attention to new countries with suitable land for oil palm production.1 Countries in Africa (particularly Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, and Liberia) and South America (particularly Peru, Brazil, and Colombia) have been identified as ‘new frontiers’ based on the opportunities presented by their favourable environmental and socio-political contexts: substantial areas of ‘suitable’ land, political willingness to expand production, and rural populations targeted for economic development schemes and/or cheap labor forces.2 Peru is among the countries on oil palm’s next frontier with the most rapid recent growth rate. While there were only 97,773 hectares (ha) of oil palm in Peru in 2017, this represents a 160% increase since 2012.3 Peru produced 295,073 tons of palm oil in 2017 and has recently shifted from a net importer to a net exporter of palm.4 The country currently exports to Chile & Colombia among other countries.5 Moreover, there are almost 4 million hectares (Mha) of suitable cleared area in Peru in addition to current oil palm plantations, and 51 Mha forestlands of at least moderate suitability.6 In Latin America, oil palm expansion has largely occurred on already deforested pasture land.
