  • Making Connections September 2008 Nicaragua and Heifer Int'l's WILD
    Making Connections September 2008 Nicaragua and Heifer Int’l’s WILD Program “Before, I did not understand things. The men were the breadwinners and said everything. But now the women are a part of the community. We are happy and more active with much more confidence.” “As women, we no longer feel alone… Now we help each other the best we can.” “It’s not just a project for each us. It’s a project for all of us.” Rosa Carmen Medina, Bernadina Maria Salgado, and Felicitas Diaz Lopez Nicaraguan Poultry Farmers and Heifer Project Participants Chickens, Piggies and Cows, Oh My! And Sheep too! Okay, even a cynic like me can’t resist all those cute smiling kids with equally cute animals on Heifer International’s website. (See little Racquel and her hen on our homepage—too adorable!) We’ve tackled some tough subjects in the last few months—mass rape in the Congo, AIDS in Uganda; sexual enslavement of girls in Cambodia. Not that Heifer’s mission to end hunger isn’t equally serious. Remember that hunger is very much related to all those other tragedies and chronic malnutrition causes more deaths of women and children in the world than any other factor. But those kids and animals, and the hope and joy in the stories you’ll “hear” from women like the ones quoted above whose lives have been changed by some chickens or a cow— well, this is going to be the most upbeat meeting that we’ve had in awhile. So play along and enjoy it.

RESEÑA HISTÓRICA En abril de 1,905, los gobiernos de Nicaragua e Inglaterra suscribieron el Tratado Harrison-Altamirano, cuya esencia es el reconocimiento por parte de Inglaterra de la soberanía de Nicaragua sobre el territorio de la Reserva Mosquitia, y el compromiso del Estado nicaragüense a una serie de concesiones que ofrecieran una garantía de sobrevivencia para los pobladores de ella. Estas garantías eran, entre otras, la exención del servicio militar por un período determinado, concesión de tierras y otras. En 1921, la Bragman's Bluff Lumber Company suscribió un contrato con la comunidad de Karatá, donde le concedía 80,000 acres de tierra para la explotación de pinos. Como efecto de las actividades e infraestructuras creada por la compañía, muchas comunidades indígenas actuales, surgieron como tal. Posteriormente, la comunidad de Lamlaya se convirtió en una puerta para la entrada y salida de la explotación de riquezas desde el interior de la Región hacia PUERTO CABEZAS.

  • Overview Print Page Close Window
    World Directory of Minorities Americas MRG Directory –> Nicaragua –> Nicaragua Overview Print Page Close Window Nicaragua Overview Updated on 3 June 2008 Environment Peoples History Governance Current state of minorities and indigenous peoples Environment Nicaragua is bordered on the north by Honduras and on the south by Costa Rica. Over 90 per cent of its people, and the centres of government and the economy are located on the narrow Pacific Plains. The majority of Nicaragua's minorities live in the very sparsely populated tropical Atlantic lowlands, which comprise over 56% of the national territory. Peoples Main languages: Spanish, English Creole, Miskitu, Sumu, Rama Main religions: Christianity (Roman Catholic, Evangelical, Moravian, Episcopal) Main minority groups: Miskitu, Creoles (9%, CIA 2007), Mayangna (Sumu), Garífuna, Rama Nicaragua's indigenous minorities (5%, CIA 2007) comprise five different groups speaking six different languages. Their communities are located mainly in the rainforests and lagoons of the Atlantic Coast Region. It contains the nation's richest reserves of natural resources and the second largest tropical jungle in the Americas after the Amazon in Brazil. Nicaragua also has substantial minorities of Middle East and East Asian origin. History Nicaragua is unique in Latin American colonial history. It was colonized simultaneously on the western Pacific side by Spain and on the eastern Atlantic coast by Britain. Under Spanish rule the indigenous Central and Pacific coast populations were almost annihilated. Many were enslaved and shipped to South America to work in Spanish colonial precious metal mines. Over time the remaining indigenous groups mixed with the Spanish colonizers, out of which evolved the dominant Spanish-speaking, Catholic mestizo culture of today.

  • Nicaragua's Failed Revolution
    NICARAGUA’S FAILED REVOLUTION THE INDIGENOUS STRUGGLE FOR SANEAMIENTO NICARAGUA’S FAILED REVOLUTION THE INDIGENOUS STRUGGLE FOR SANEAMIENTO Acknowledgements This report is dedicated to the courageous struggle of the Indigenous and Afro-descendent communities for Saneamiento in Nicaragua. The report was authored by Anuradha Mittal with contribution from Josh Mayer, research assistance by Elizabeth Fraser, Elena Teare, Naomi Maisel, Andy Currier, and Janhavi Mittal, and editorial assistance from Frederic Mousseau. Forests of the World provided the map on Current Land Use, Indigenous/Afro-descendent Territories and Protected Areas. Field research was conducted by Anuradha Mittal, with assistance from several individuals, who are not named so their long- term commitment to this work is not threatened. We are deeply grateful for their support. Names and details that could reveal the identity of those interviewed have been withheld to ensure their safety. The fear of invasions, killings, and kidnappings, that is silencing the Indigenous communities in Nicaragua, makes this report all the more urgent. We are deeply grateful to the many individual and foundation donors who make our work possible. Thank you.

Without their testimonies and stories told, it would not have been possible to carry out this evaluation. Our gratitude to the Nidia White team, who provided their support, guidance and information that was relevant to carry out the field research, but also for their great commitment to the development of their communities and those who seek strategies to contribute to the eradication of the violence. We thank World Vision Nicaragua, for providing conditions and providing information to successfully complete this evaluation report.

  • Las Tortugas Marinas En Centroamérica Se Cuentan Entre Los
    PREFACIO as tortugas marinas en Centroamérica se cuentan entre los recursos naturales compartidos más valorados ecológica y económicamente. A causa de sus hábitos migratorios y su amplia dis- Ltribución, el consumo de las tortugas marinas y sus productos en un país tiene implicaciones para el manejo y la conservación de esas especies en países vecinos. Verdaderamente, las característi- cas extraordinarias del ciclo de vida de las tortugas marinas requieren una responsabilidad para el manejo y la conservación efectivos de las poblaciones migratorias, que se extiende aún más allá de los Gobiernos de América Central para incluir los Estados de distribución a través de los océanos adya- centes. Para lograr el manejo sustentable, sea para propósitos de consumo o no consumo, un marco regulatorio armonizado y un régimen de manejo compatible de la administración deben ser aplicados entre los Estados de distribución. Con este fin, varios tratados internacionales alentan la acción colab- orativa hacia objetivos compartidos. En el caso de la Convención para el Comercio Internacional de Especies Fauna y la Flora Silvestre en Peligro de Extinción (CITES), el objetivo es aminorar las ame- nazas asociadas con el comercio de especies en peligro de extinción. Otros tratados, incluyendo el Protocolo con respecto de Áreas y Fauna Especialmente Protegidas (Protocolo SPAW) de la Convención de Cartagena (UNEP) y a la recientemente puesta en vigencia, Convención Interamericana para la Protección y la Conservación de Tortugas Marina, que fomentan explícitamente la planificación y el manejo nacional y regional. Individualmente las naciones en América Central protegen las tortugas marinas en mayor o menor grado y la mayoría de estos Estados son parte en múltiples tratados.
