Evaluering
Informe de evaluación del proyecto “Territorio indígena, vigilancia ciudadana y defensa de la identidad de los pueblos Asháninka y Kakinte” y del papel de CIPA en el proyecto
The RFN Project “Indigenous Territorio, Citizen Vigilance, and Defense of the Identity of the Asháninka and Kakinte Peoples” began in 2008, and now, after four years of implementation, needs an evaluation for the purpose of planning a possible follow-on initiative over five additional years, 2013-2017. The implementing organization, Amazon Center for Research and Community Development (CIPA) is an NGO with 34 years experience of work with indigenous peoples of the Peruvian Amazon. The Project is centred in the Tambo River Valley of the Central Selva in Río Tambo District, Satipo Province, Junín, Perú, in seven indigenous communities of the área of influence of the Asháninka Communal Reserve (RCA) and the Otishi National Park (PNO), two critical national protected áreas on the western edge of the Vilcabamba-Amboró Biological Corridor, one of the few remaining areas of standing primary forest with unusually high biological diversity in the Amazon Basin. It works directly with these indigenous communities and their organizations, EcoAsháninka, the Asháninka Organization of the Tambo River (CART) and the Organization for the Development of the Kakinte people (ODPK).
