The analytical materials were submitted to the UN Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples for its future consolidated reports : “Indigenous Peoples right to data, including data collection and disaggregation” and “The right of Indigenous Peoples to their traditional economies”.
The experts emphasize that ensuring the rights of Indigenous peoples to the traditionaleconomy is impossible without the development of independent institutions of self-government and full-fledged, rather than formal/fake participation of Indigenouscommunities in decision–making. In order to implement the principle of free, prior andinformed consent, it is necessary to fully inform Indigenous communities about the plans of mining companies to use traditional territories.
