Peru: Implementation advances on the first prior consultation of the duty parliamentary regulation experience in Latin America
Abstract
Peru, as many other countries in Latin America, subscribed and ratified ILO Convention 169 on indigenous people’s rights. However, only after 16 years it has been adopted certain normative and institutional measures in order to implement that Convention in the Peruvian juridical order, alter alia, the approval of the Prior Consultation Law, first in its genre in the American hemisphere. This article examines the progress and contradictions of that process.
