Prepared under the supervision of Odile Lim Tung, Faculty of Law and Management, University of Mauritius. Mini Dissertation (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa))--University of Pretoria, 2009. Discusses how to ascertain the meaning and implications of Right to Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC). Discusses the difference between meaningful participation of FPIC and the relationship between ‘national interest’ and the right to FPIC. Also analyses the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples, including mainly the right to FPIC in Ethiopia. Introduces recommendations concerning the middle ground between ‘national interest’ and the right to FPIC. Discusses how the right to FPIC can be legally recognised in Ethiopia and Africa in general, including particularly by the African Commission, and outlines specific recommendations on the relevant policies of the World Bank and African Development Bank. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2010-01-18T13:43:50Z 2010-01-18T13:43:50Z 2009 2009 Mini Dissertation Abebe, AK 2009, The power of indigenous people to veto development activities: the right to Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) with specific reference to Ethiopia, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/12643> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/12643 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
