LAND AND INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THE AMAZON

TERRITORIAL OF INDIGENOUS
I FIRST HUMAN FACTOR: THE INDIAN
When it comes to ordering, think first, that finally justice will be generally for the people involved and settled in the Amazon territory and in particular for indigenous peoples, peoples who up until today, are little known or known very wrong, therefore, without due recognition and participation of these actors in the land without consider the contributions of traditional knowledge for the benefit of research and science in the proper use of natural resources will always be excluded from development policies.

currently the leading cause of injustice lies at the unwise lotizada and land concessions, without prior consideration of the needs of indigenous peoples, marginalized from the development opportunities that often focuses only on large cities, where, rural people should be the real actors of economic growth.

One of the finest examples of sorting redeemable, was initiated by the communities of the Nanay basin, although this effort is fruitless, because nothing is sustainable, with documents that are only in paper, unfortunately, lack of vision of technical and political, have done much damage to these initiatives, how it serves to teach the right way, then when communities are condemned to oblivion, regardless of the economic potential that have for development?.

Although there is international law which states that indigenous peoples have the right to choose the formulas of their own development, the state instead of encouraging this transformation, the enterprise development community, developing energy alternatives and technologies middle sustainable use of natural resources, is giving impetus to dollar investments, only swell the pockets of big capitalists, avoiding responding to local initiatives, such as rural housing, which require smaller investment funds, among other alternatives Native folder Loreto.

Given these observations, we could start a macro regional zoning, properly ordering the region, in areas of exploitation for economic sectors and areas of nature reserves and buffer.

A notorious neglect is that to date there is no rural development policy, and communities have received attention only to their problems, for political, driven by obscure interests in many cases, misinterpreting the location, existence and meaning of ethnic cultures is therefore important that nothing is principal, but the development of these people, otherwise, only being condemned to a permanent social and economic decline.

II TABLES OF DIALOGUE TO ACTION
roundtables, exclusive and highly desirable for the personal interests of politicians and indigenous leaders, out of step with reality, the formula is nice summary for those at the bottom, do not seek solve the problems of Amazonian indigenous people, the proof is that to date, there is noticeable participation of indigenous peoples in general, unless he is winning, exclusive formula imposed by the Government, together with certain command group, which are not the exclusive representation of ALL, much less have demonstrated contributions to proposals for direct impact, understandable and applicable in the short term for the benefit of indigenous Amazonian peoples.

The solution to problems, to develop indigenous peoples, is in the dialogue, but, with the complete marginalization and neglect, the voice of the true representatives, problems are bound to be silenced in the future. The development must begin with the participation of communities in managing their own resources, before, to provide rural Internet, you must first listen, what are your top priorities, and before that, ads that have invested millions of dollars in roads and schools.

should also listen to the fishermen and gatherers before, encouraging private investment and oil LotizaciĆ³n, you must first listen and serve farmers and artisans, that is, are marginalized, without a hearing, although do pseudo leaders and knowledgeable of the issues, unresolved to date, the many priorities, made to the Chair of the Council of Ministers, in separate memorial and reminder letters, all thanks marginalization and lack of those who believe and are gaining political benefits, regardless of serious injury caused to the Amazon causes, these ministers and regional authorities, if conducive to the marginalization and exclusion of indigenous Amazonian peoples.


RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Install the negotiating table, with Indigenous Peoples in the Loreto region, and that is the largest indigenous population concentrated indigenous democratizing access, unlike the one installed in the city of Lima that is inaccessible.
2. Designing, indigenous representation in more than two organizations, such as AIDESEP CONAP and avoiding the marginalization of other ethnic groups not represented in these organizations, the officers of Dialogue in Lima.
3. The Government should promote constructive dialogue and inclusive of all ethnic and Amazon basins, in Dialogues in Loreto.
4. Working as part of a rural development policy, with emphasis on Indigenous Peoples.
5. Address the most urgent demands of indigenous peoples, sent to the PCM in two memorials, no solution or response to date.
6. Thought of as fundamental, the Rural Housing program for indigenous peoples through bonds of family room or another.
7. Give priority to the implementation of renewable energy and environmental sanitation in indigenous peoples.
