This presentation was produced by the Center for World Indigenous Studies (CWIS) thanks to the research of the Extractive Industries Panel, including Associate Scholars listed here. The aim is to explain problems created by the extraction of resources in ancestral lands of Fourth World Nations and what actions are needed to implement that internationally recognized process of Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC).

A special thanks to the people who gave us their time and interviewed with us.
