Накратко на български

Влиянието на добивната индустрия върху коренните народи в Амазония се проследява от ерата на каучука до днес. Това помага за анализа на международните закони срещу културния геноцид и дава възможност на засегнатите общности да документират собствените си истории.

Trade, Trauma and Tradition: Extractive industries, cultural genocide and Indigenous resistence in the 1900s and today

The Trade Trauma and Tradition (TTTRAD) project examined the historical and ongoing impact of extractive industries on Amazonian Indigenous peoples, during the rubber boom of the early 20th century and today. A century on for the rubber era Indigenous frontline defenders are still being killed with impunity where their efforts conflict with corporate and mafia interests. This project worked to empower indigenous peoples to document and share their stories and provide analysis of the effectiveness of international laws to prevent cultural genocide today. Objectives of the Project: The core objectives of the TTTRAD project included: 1. Documenting the historical and modern impact of extractive industries on the Indigenous peoples of the Predio Putumayo, Colombia 2. Training Indigenous communities in the use of digital media to create participatory documentaries and digital storytelling productions 3. Conducting legal research on the effectiveness of European and international laws in preventing business-related genocide today. 4. Promoting reconciliation with the past by amplifying the voices of Indigenous peoples affected by past atrocities, including those perpetrated by the Peruvian Amazon Company The project was designed and implemented in collaboration with the Bora, Muinane, Okaina, and Uitoto peoples of the Predio Putumayo in Colombia. Communities had a central role in project design and implementation throughout the project, with a focus on allowing them to tell their own stories in their own words.

Цел на проекта

This project studies Amazonian indigenous peoples’ search for justice and protection from the devastating impacts of European funded extractive industry activities during the rubber boom in the early 1900s and today. The approach is multidisciplinary (MD) crossing genocide, human rights, anthropology, history, social psychololgy and digital media studies (DH). It will produce a groundbreaking feature length documentary investigating the genocidal regime of the British registered Peruvian Amazon Company; the resurgence of the peoples of the region from less than 300 survivors of the rubber boom; and, their search for reconciliation and prevention of a similar business-related genocide today.The documentary will be informed by innovative research on the role and potential of European and its Member States law and policy to prevent business related genocide in Amazonia. The project empowers indigenous peoples through participatory video and digital storytelling (DST) to tell their history in their own way and words) [DST productions are usually 1-5 minute videos which can be made on mobile phones] It’s a story of genocide, resilience, reconciliation and the role of their own laws and cultural practices in their revival as peoples.In little over 30 years the PACs operations in the Predio Putumayo, a place the size of Belgium, led to the death of over 30,000 indigenous people [some estimates go as high as 100,000 dead]. Less than 300 survived, A hundred years on, from the end of the rubber boom, indigenous peoples in the Amazon are are again facing severe business-related threats to their lives, lands and culture. This time the threats come mainly from oil, mining and the agri-business sector.This project is timely asking what the European Union can do to help prevent business- related ecocide (massive environmental destruction) and cultural genocide (destruction of indigenous peoples’ cultural integrity) today.
