Government delegates as well as representatives from the timber industry, multilateral and bilateral organisations, and civil society are expected to take part in the meeting where a Ministerial declaration will be drafted. The following briefly introduces the FLEG process, then moves on to discuss civil society participation in the up-coming Ministerial. The FLEG process is the outcome of a number of consultations, conferences and national initiatives organised by multilateral and bilateral institutions that focused on combating the threat posed to forests by illegal logging and trade, corruption and poaching. The G-8 group of industrialised countries launched an Action Program on Forests in 1998, and this motivated the partnership between the World Bank, the UK department for International Development and the US Department of State which led to the focus on forest law enforcement in East Asia and later in Africa.

The meeting in Bali in June ended in deadlock on a wide range of issues. As these analyses indicate, substantive agreement on these issues in Johannesburg would require new willingness on the part of the U.S. in particular to respond to the concerns of developing countries. Most observers therefore rate the chances of breakthroughs at the official summit at slim to none. Another posting today includes a press release and fact sheet released by the UN in advance of the Summit.

Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organisation World Summit on Sustainable Development July 11, 2002 The upcoming World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg, South Africa, from 26 August through 4 September, 2002, will be a great opportunity for our members to dialogue with their governments and other international organizations concerning issues of participation, sovereignty and decision making in areas such as land, resources, poverty, education and trade. Although there are nine major groups participating in the WSSD, I would like to highlight aspects of dialogue emphasized by three of these groups and the issues they intend to bring forward: Indigenous Peoples, NGO’s and Local Governments. These are examples of issues that pertain to our members and are in alignment with our grievances. There are 25 areas of interest listed as commitments and priorities for the World Summit on Sustainable Developement by the Indigenous people. I have selected the following to show these commitments as pertaining to our members interests. The World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), the United Nations, international and regional organizations, Governments, Indigenous Peoples and civil society commit themselves to the following:

Statement of the International Mining Workshop Bali, Indonesia, 24-27 May, 2002 We, 74 representatives of communities affected by mining, non-governmental organizations and activists, from 15 countries of Africa, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Europe and North America - have gathered in Bali, from 24 to 27 May, 2002, to tally the impacts of the global mining industry on our communities and ecosystems and to assert, at the occasion of Prepcom IV of the World Summit for Sustainable Development, that mining as we know it today is unsustainable and runs counter to people-oriented development. Within a context of imperialist globalization, mining, oil and gas has been a threat to the economic and social development of many of our countries and the survival of indigenous peoples and local communities. We therefore make the following demands: a moratorium on all new mines an immediate shutdown of all existing mines where communities demand it a ban on mining oil and gas activities in sensitive ecological and cultural areas including protected areas, small islands, mountaintops, oceans, and in conflict zones promote the reduction of minerals useage and develop and strengthen metals substitution, recycling, and re-use

This collection of essays by leading international experts offers an up-to-date, comprehensive history and analyses of multiple cases of genocide and genocidal acts, with a focus on the twentieth century. The book contains studies of the Armenian genocide, the victims of Stalinist terror, the Holocaust, and Imperial Japan. Several authors explore colonialism and address the fate of the indigenous peoples in Africa, North America, and Australia. As well, there is extensive coverage of the post-1945 period, including the atrocities in the former Yugoslavia, Bali, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Rwanda, East Timor, and Guatemala. The book emphasizes the importance of comparative analysis and theoretical discussion, and it raises new questions about the difficult challenges for modernity constituted by genocide and other mass crimes.

The ACMICA delegation, which included Minh Nguyen, Rachel Galea and Bill Neville, made significant contribution towards this meeting and its outcome, and had undoubtedly brought Australia closer to full membership in the ICMICA community. The Workshop was attended by over seventy delegates from eleven country members of ICMICA. Some of the issues raised included climate change, corporate accountability, and indigenous peoples' land rights and self-determination. ACMICA's intervention at the Workshop pointed to the state of sustainable development in Australia, and criticised in particular the Australian Government's market fanaticism and lack of real commitment to the greenhouse and corporate accountability questions.

During the debate, the importance of promoting respect for human rights at all levels in the document was among the many issues stressed. Belgium’s representative said the starting point for sustainable development, ethically speaking, was respect for human rights at all levels. The Johannesburg declaration should acknowledge the right to development and the right for all to live in an appropriate, healthy environment.

Feature Story Other Stories News Archive FEATURE STORY Bali PrepCom Opens with Calls for Bolder Commitment to Action "The World Summit on Sustainable Development has not been called to endorse business as usual," Summit Secretary-General Nitin Desai told the opening of the preparatory meeting. "It has been called because people want change. And this Summit must signal a real commitment to change." Negotiations on the Summit outcome documents quickly got underway, with Summit officials hopeful that work on a programme to intensify and expand implementation of sustainable development activities can be completed by the end of the PrepCom's first week. Discussions on the elements for a political declaration to be endorsed by the world leaders attending the Summit will be held during the second week of the PrepCom, when ministers from around the world will attend." Desai said he hoped that the implementation programme, when completed, would be known as the "Bali Commitment for Sustainable Development," and would serve as a guide for actions that bring measurable results that improve the symbiotic relationship between people and their environment. Progress in five strategic areas-water, energy, health, agricultural productivity, and biodiversity-that had been highlighted by United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan, was essential, Desai added.

Section Home About Fair Trade Coffee Campaign Producers ... Store Fair Trade: Economic Justice in the Marketplace Global Exchange's Fair Trade Program provides a sustainable model of international trade based on economic justice. We offer consumers the opportunity to purchase beautiful, high quality gifts, housewares, jewelry, clothing, and decor from producers that were paid a fair price for their work. We tell the stories of the cultures and families, primarily indigenous peoples and women, that created these amazing crafts from Bali, South Africa, Haiti, Guatemala, Kenya, Mexico, Cambodia, Nepal, Thailand, as well as the United States. As an alternative to sweatshop production, our Fair Trade Crafts Stores generate income for thousands of artisans and their families in over 40 countries. Fair Trade means an equitable and fair partnership between marketers in North America and producers in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. "A US News poll shows that 6 in 10 Americans are concerned about the working conditions under which products are made in the United States and more than 9 in 10 are concerned about the working conditions under which products are made in Asia and Latin America." In past years we witnessed a huge increase in the number of consumers demanding products which are made without sweatshop labor. But Fair Trade isn't just about being Sweat-Free; it sets a high standard for what is possible in international trade.

What Are We Going to Do About the United States? By Eric Mann ZNET July 13, 2002 By the second day of the UN's Bali PrepComm, most delegates from the Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) oscillated between disgust and depression. The "Chairman's Report"—the summary language that all the world governments were trying to agree upon—was little more than a neoliberal anti-environmental agenda. Naty Bernardino of the International South Group Network called it "Rio minus 10." As the governmental delegates were debating the language for the final declaration, an angry UN official, thinking his microphone had been turned off, was overhead lamenting, "What are we going to do about the United States?" Many groups had come to Bali to demand "water as a human right." The U.S. refused; it argued that water is a commodity to be privatized. Groups had demanded that the U.S. sign the Kyoto treaty, and that WSSD pass a proposal for a far more radical reduction in greenhouse gases than the 5% proposed by Kyoto. The U.S. refused to sign Kyoto altogether, and opposed any language linking fossil fuel combustion to global warming—opposing any efforts to save the small island states and the entire planet from ecological catastrophe. NGOs, and even a few governments, had demanded binding language with specific timetables and goals, such as reducing world poverty by 50% by the year 2015. The U.S. opposed specific numerical goals, specific timetables, structures of accountability, or penalties for non-compliance.
