The Cultural Connections of Urban and Periurban
Indigenous Communities to Tropical Forest
through Bushmeat Networks in Leticia
(Colombia)
Blanca Yagüe, Nathalie van Vliet, Daniel Cruz, Maytik Avirama Pavón
Food from the forest...
… and from the market
Amazonian inhabitants had originally obtain their food from th
forest and the rivers
Nowadays, the region is under intense transformation:
huge extractive projects, migration and urbanization, access
to new markets, globalization...
Major impact in indigenous populations
Global value chains: industrialized products from all
around the world
Food transition
How are food habits changing in the
Amazon?
Our research questions are:
Indigenous families still consume
forest products in urban contexts?
What role do forest products have in
urban and periurban indigenous
households?
How do forest products link these
people to the forest?
Bushmeat as a model
• Food security
- Nutrition: source of protein
- “Safety Net”
• Economic resource: contributes to household income
• Social and cultural implications
- Traditional foods and rituals
- Local knowledge of territory and resources
- Social relationships
Important multifuntional role in indigenous
communities:
Leticia: a city in the Amazon tri-frontier
- 38000 inhabitants
- migration: colonos and
urban indigenous
- connected by river and daily flights
Methods
Ethnography
Participant observation
Interviews
Network building (GenoPro)
Household 1
• 14 members
(5 females, 9 males)
• Ocaina-uitoto
• Periurban indigenous
community (Leticia)
• Chagra and garden
• Pluriactivity
• Hunter
Household 2
• 5 members
(1 female, 4 males)
• Muninane, miraña
• Urban area Leticia
(maloca CAPUIL)• Politically active
• Urban chagra
• Traditional medicine
• Pluriactivity
Household 3
• 7 members
(5 female, 2 males)
• Cocama – non indigenous
• Urban area (Leticia)
 Relationship with community
of origin
 Chagra
Household
Main place where bushmeat
is shared, exchanged and
consumed • Bushmeat brought directly
from the forest
• Preparation proccess
• Cooking
• Sharing with guests
→ Hunting tales
Exchange scenarios
Forest
• Hunting activity (males)
• Alone or in group
• Consumption
→ share with companions
(family, friends, tourists
and scientists)
Deep knowledge of the
territory and its resources
Maloca
Socialization:
Bring together kins and people
from different ethnic groups
Share of food → bushmeat
Dance rituals or
festivals
Market
• Sales out of the market
• - by order
- door by door
• Monetary transition
• Confidence based
• Social relationships
Restaurants and food sands
• Monetary transition
• Social relationships
• Urban / rural
• Hidden sales
• Most common: paca
Other households
Less common among these
families -
• they offer bushmeat in their
households
Urban families eat
bushmeat in urban and rural
indigenous households
Airport
Network expands in territory and
number of actors:
- connection with distant territories
- intermediaries
Need to contend with
authorities and
airlines
Type of exchange
Immediate exchange
Long-term exchange
Meal sharing
Mediated by money (buy/sale)
Reciprocity
Bushmeat networks
Bushmeat participates in networks that
connect indigenous people with:
The forest
The rural territories
Their inhabitants
What connections does the urban indigenous have with
the tropical forest?
• It means the maintenance
of knowledge about the
territory, forest and its
resources
What role does bushmeat have in urban and periurban
indigenous households?
• Socialization -
“making kins”
• Reproduction of rituals –
traditional dance festivals
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
- Local people: Food sovereignty
- To incorporate the social and cultural dimensions of
bushmeat and other forest products that play a similar role
when designing management programs
Acknowledgements

Special thanks to all the members of the five families that
are the center of this study, and also to all the persons
involved in their networks, for sharing their daily life and
opening their houses and kitchens to us
