Introduction In the last two decades complementary and alternative medicines and their therapies became a very important aspect of health delivery in many developing countries. During the 90's the utilization of such therapies by of European, North and Latin American population has been growing rapidly. Traditional/indigenous medicine in the Region of the Americas has been practiced for centuries. The knowledge and practices of indigenous health systems cover the needs of the communities to some extent. However, the search for complementary services and the development and strengthening of strategies designed to establish national health systems that respond to the characteristics of the beneficiary population are valid approaches to improve the health of both indigenous and non-indigenous populations. With this in mind, the PAHO Division of Health Systems and Services Development decided to create a working group in collaboration with WHO-HQ to develop the following objectives: ! Formulate recommendations to PAHO in the development of the technical cooperation in complementary and alternative therapies (CAMT). ! Identify sources of technical and financial support for Latin America and the Caribbean. ! Develop mechanisms of coordination in the areas of complementary and alternative medicine and traditional/indigenous medicines and therapies within PAHO different Programs 2. Definitions Traditional Medicine and Therapies It is a medical knowledge that came long before the development and spread of Western medicine and it reflects a country's culture, history and beliefs. It is often passed on orally from generation to generation. Major Systems in Traditional/Indigenous Medicine ! Traditional Chinese traditional medicine Ayurvedic medicine Unani medicine Indigenous medicine ! Non Traditional Homeopathy Chiropractic Therapies ! Medication therapies Medical plants & herbal medicine Mineral materials 1 Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization Animal materials Diet & nutrition ! Non medication therapies Acupuncture Manual therapy Traditional exercises (Qigong, Taiji, and Yoga) Physical, mental, spiritual and mind-body therapies Complementary/Alternative Medicine It refers to the medicine that does not play a major role within the national health care systems. In most counties where Western medicine assumes full responsibility for national health care, most forms of traditional medicine and other therapies are considered to be complementary or alternative systems of medicine. 3. Utilization and situation in different countries The demand for alternative and complementary therapies is growing in many countries, but the trends are different. While in developed countries the trend of using alternative therapies is because of the search for better health care, in developing countries this demand has to do with economic issues or because, as in the case of the indigenous medicine, it is the only available source of health care. 3.1 Traditional/Complementary and Alternative Medicine and Therapies The utilization of TRM/CAMT by the population in the developed counties is currently estimated as follows: Country % population Country % population utilizing utilizing Australia 60 United Kingdom 90 Belgium 40 U.S.A 40 France 49 Singapore 45 For Latin America, in Chile, 71% of the population accepts CAMT. In Colombia 40% of the population used CAMT. No data are available for other countries in Latin America. Situation analysis in Latin America To make an assessment of the situation a questionnaire was submitted to the Member Countries, 15 countries responded (see table in annex # 5). The results can be summarized as follows: 2 Working Group on Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicines and Therapies ! 11 out of 15 do have norms, policies and regulations in relation to at least one of the CAMT disciplines. ! 8 out of 15 countries do have a national program based at the Ministry of Health. ! 9 out of 15 countries do have an academic program in CAMT. ! The most common disciplines are herbal medicine, homeopathy, acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine & chiropractic. 3.2 Indigenous medicine In the World Health Organization estimate, and in many developing countries, approximately 80% of the rural population, indigenous as well as non- rely on traditional medicine for their basic health care. This situation results from the limited access to Western medicine as well personal preferences. In Bolivia where 50,5% of the population is indigenous, the proportion of the population with access to Western medicine ranges from 11 to 70%. There is strong preference for traditional medicine. For example in southern Cochabamba, over 55% of the population opt for traditional medicine. Situation analysis in Latin America To make an assessment of the situation, available data on international resolutions i.e. ILO Convention 1691, PAHO Resolution CD37.R52, and information from 17 countries were reviewed (see table in annex # 5) The results can be summarized as follows: ! 9 out of 17 countries have ratified ILO Convention 169. ! All 17 countries as PAHO Member Countries have ratified Resolution CD37.R5 ! 9 out of 17 countries have laws and resolutions related to indigenous medicine ! 11 out of 17 countries do have a governmental technical unit in charge of indigenous issues including indigenous medicine. ! 4 out of 17 have a training program in indigenous medicine ! 7 out of 17 have a research program in indigenous medicine 4. Challenges and Issues ! Various forms of traditional medicine have developed in the context of different cultures and history in geographic regions without a parallel development of international standards and effective methods for evaluating traditional medicine. 1 ILO Convention, 1989, Article 25, 2. Health services shall, to the extent possible, be community-based. These services shall be planned and administered in co-operation with the peoples concerned and take into account their economic, geographic, social and cultural conditions as well as their traditional preventive care, healing practices and medicines 2 Resolution PAHO-CD37R5, 19932. 2.d. To promote the transformation of health systems and support the development of alternative models of care, including traditional medicine and research into quality and safety, for indigenous populations. 3 Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization ! The quantity and quality of research data on safety and efficacy are insufficient to evaluate the potential of traditional medicine, to contribute to the health care of countries.

  • Makelawen Medicine? : the Pharmaceutical Commercialization of Traditional
    Fall 08 Makelawen Medicine? : The Pharmaceutical Commercialization of Traditional Makelawen Medicine? : The Pharmaceutical Commercialization of the Traditional Mapuche Practice Lydia Norby-Adams December, 2015 Abstract The Mapuche people make up roughly 9% of the Chilean population and are known for their staunch resistance against colonizing forces and for their fight to maintain cultural integrity. Mapuche medicine is an integral part of this culture and is characterized by its magical- spiritual components and an intimate connection with the natural ecosystem and the plants that it provides. In an attempt for cultural assimilation the Chilean government integrated Mapuche medicinal practices into Chile’s national health care plan in the 1990’s, opening several Mapuche clinics alongside western hospitals. This was met with such success, both among the indigenous and non-indigenous populations, that the Herbolarías de Chile picked up on this trend and opened the Makelawen Farmacia Mapuche. This pharmacy chain sells concentrated forms of medicinal plants traditionally used in Mapuche medicine. As the popularity of this pharmacy chain has increased the way that the Mapuche people practice medicine has changed, making the Mapuche case an apt case study in the larger debate of the dangers of the increasing pharmaceuticalization of herbal medicine. The aim of this paper is to explore how and why the Mapuche practice of medicine has changed in response to the increased popularity of this medicine brought about by the Makelawen pharmacies. My research shows that the Mapuche practice of medicine has changed across three dimensions which are production, knowledge, and implementation of medicinal herbs and that these changes are not just proof of positive cultural integration, but rather evidence of the dilution and loss of Mapuche medicinal culture.

  • Unesco Women, Intangible Heritage and Development A
    UNESCO WOMEN, INTANGIBLE HERITAGE AND DEVELOPMENT A FEASIBILITY STUDY LATIN AMERICA DORA CARDACI May, 2001 PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS with REGARD to the LATIN AMERICAN REGION Latin America is an extremely varied region, demographically, socio- economically and culturally. The differentiation occurs not only between the more than thirty countries that make up the region, but also within each nation. Several authors (Riveiro, 1977, Bonfil, 1991) have sought to analyze the principal determinants of Latin American cultural pluralism. They point out that the diversity is due to the different sizes of each country’s total population and territory, to the resources and contrasts peculiar to each nation as well as the historical development and current profiles of the prevailing economic and political structures. However, the original ethnic base of the population acts as a general background, without which it is not possible to understand the cultural diversity found among Latin American nations. (Bonfil 1991:26) The total population of Latin America is more than five hundred million inhabitants, and included in this number there are more than four hundred different ethnic groups. Taking into account these complex circumstances, plus the limitations of time and money placed on this feasibility project, the author of this document decided to obtain and analyze information from four countries representative of the Latin American region as a whole: Mexico, Chile, Peru and Brazil. The four countries selected combine a diversity of situations amongst

  • Epistemics and Social Relations in Mapuche Healing and Chilean Primary Care Medicine
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Accounting for Children’s Illnesses: Epistemics and Social Relations in Mapuche Healing and Chilean Primary Care Medicine A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology by Jennifer Rhae Guzmán 2012 © Copyright by Jennifer Rhae Guzmán 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Accounting for Children’s Illnesses: Epistemics and Social Relations in Mapuche Healing and Chilean Primary Care Medicine by Jennifer Rhae Guzmán Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Elinor Ochs, Chair This dissertation examines how indigenous Mapuche children’s illnesses are defined in Mapuche ethnomedicine and Chilean primary care medicine. Based on 11 months of fieldwork in the Araucanía Region of Chile, the study documents the illness account genres of pelotun pronouncements and presenting concerns, which drive the respective diagnostic processes of these two medical systems. The study draws on a data corpus that includes videorecordings of 32 pediatric acute care appointments with general practice physicians and 45 consultations with Mapuche healers. It combines ethnographic and discourse analytic methods to explore how indigenous families and the medical practitioners with whom they seek care negotiate the rights and responsibilities that are associated with representing children’s illness trajectories for the purposes of diagnosis. The study asks what stands to be gained and what is at stake in the representation of illness experience and the cultural construction of clinical realities. To address this question, the study adopts a linguistic anthropological view of genre that sees generic ii conventions as flexible and successful performances as social achievements.

Cooper* ABSTRACT This Article explores the plight of the Aborigines of Taiwan and the legal protections that exist for their Traditional Knowledge. While Taiwan continues to face international isolation with a diminished number of states recognizing the Republic of China as the seat of China, the island's government has taken limited steps to recognize language, cultural, and economic rights of its Indigenous peoples. International law has not been helpful in protecting Traditional Knowledge, but Taiwan could use its vast economic resources and positive track record in protecting some of these rights to further its goals of international recognition. This Article details the current regulation of Traditional Knowledge, both internationally and within Taiwan, and calls for a new international treaty in which the Republic of China could take * The author is Associate Dean, Experiential Learning, Professor of Law, and Director of International Legal Studies at California Western School of Law in San Diego, United States.
