Paragraph text
The responses received to the Special Rapporteur's questionnaire reveal a number of State legal and institutional frameworks, domestic court decisions, business internal policies and pilot projects that address or are relevant to indigenous peoples' rights in the context of extractive industries. In the opinion of the Special Rapporteur, these various initiatives deserve careful consideration and may provide useful guidance when devising effective models for securing the rights of indigenous peoples in the extractive projects affecting them.
