GUATEMALA: Forgotten Promises Leave Indigenous Peoples Poorer and Hungrier - IPS ipsnews.net: "By Danilo Valladares
GUATEMALA CITY, Dec 12, 2010 (IPS) - Nearly three years into President �lvaro Colom's four-year term, Guatemala's indigenous people have seen little improvement in their lives -- and they represent approximately half the country's population.
'The situation of the native peoples may be even worse than before. Poverty has increased, the quality of education is very poor, and there is no intercultural perspective in health services,' Eduardo Sacay�n, director of the Interethnic Studies Institute at Guatemala's University of San Carlos, told IPS."
