- English abstract
- Indigenous peoples’ free prior and informed consent (FPIC) has emerged as a standard of international human rights law and is increasingly a requirement of project financing. Extractive industry companies are grappling with its implementation and reducing it to a technocratic exercise, while indigenous peoples see its operationalisation as an exercise of autonomy. The book explores the FPIC principle from ethical, sustainability and economic perspectives, with a view to constructing common ground to enable its implementation. It argues that it is essential to understand FPIC from a self-determination-based perspective to realise its transformative potential and ensure meaningful rights-based engagement and implementation.
