Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities against minorities 2014, para. 42
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Persons belonging to minorities have the right to participate in decisions concerning them or their region. States are the primary duty bearers with territorial jurisdiction, including over such third parties as business enterprises, as reflected in the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Among the measures adopted to prevent violence against minorities when business actors are involved, it is essential to legally regulate and closely monitor business activities and to institutionalize channels for consultation among affected communities, Government and enterprises at all stages of operational activity. Minorities must be able to raise their issues and concerns about the impact of business and development activity on communities. The principle of free, prior and informed consent should be applied to minorities and their lands and territories.
