H.5
Percentage of projects of extractive-industry or other major investment projects subject to prior, free and informed consultation of indigenous peoples and which have their consent.

Definition: Ratio between: (i) numerator: total number of extractive-industry or other major investment projects that were subject to prior free, informed and informed consultation of indigenous peoples, and (ii) denominator: total number of extractive-industry or other major investment projects that affect indigenous peoples.

Notes:

Some countries have developed databanks on socioenvironmental conflicts that can reinforce or complement the information needed to calculate the indicator. For example, in Chile, the National Institute of Human Rights developed the interactive website “Mapa de conflictos sociambientales en Chile” [Map of socioenvironmental conflicts in Chile], which records current conflicts and those that have been resolved, with a description of the stakeholders involved, the rights at stake, the causes of conflict and the profile of the community (further detail at http://www.indh.cl/mapadeconflictos). In the case of Argentina, Amnesty International developed a website with similar characteristics, with a typology of conflicts based on: territorial, environmental, violence, eviction, legal status, criminalization, case-study groups. This can be consulted at http://www.territorioindigena.com.ar/. At the regional level, the Latin American Observatory of Environmental Conflicts contains detailed information by country, which can be viewed at http://www.olca.cl/oca/index.htm.
