SALT 3 experience.

Call for Application : SALT 4

SALT IV will be held in training center of PACOS TRUST located at Kg. Lomunu, in the vicinity of the Donggongon town. Under the aegis of the Malaysian Catholic Students' Movement (MCSM), there is an urgent need for university students to better understand the plight of IPs (Indigenous Peoples) in the 2nd United Nation Decade (2005-2015) of Indigenous People by living with the IPs who are marginalized by the global market-economy which drives the government to license big co-operations to log and re-plant the IP’s ancestral homeland for profit. 

SALT program is aimed at:

• Cultivating a growing sense of solidarity with the marginalized in our society.
• Equipping each participant with the spiral pedagogy of experience and reflection in the light of faith
• Enabling participants to understand God's perennial calling humankind to promote human rights, justice, indigenous people (Orang Asal), and environment.
• Empowering participants to become committed agents of social transformation
• Study the United Nations' Declaration on the Rights of the Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) regarding the standards and violations. Develop critical understandings and strategies to uphold the fundamental human rights through effective networking and advocacy at international level, regional and at grassroots level.

Deadline

25rd March 2011

Kepentingan Ulu Papar - Video

Kawasan Ulu Papar terletak di bahagian ulu Sungai Papar di Banjaran Crocker. Ianya telah didiami oleh kaum Dusun sejak dari nenek moyang mereka, dan sekarang dikelilingi oleh sempadan Taman Banjaran Crocker. Kawasan tanah adat inilah yang merupakan sumber pencarian setiap hari bagi kaum asal yang tinggal disini yang masih bergantung kepada amalan tradisi seperti menangkap ikan air tawar dan memburu haiwan, bercucuk tanam dan mengambil sumber hutan. Pada masa ini, Ulu Papar terdiri daripada 11 buah perkampungan kecil yang dihuni oleh lebih daripada 1,000 orang yang beragama Kristian Katolik, termasuk juga mereka yang berkerja di bandar. Jarak dari pekan Donggongon ke Kampung Buayan, iaitu salah satu kampung di Ulu Papar, adalah lebih kurang 30 km yang mengambil masa tujuh ke lapan jam berjalan kaki, dari hujung jalan raya di Kampung Timpangoh sehingga tiba di Kampung Buayan. 

Pada April 2010, penduduk kampung Ulu Papar telah menghantar memorandum bantahan terhadap pembinaan Empangan Kaiduan kepada Ketua Menteri Sabah, Menteri Pelancongan, Kebudayaan dan Alam Sekitar Sabah, Peguam Besar Negeri Sabah, Suhakam, Pegawai Daerah Penampang dan juga kepada parti-parti politik seperti United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organisation (UPKO), Party Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Democratic Action Party (DAP), Party Bersatu Sabah (PBS), dan Party Progresif Sabah (Sapp). -owner-
