Climate change and indigenous peoples in Latin America.

Climate change and indigenous peoples in Latin America. - 105 p.

Thesis (M.A.)--University of Denver, 2010.

This research focused on the detrimental effects of climate change on indigenous peoples in Latin America. Indigenous peoples throughout the region tend to live subsistence livelihoods, which tie them closely to their land and the surrounding environment. This close relationship often means that indigenous peoples acutely experience the effects of climate change and are more susceptible to its negative outcomes than other populations. Further, indigenous peoples in the region lack the mitigation and adaptation capacities to deal with damaging climatic effects.

520 $a This research focused on the detrimental effects of climate change on indigenous peoples in Latin America. Indigenous peoples throughout the region tend to live subsistence livelihoods, which tie them closely to their land and the surrounding environment. This close relationship often means that indigenous peoples acutely experience the effects of climate change and are more susceptible to its negative outcomes than other populations. Further, indigenous peoples in the region lack the mitigation and adaptation capacities to deal with damaging climatic effects.
520 $a This research was designed to view the impacts of climate change on indigenous peoples through a human rights framework, focusing on the difficulties of resource allocation and management due to climatic shifts. Methods of critique were applied to international responses to climate issues. The research clearly shows the enhanced ways in which indigenous peoples are affected by climate change and that their circumstances inform their thoughts on both the problem and possible solutions. These perspectives are significant and should be more readily considered in international climate discourse.
