Reclaiming What Belongs To Us - Khoi And San At Table Mountain

In October 2020, a group of people representing different Khoi and San Tribes gathered at the foot of Table Mountain in South Africa. There they have created a cultural space where they will stay for an indefinite period of time in an effort to reclaim the mountain. With the temporary huts providing a little shelter, and fire providing a little warmth, they are making it known that the mountain and the area surrounding it had once belonged to their ancestors. Bradley van Sitters is among the folks camped out at the foot of the mountain.

The Military Coup in Myanmar and Its Impact on Indigenous Peoples

February 1, 2021, the day on which the newly elected parliament had scheduled its first official parliamentary session in Myanmar after the election held in November 2020. Just hours before the scheduled sessions, the military conducted a house-raid and arrested several elected leaders and politicians, including Aung San Suu Kyi, politician, diplomat, author, and a 1991 Nobel Peace Prize laureate, and president Win Myint and other senior government figures. The Myanmar military then declared a state of emergency and imposed curfews putting restrictions on public gatherings.

Responsibility

It is important to demand that this law is complied with because it protects the environment, guarantees clean water and air, and it is a mechanism of controlling development projects to ensure that truly benefit indigenous communities.

Divide And Conquer

The right to Free, Prior and Informed Consent clearly states that the government should not force people to change their method of organisation, thinking, or decision making, nor spread inaccurate information to misinform Indigenous Peoples.

Community Meetings

In order to ensure that the right to Free, Prior and Informed Consent is complied with, there should be community meetings which make people aware of what is happening and could happen in their area. In addition to this, projects must be supervised in order to ensure that decisions made in the community meetings, are implemented during the development project.

¿Ha escuchado sobre los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible? Cultural Survival pone a su disposición este programa en idioma Bribri específicamente sobre el objetivo de número 1 enfocado a ponerle fin a la pobreza para el año 2030, considerando la suma importancia de que los pueblos Indígenas se mantengan informados en sus propios idiomas para poder involucrarse en alcanzar esta meta para el año 2030.

ODS 2 Bribri, Hambre Cero

Los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible establecidos por Naciones Unidas están estrechamente vinculado con los pueblos Indígenas y la forma de cómo pueden estar involucrados. Poder estar informados en sus propios idiomas es fundamental por lo que Cultural Survival presenta este programa en idioma Bribrí hablada por más de 6,000 personas de la comunidad Bribri en la región costarricense de Talamanca y en las montañas de la provincia de Bocas del Toro en Panamá.

Tips

In order for this right to be applied fairly, it should respect the following: 1. From the start of a project, there should be a consultation with the Indigenous People of the area; 2. There should be sufficient time devoted to ensuring that the community receive all of the information about the projects and its impacts; 3. Information should be distributed in accordance with the traditional ways of each community; 4. Any form of trying to influence the opinions of the people should be avoided; 5. All the details of decisions taken should be recorded.
