La descripción, los datos y contactos contenidos en la guía han de permitir a las empresas comunitarias, a los operadores turísticos y a los turistas nacionales y extranjeros tener referencias precisas acerca de los productos y servicios turísticos comunitarios, y por tanto, contar con un útil instrumento que facilite y viabilice una responsable y eficiente promoción y comercialización de los mismos. Para el Viceministerio de Turismo, este significativo trabajo coadyuva a la concreción de una de las políticas públicas sustantivas del proceso de cambio, como es el fortalecimiento, la consolidación y creación ampliada del turismo sostenible de base comunitaria, en todos los destinos turísticos del país; donde el principal protagonismo y beneficio repercute en las comunidades indígenas, campesinas y urbanas de la sociedad boliviana. Éste es, sin duda, el desafío más importante para hacer del turismo un instrumento eficaz de lucha contra las causas de la pobreza y la exclusión social, a partir de: la creación de empleos e ingresos sostenibles; la reafirmación cultural, social y patrimonial; así como el manejo y aprovechamiento sostenible del medio ambiente y su territorio, en la consecución de una óptima calidad de vida en las poblaciones locales y las regiones de Bolivia. Me cabe resaltar el esfuerzo de coordinación y el compromiso institucional realizado por OSEC/SWISSCONTACT, Conservación Internacional, Fundación PRAIA y PPD/PNUD, para llevar a cabo la investigación y publicación de este trascendental catálogo bilingüe, en apoyo al turismo sostenible, indígena y comunitario del país. Ricardo Cox Aranibar Viceministro de Turismo de Bolivia PRESENTATION The current guidebook Bolivia from inside marks an important step forward in the systemizing of sustainable community tourism models in Bolivia, thus providing valuable information concerning offers of tourism negotiated by 34 of the countrys most go ahead community tourist ventures. The description, information and contacts contained in the guidebook will provide community enterprises tour operators, local and foreign tourists with accurate references about community tourism products and services and therefore they will have a handy tool to facilitate and ensure their promotion and commercialization in a responsible and efficient way. For the Vice-ministry or tourism, this significant work helps to define public policies related to the process of change, such as the strengthening consolidation and extensive creation of community-based sustainable tourism in all tourist destinations with beneficial results for the indigenous rural and urban sectors of Bolivian society. This is undoubtedly the greatest challenge to transform tourism into an efficient tool to combat the causes of poverty and social exclusion based on: the creation of jobs and sustainable income, cultural, social and patrimonial reaffirmation; as well as the management and sustainable use of the environment and territory and successively an ideal standard of living in villages and regions of Bolivia. I must emphasize the effort in coordination and institutional commitment undertaken by OSEC/SWISSCONTACT, CONSERVATION INTERNATIONAL, PRAIA FOUNDATION and PPD/PNUD for carrying out the research and publication of this incomparable bilingual catalogue in favor of sustainable indigenous and community tourism in Bolivia.

  • Mitigation of Environmental Extremes As a Possible Indicator of Extended Habitat Sustainability for Lakes on Early Mars
    Invited Paper Mitigation of Environmental Extremes as a Possible Indicator of Extended Habitat Sustainability for Lakes on Early Mars Nathalie A. Cabrol*a, Edmond A. Grina, Andrew N. Hockb aNASA Ames Research Center/SETI Carl Sagan Center, Space Science Division, MS 245-3. Moffett Field, CA 94035- 1000, USA; bUCLA. Dpt. of Earth & Space Sciences. 595 Charles Young Drive East, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1567. ABSTRACT The impact of individual extremes on life, such as UV radiation (UVR), temperatures, and salinity is well documented. However, their combined effect in nature is not well-understood while it is a fundamental issue controlling the evolution of habitat sustainability within individual bodies of water. Environmental variables combine in the Bolivian Altiplano to produce some of the highest, least explored and most poorly understood lakes on Earth. Their physical environment of thin atmosphere, high ultraviolet radiation, high daily temperature amplitude, ice, sulfur-rich volcanism, and hydrothermal springs, combined with the changing climate in the Andes and the rapid loss of aqueous habitat provide parallels to ancient Martian lakes at the Noachian/Hesperian transition 3.7-3.5 Ga ago. Documenting this analogy is one of the focuses of the High-Lakes Project (HLP). The geophysical data we collected on three of them located up to 5,916 m elevation suggests that a combination of extreme factors does not necessarily translate into a harsher environment for life. Large and diverse ecosystems adapt to UVR reaching 200%-216% that of sea level in bodies of water sometimes no deeper than 50 cm, massive seasonal freeze-over, and unpredictable daily evolution of UVR and temperature.

  • From “Invisible Natives” to an “Irruption of Indigenous Identity”? Two Decades of Change Among the Tacana in the Northern Bolivian Amazon
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Sondra Wentzel provided by Institutional Repository of the Ibero-American Institute, Berlin From “invisible natives” to an “irruption of indigenous identity”? Two decades of change among the Tacana in the northern Bolivian Amazon “Al final nos dimos cuenta todos que éramos tacanas” (Tacana leader 2001, quoted in Herrera 2009: 1). 1. Introduction: The Tacana In the mid 1980s, a time of redemocratization and structural adjustment policies in Bolivia, consultations about a region suitable for field research on the situation of indigenous peoples in the context of “Amazonian development” led me to the Province of Iturralde in the lowland north of the Department of La Paz (Figure 1). The culture of its indigenous inhabitants, the Tacana,1 had been documented by German researchers in the early 1950s (Hissink & Hahn 1961; 1984). Also, under the motto La Marcha al Norte, the region was the focus of large infrastructure and agro industrial projects which had already stimulated spontaneous colonization, but local people had little information about these activities nor support to defend their rights and interests. Between 1985 and 1988, I conducted about a year of village level field re- search in the region, mainly in Tumupasa, an ex-Franciscan mission among the Tacana founded in 1713 and transferred to its current location around 1770, San- ta Ana, a mixed community founded in 1971, and 25 de Mayo, a highland colonist cooperative whose members had settled between Tumupasa and Santa Ana from 1979 1 Tacana branch of the Pano-Tacanan language family, whose other current members are the Araona, Cavineño, Ese Ejja, and Reyesano (Maropa).

  • Field Excursion Report 2010
    Presented at “Short Course on Geothermal Drilling, Resource Development and Power Plants”, organized by UNU-GTP and LaGeo, in Santa Tecla, El Salvador, January 16-22, 2011. GEOTHERMAL TRAINING PROGRAMME LaGeo S.A. de C.V. GEOTHERMAL ACTIVITY AND DEVELOPMENT IN SOUTH AMERICA: SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE STATUS IN BOLIVIA, CHILE, ECUADOR AND PERU Ingimar G. Haraldsson United Nations University Geothermal Training Programme Orkustofnun, Grensasvegi 9, 108 Reykjavik ICELAND [email protected] ABSTRACT South America holds vast stores of geothermal energy that are largely unexploited. These resources are largely the product of the convergence of the South American tectonic plate and the Nazca plate that has given rise to the Andes mountain chain, with its countless volcanoes. High-temperature geothermal resources in Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador and Peru are mainly associated with the volcanically active regions, although low temperature resources are also found outside them. All of these countries have a history of geothermal exploration, which has been reinvigorated with recent changes in global energy prices and the increased emphasis on renewables to combat global warming. The paper gives an overview of their main regions of geothermal activity and the latest developments in the geothermal sector are reviewed. 1. INTRODUCTION South America has abundant geothermal energy resources. In 1999, the Geothermal Energy Association estimated the continent’s potential for electricity generation from geothermal resources to be in the range of 3,970-8,610 MW, based on available information and assuming the use of technology available at that time (Gawell et al., 1999). Subsequent studies have put the potential much higher, as a preliminary analysis of Chile alone assumes a generation potential of 16,000 MW for at least 50 years from geothermal fluids with temperatures exceeding 150°C, extracted from within a depth of 3,000 m (Lahsen et al., 2010).

    INTRACONTINENTAL SEISMICITY AND NEOGENE DEFORMATION OF THE ANDEAN FOREARC IN THE REGION OF ARICA (18.5ºS-19.5ºS) Claire DAVID (1), Joseph MARTINOD (1, 2), Diana COMTE (1), Gérard HÉRAIL (2), Henri HAESSLER (3), (1) Universidad de Chile, Casilla 2777, Santiago, Chile ([email protected], [email protected]) (2) IRD, LMTG, 38 rue des 36 Ponts, 31400 Toulouse, France ([email protected], [email protected]). (3) IPGS, 5 rue Rene Descartes, 67084 Strasbourg Cedex France, ([email protected] ) KEY WORDS : Forearc, Shortening, Tilting, Intraplate Seismicity, Altiplano. INTRODUCTION The superficial crustal seismic activity in Chile is remarkably moderate. Almost all the Chilean earthquakes are located on the subduction plane, and most of the intracontinental seismicity that results from the growth of the Cordillera occurs on the Eastern side of the Andes, in Bolivia and Argentina. Geological data, indeed, in agreement with the seismological measurements, show that the Chilean forearc suffered very moderate deformations in the Neogene [e.g. Lamb et al., 1997; García et al., 1997], in spite most of the surrection of the Altiplano probably occurred at that time [e.g. Gregory-Wodzicki, 2000]. The only region in Chile where significant crustal seismicity has been reported in the forearc is the northernmost part of the country, near Arica, where a permanent seismic network evidences an intracontinental forearc seismicity that vanishes south of 19.7°S. In this work, we describe the main characteristics of this seismicity, the associated
