The term free, prior, and informed consent (FPIC) has become a call to action for Indigenous People. FPIC embodies the demands of Indigenous Peoples for special consultation and co-governance rights regarding policies and actions in the widest sense that affect them collectively. The question posed in this book is how courts and expert bodies interpret FPIC? Is there a difference between FPIC and good faith consultation? A fascinating reflection is given through the eyes of courts of standards to apply to FPIC, the practical steps to follow to comply with FPIC, and how FPIC responds to dissent in communities.
