Description This easy to understand document, recognizes Indigenous peoples’ right to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC), and provides information about what this right entails. The parts of FPIC are defined (what does free mean, what does prior mean, and so on), to clearly explain the rights that Indigenous peoples are entitled to when engaging in research or mining projects.
