Casa Ashaya and Playa Guiones!
Welcome to Casa Ashaya and Playa Guiones! You have chosen to spend your vacation at one of the very best places in the world. We know, we visited many and chose to build our house in this community and we look forward to spending many months here in the future. In the meantime, we want our home to feel appreciated and full of good karma brought on by people from all over the world enjoying the beauty of Nosara. Ashaya is Sanskrit for “refuge of the heart”. In designing our home we wanted to appreciate the jungle and be respectful of the environment. This was behind our choice to have solar power, recycle water, build lots of windows and minimize air conditioning. We hope that you appreciate the warm- hearted zen vibe we are aiming for. We understand that you’ve spent a fair amount to enjoy the house and it’s important to us that you feel at home and comfortable during your stay. Your enjoyment of your holiday is our #1 priority so please don’t hesitate to ask for help if anything isn’t working well. Beach Management does a splendid job in maintaining our home and helping our guests. IMPORTANT INFORMATION The internet comes from Cable Tica and the cabling is top notch so when lightning speed internet comes to Nosara we’ll be ready. Right now, 2mbbs is the best you’ll get. ICE 4G LTE recently installed is actually faster (we’ve recorded up to 7 mbbs) so if you have an unlocked phone, you may want to get a local SIM card and hotspot from the phone if you get a bit frustrated by the slower speeds. -

Language Choice Motivations in a Bribri Community in Costa Rica Janet Blackwood Abstract A growing body of research has been undertaken in a variety of contexts worldwide to explore language preference and use as well as the attitudes and beliefs that may impact the maintenance and revitalization of endangered languages. There has also been considerable examination of the motivations that impact second language learning and the choices speakers make regarding second language learning and use. However this research has rarely extended to exploring the motivations influencing language choices in contexts where one of the languages is an endangered mother‐tongue language. Analyzing a portion of the data gathered from a larger study on language attitudes and practices, this study explores the language choices of members of an indigenous community in Costa Rica and the motivations that appear to influence those choices. An analysis is also made of the relationship between the language choice motivations that are present and current indigenous language revitalization efforts in the community. -

FOR LOVE OR MONEY: HARNESSING ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES AND FINANCIAL INCENTIVES TO PROMOTE CONSERVATION STEWARDSHIP by Paige Olmsted B.Sc.H. Queen’s University, 2006 M.P.A. Columbia University, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Resources, Environment and Sustainability) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2017 © Paige Olmsted, 2017 Abstract Despite broad agreement that large scale funding is needed to address the severe risks associated with habitat loss and ecosystem service degradation, financial and market-based interventions have brought substantial division in the conservation sector. This dissertation examines the values and attitudes associated with financial mechanisms and incentives, considering diverse groups with different relationships to natural landscapes: Costa Rican farmers, North American tourists in Costa Rica, and potential conservation donors. Despite diverse barriers and motives for participation, this dissertation investigates the opportunity for financial mechanisms to bolster and support values associated with environmental responsibility. The first study pilots methods for assessing ‘relational values’, a concept that transcends traditional instrumental/intrinsic value divisions in linking people to ecosystems. Results suggest that relational values are distinct from standard methods of measuring ecological worldview and are predictive of farmer attitudes at the landscape level. The second study assesses environmental values and attitudes of Costa Rican farmers regarding their national payment for ecosystem services program. The study investigates a set of claims regarding the negative effects of monetary incentives associated with the idea of “motivational crowding out”. Results indicate strong environmental concern across both participants and non- participants, and finds strong correlations between relational values and a series of farming attitudes associated with lifestyle and conservation. -
Program of the 34Th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology
Program of the 34th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology Historical and Archaeological Perspecives in Ethnobiology May 4 - 7, 2011 Columbus, Ohio Welcome to the 34th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology This meeting continues a long tradition in our Society. Since the first Society meeting in 1978 – when many of the world’s leading ethnobiologists came together to share ideas – the Society has been at the forefront of inter-disciplinary ethnobiological research. Equally important, since those first days, the Society has created and nurtured a worldwide ethnobiological community that has become the intellec- tual and emotional home for scholars world-wide. Our meetings are the forum for bringing this community together and our world-class journal is the venue for sharing our research more broadly. For my part, my deep commitment to the Society began as a student in 1984, at the 7th Annual meetings. At that time, I was fortunate to present the results of my Masters research (while referring to text on glossy erasable typing paper!) in Harriet Kuhnlein’s session on her inter-disciplinary and community-based “Nuxalk Food and Nutrition Project”. This project and indeed my opportunity to be involved in it (as a Masters student in Archaeology, of all things), exemplifies the potential of ethnobiology to make linkages. Looking at the society today, we see abundant linkages between academic disciplines, between academic and non-academic knowledge holders, and between advanced scholars and new researchers. This is what the Society of Ethnobiology is all about. In the past four years, your Board and many other Society volunteers have worked hard to promote the Society’s goals by focus- ing on these linkages.
