Chapter 6 Sacred Sites and Changing Dimensions of Andean Indigenous Identities in Space and Time
Developing a livelihood: Conservation model for the Kakamega Forest region, Kenya using experiences from Berchtesgaden National Park, Germany
Active participation of local community of Kakamega Forest in conservation has rather been elusive. Conservation efforts directed at the Forest have resulted into more resource use restrictions instead of access. Furthermore, the community faces the threat of human-wildlife conflict. Achieving a resilient livelihood and active forest conservation among the Community has therefore been a challenge. Against this background, the study sought to deve…

The Mobilization of Human Resources by Non-Governmental Organizations in the Bolivian Andes
In the tropical Andes, a long tradition exists in the utilization and mobilization of rural resources. In certain periods, agriculture and settlement patterns were well adapted to the specific local environmental conditions; at other times, constraints of the natural environment, of historical burdens, and of current social, economic, and political problems contributed to widespread conditions of poverty and underdevelopment. This paper examines …
The geography of Manitoba: Its land and its people
Manitoba is more than one of Canada's three prairie provinces. Encompassing 649,950 square kilometres, its territory ranges from Canadian Shield to grassland, parkland, and subarctic tundra. Its physical geography has been shaped by ice-age glaciers, while its human geography reflects the influences of its various inhabitants, from the First Nations who began arriving over 9,000 years ago, to its most recent immigrants. This fascinating range of …
Nature Conservation, Traditional Living Space, or Tourist Attraction? The Hohe Tauern National Park, Austria
By international standards, national parks are natural areas where ecosystems, for the most part, have not been substantially modified by human activity, and which have been set aside to protect and preserve the features of the landscape. In Austria the Hohe Tauern National Park represents a high mountain area which combines a diversified alpine landscape and ecosystem with the century-old traditions of local population. Based on initiatives begi…
The Brenner Freeway (Austria-Italy): Mountain Highway of Controversy
Alpine passes have historically provided a transportation and communication link between the core regions of Western and Central Europe and those of Mediterranean Europe. Due to the geographic advantages of its low elevation and the possibility of crossing the Alps on a single pass, the Brenner route has had an eminent transportation function at least since Roman times. Today, the Brenner Pass is crossed by a major railway line, a highway, and a …

Environmental Stress and Sustainable Development in the Tropical Andes
This paper addresses two of the principal themes that affect the viability of, and the future prospects for, Third World mountains. It summarizes research experiences of the author from the Andean test area of the UNU Highland-Lowland Interaction Systems Programme in Ecuador, and the results from the international workshop on Sustainable Uses for Steep Slopes organized by the Development Strategies for Fragile Lands (DESFIL) Program in Ecuador. T…

The Perception of Stress by Campesinos: A Profile from the Ecuadorian Sierra
The objective of this paper is to analyse and assess environmental and socio-economic stress factors as perceived by Andean campesinos (peasant farmers). The study region chosen is a section of the Central Ecuadorian Sierra, along a profile which extends from the upper limit of human settlement at the foot of the Chimborazo (about 4,200 m) to the gate of the Oriente around Puyo (around 900 m). This profile offers a wide variety of environmental c…
Del Valle al Monte: Altitudinal Patterns of Agricultural Activities in the Patate-Pelileo Area of Ecuador
Since the pioneer studies of Carl Troll considerable work has been done on the geoecology of tropical highlands in Latin America. Less emphasis has been devoted to the study of human activities in different altitudinal belts. In particular, little work has been undertaken on this topic in the Sierra region of Ecuador, located in a transition zone between the permanently humid paramo and the seasonally arid puna. This paper is based on a field inv…
