As a linguist, I consider myselfex- tremely lucky. Not only is Panará a fascinating language, but it is spoken by beautiful people. To all the Panará I am extremely thankful, jy ra inkin pyt- insi. Special thanks go to my teacher and friend Perankô Panará, my adoptive family, and the many people who took the time to talk to me and help me understand their language, too numerous to name individually. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my promotors Jan-Wouter Zwart and Francesc Queixalós. Jan-Wouter has supervised my research with encouragement and support beyond what I could have reasonably expected. His feedback and discussion have been integral to my growth both as a lin- guist and as an academic. Francesc supervised me through my MA in Paris vii–Diderot, and saw me off to the field with encouragement and good advice (modèstia, prudència i bon humor amb els indis). I was fortunate to count with his input also in my PhD. I am also thankful to my assessment committee, Amy Rose Deal, Jack Hoeksema and Leo Wetzels not only for reading my manuscript and accepting to approve it, but also for their feedback. In Brazil, I was lucky to find many people who have supported me along the way. I am indebted to Luciana Storto from the University of São Paulo for not only providing me with institutional affiliation, but also for her constant support and feedback. In Belém, Denny Moore provided endless advice and guidance in the many aspects of Amazonian fieldwork, including access to his safehouse for lost linguists. Bruna Franchetto got me in touch with the Panará in the first place, and she saw me off to my first visit to Nãsepotiti. My gratitude also extends to Hein van der Voort, Joshua Birchall, Rose Costa, Karol Obert, Filomena Sandalo, Kris Stenzel, Suzi Lima, Bruna Fernanda Lima. xii I would like to especially thank the Instituto Socioambiental, in particular André Villas Bôas, Paulo Junqueira and the Xingu team. Finally, I would like to thank the staff at FUNAI and CNPq who helped with my authorization processes. Being a Panará researcher allowed me to join the select club of Panará scholars. As it turns out, all of them are nice generous people. Luciana Dourado not only wrote the first scholarly work on the Panará language, but shealso sent me cherished advice and material. My relentless fieldwork companion Myriam Lapierre Kjêpyti was an invaluable support, and most of my cur- rent understanding of the sounds of Panará exists thanks to her. I would also like to thank the anthropologists Steve Schwartzmann Sejn, Elizabeth Ewart Kârânpô, and especially Fabiano Bechelany Kjãsôti and

  • The Amazonian Conflict: Biodiversity, Native Communities and Sustainable Development (ARI)
    Area: Latin America ARI 151/2009 (Translated from Spanish) Date: 17/11/2009 The Amazonian Conflict: Biodiversity, Native Communities and Sustainable Development (ARI) Luis E. González Manrique * Theme: The resignation of the Peruvian Prime Minister, Yehude Simon, and the congressional repeal of two of the main legislative decrees that opened extensive Amazonian zones to commercial exploitation have provided a merely temporary relief to the reigning tension. The situation is similar, to varying degrees, in the other South- American countries that share the Amazon basin. Summary: In an article published in the Peruvian Press (‘El síndrome del perro del hortelano’, El Comercio, 28/X/2007), President Alan García wrote, ‘there are millions of hectares of timber idle and hundreds of mineral deposits that must remain in the ground, because we have fallen into the trap of considering that these lands –which would be productive if invested heavily in– are sacred, and that communal organisation is the original Peruvian form of organisation’. The conflict is an old one, undermining García’s allegations of foreign interference, made in veiled accusations against Venezuela and Bolivia at the protests headed by the Interethnic Association for the Development of the Peruvian Rainforest (Asociación Interétnica de Desarrollo de la Selva Peruana, Aidesp), which claims to represent 350,000 indigenous Amazonian people in 1,250 communities of 50 native ethnicities. Their leader, Alberto Pizango, was given political asylum in Nicaragua after the Bagua confrontations. What is at stake is the introduction of a model for sustainable development. For international community the economic value of Amazonian biodiversity and the contribution of deforestation to global warming are so great that their protection must be made profitable to governments in the region, offset by schemes such as carbon credits, which must go to those native communities at the forefront of rainforest protection.

  • Indigenous Knowledge, Biodiversity Conservation and Development Introduction
    Reproduced, with permission, from: Warren, D. M. 1992. Indigenous knowledge, biodiversity conservation and development. Keynote address at the International Conference on Conservation of Biodiversity in Africa: Local Initiatives and Institutional Roles, 30 August-3 September 1992, Nairobi, Kenya. Indigenous Knowledge, Biodiversity Conservation and Development Keynote Address by D. Michael Warren, Director Center for Indigenous Knowledge for Agriculture and Rural Development Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa 50011 USA International Conference on Conservation of Biodiversity in Africa: Local Initiatives and Institutional Roles National Museums of Kenya Nairobi, Kenya 30 August-3 September 1992 Revised Version - September 12, 1992 Introduction Indigenous knowledge and biodiversity are complementary phenomena essential to human development. Global awareness of the crisis concerning the conservation of biodiversity is assured following the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in June 1992 in Rio de Janeiro. Of equal concern to many world citizens is the uncertain status of the indigenous knowledge that reflects many generations of experience and problem-solving by thousands of ethnic groups across the globe. Very little of this knowledge has been recorded, yet it represents an immensely valuable data base that provides humankind with insights on how numerous communities have interacted with their changing environment including its floral and faunal resources. This presentation provides an overview of recent studies that clearly portray the active role that rural communities in Africa and other parts of the world have played in (a) generating knowledge based on a sophisticated understanding of their environment, (b) devising mechanisms to conserve and sustain their natural resources, and (c) establishing community- based organizations that serve as forums for identifying problems and dealing with them through local-level experimentation, innovation, and exchange of information with other societies.

  • Medals and Awards Gold Medal Recipients
    Medals and Awards Gold Medal Recipients The Gold Medals (Founder’s and Patron’s Medals) originated as an annual gift of fifty guineas from King William IV. It was awarded for the first time in 1831, for the encouragement and promotion of geographical science and discovery. In 1839 the Society decided that this sum should be converted into two gold medals of equal value, to be designated the Founder’s Medal and the Patron’s Medal. Today both Medals are approved by Her Majesty The Queen. Gold Medal recipients are listed in full below: 1832 Founder's Medal - Richard Lander For important services in determining the course and termination of the Niger 1833 Founder's Medal - John Biscoe For his discovery of Graham’s Land and Enderby’s Land in the Antarctic 1834 Founder's Medal - Captain Sir John Ross For his discovery of Boothia Felix and King William Land and for his famous sojourn of four winters in the Arctic 1835 Founder's Medal - Sir Alexander Burnes For his remarkable and important journeys through Persia 1836 Founder's Medal - Captain Sir George Back For his recent discoveries in the Arctic, and his memorable journey down the Great Fish River 1837 Founder's Medal - Captain Robert Fitzroy For his survey of the coasts of South America, from the Rio de la Plata to Guayaquil in Peru 1838 Founder's Medal - Colonel Francis Rawdon Chesney For valuable materials in comparative and physical geography in Syria, Mesopotamia and the delta of Susiana 1839 Founder's Medal - Thomas Simpson For tracing the hitherto unexplored coast of North America Patron's Medal - Dr.

Part I offers a survey of the (relatively few) first hand descriptions of Brazil under Portuguese colonial rule by British and Irish visitors, most of whom did not stay very long and did not venture beyond the coastal towns, from the 16th century to the beginning of the 19th century. It con- cludes with the first comprehensive history of colonial Brazil, written by an Englishman who never visited Brazil: the poet Robert Southey. Part II is a survey of the (many) books by British visitors to Brazil — and British residents in Brazil — from 1808, when the Portuguese Court, escorted by ships of the British Navy, transferred itself from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro and opened Brazil to international trade (and foreign visitors), and especially from 1822 when Brazil declared its independence from Portugal, to the Second World War — a period of more than a century in which Britain was the pre-eminent political and economic power and also had considerable social, cultural and intellectual influence in Brazil.

  • Earthwatch Annual Review 2012
    Annual Review 2012 Collecting Knowledge for a Better Planet When we at Earthwatch take a look back at the year’s work, we recognize the enormous importance of the field research conducted by our diverse, hardworking, and selfless community. Our citizen-scientist workforce contributed their time and money to conduct fieldwork on more than 50 research projects around the world. Their dedication, along with the integrity of our staff, the focus of our scientists, and the commitment of our business partners, form the building blocks of our global Earthwatch effort—an effort that is especially critical at a time when developing strategies for environmental sustainability has never been more urgent. This year, we expanded and strengthened our offerings to make our mission more accessible. In recognition of how precious time is, we increased our short field research offerings to enable people to spend a day assessing the health of forests in Oxfordshire, Boston, and San Francisco. In the U.K., we developed and piloted a new seven-day teacher training team and continued to run public events at the Royal Geographical Society to reach out to new audiences. In the U.S., we continued our outreach to high-school students in Los Angeles—some of whom had never left the city—to send them on scientific expeditions in the wilderness of North American and the coral reefs of the Caribbean. We also made an impact through our new and lasting partnerships. To preserve the woodlands of Oman, we joined forces with the National Field Research Center for Environmental Conservation on a program to study junipers and wild olive trees.
