This volume brings together the main statements and interventions made by the International Alliance of Indigenous-Tribal Peoples of the Tropical Forests at various international fora. The statements constitute a pooling of indigenous peoples’ views and experiences from all around the tropics and have been shaped by our millennial association with our traditional territories. Our first acknowledgement must therefore be to our ancestors and creators who made us who we are. Over the years the work of the International Alliance has been assisted by many non-indigenous individuals, organisations and agencies, too numerous to mention. We would like to express our gratitude for the long-term technical assistance we have received from the Forest Peoples Programme of the World Rainforest Movement, including their editorial contribution to this volume, and for the moral and financial support of BothEnds, DANIDA, DGIS, the Netherlands Committee for IUCN, NORAD, NOVIB, OXFAM, SWISSAID, and WWF. Finally we wish to thank IWGIA for helping us produce this volume.
