A Study of the Garifuna of Belize's Toledo District Alexander Gough
Indigenous identity in a contested land: A study of the Garifuna of Belize’s Toledo district Alexander Gough This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2018 Lancaster University Law School 1 Declaration This thesis has not been submitted in support of an application for another degree at this or any other university. It is the result of my own work and includes nothing that is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated. Many of the ideas in this thesis were the product of discussion with my supervisors. Alexander Gough, Lancaster University 21st September 2018 2 Abstract The past fifty years has seen a significant shift in the recognition of indigenous peoples within international law. Once conceptualised as the antithesis to European identity, which in turn facilitated colonial ambitions, the recognition of indigenous identity and responding to indigenous peoples’ demands is now a well-established norm within the international legal system. Furthermore, the recognition of this identity can lead to benefits, such as a stake in controlling valuable resources. However, gaining tangible indigenous recognition remains inherently complex. A key reason for this complexity is that gaining successful recognition as being indigenous is highly dependent upon specific regional, national and local circumstances. Belize is an example of a State whose colonial and post-colonial geographies continue to collide, most notably in its southernmost Toledo district. Aside from remaining the subject of a continued territorial claim from the Republic of Guatemala, in recent years Toledo has also been the battleground for the globally renowned indigenous Maya land rights case.

Birds of the Cayo District, British Honduras
No. 11,— Birds of the Cayo District, British Honduras By Oliver L. Austin, Jr. A substantial contribution toward the expenses of the Mason- Blodgett Expedition from the William and Adelaide Barbour Fund made it possible for me to accompany Mr. Gregory Mason to Central America during the spring of 1928. The main purposes of the expedi tion were archaeology and ethnology, but it was considered that, in as much as the route lay through a region so interesting and so little worked ornithologically, the opportunity for research in this field should not be neglected. On March 15, 1928, Mason and I left Belize, British Honduras, for El Cayo, which we reached March 18, traveling up the Belize River by motor launch. I spent the next three days collecting there, while Mason observed and studied a Maya religious fiesta at the neighboring villages of Succotz and Benque Viejo. The fiesta finished, Mason in tended to spend most of his time moving about from village to village by pack train, studying the native Indian tribes. It is nearly impossible to study birds, when one must needs spend one’s whole day in the saddle on a short-gaited mule, so it behooved me to find some more permanent base from which to work. The Mengel Mahogany Company was more than hospitable, and made me very comfortable for two weeks at their headquarters at Camp 6, about twelve miles south of El Cayo. For their many kindnesses to me, I shall always feel indebted to the manager and his wife, Mr. and Mrs.

Sea level rise, increasing frequency of large tropical cyclones, loss of reef-building corals and other effects are projected to result in direct economic losses consuming over one-fifth of the gross domestic product of nations in the region by 2100. Resilient mangroves shorelines provide multiple buffers against climate change effects. In addition to serving as habitat for marine species and wildlife, mangroves also provide storm protection for coastal communities, a buffer against coastal erosion, carbon sinks, and additional resiliency for economically important habitat such as coral reef. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) in Belize has initiated community-based adaptation projects to educate local populations and stakeholders about these emerging problems and to implement “no regrets” adaptation to climate change effects. Understanding of climate change science varies among demographics and opinion leaders within Belize but the value of mangrove habitat for storm protection and fish habitat is generally accepted.

1.0 Overview of IDB Invest Scope of Review BSI Has an Annual Crushing
IDBInvest Belize Sugar Industries Limited 1.0 Overview of IDB Invest Scope of Review BSI has an annual crushing capacity of 1.3 million tons of sugarcane, with an average daily milling throughput of 6,800 tons. The mill is in Tower Hill, Orange Walk District, and receives sugarcane from more than 5,000 independent cane suppliers, of which some 1,000 are women. Ninety per cent of farmers are small holders with farm sizes less than 8 ha, of which 35% are less than 2 ha. BSI produces enough sugar to meet the demand of the domestic sugar market, with the balance exported as raw and food-grade sugar products to refineries in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and CARICOM. Sugar accounts for 60% of Belize's agricultural exports. BSI also owns and operates a 31.5 MW cogeneration energy power plant (Belcogen) which powers the sugar operations and exports to the national public grid, providing 15% of the country needs (70GWh), increasing Belize’s energy security. The country is heavily reliant on imported energy. BSI agricultural operations and sugar milling facilities are certified by SQF Kosher, Fair Trade, and ProTerra. The latter standard covers all the important challenges relating to large-scale production of agricultural commodities along the whole value chain. It is applicable for all agricultural commodities worldwide, providing compliance with environmental and social criteria as well as Health and Safety Regulations. It also covers key components such as protection of high conservation value areas, protection of children, and of the rights of communities, indigenous people, and small holders.
