Mapping of Ancestral Uses of the Regional Conservation Area of Cordillera Escalera
The experience of Mapping the Ancestral Uses of the Regional Conservation Area of Cordillera Escalera consisted in the accomplishment of collective mapping for the identification of conflicts and the recognition of memories and ancestral uses of the territory in the Department of San Martín. It was carried out within the framework of the "Conflict Mitigation and Development of the Amazon" Project, by the organization Vigilante Amazónico together with the Federation of Kechwas Indigenous Peoples of San Martín (FEPIKRESAM) and the Ethnic Council of the Kechwa peoples of The Amazon (CEPKA). The purpose of the experience was to make visible the situation from the perspective of the indigenous communities to use the resulting maps as a tool for negotiating and defending the indigenous collective rights against both productive and environmental conflicts in the region of the Regional Conservation Area of Cordillera Escalera.
