The importance o GEF guidelines and their role inensuring participation o major groups and local communities,including Indigenous Peoples, is highlighted in the GEFInstrument.

31 Both ILO Convention 169 and UNDRIP are signi icant in that,among other things, they address the participation o IndigenousPeoples in matters that a ect them. ILO 169 reers to “ree andinormed consent”. UNDRIP reers, among other things, to “ree,prior and inormed consent (FPIC). FPIC is not only applicable instate signatories to ILO 169, but also where it is required bydomestic legislation or other applicable international obligations.See Council Document GEF/C.41/Rev.1, GEF Policy on Agency Minimum Standards on Environmental and Social Safeguards ,pages 6 and 17.

37 There is no universally accepted meaning o ‘ull and eectiveparticipation.’ For purposes o applying the GEF’s MinimumStandard 4, ull and eective participation should normallyinclude the ollowing elements: (i) begins early in the projectcycle and is carried out on an ongoing basis throughout theproject cycle; (ii ) provides prior and timely disclosure o relevantand adequate inormation that is understandable and readilyaccessible to aected people; (iii) is inclusive o those directlyaected, with particular attention to the needs o women andvulnerable and/or disadvantaged groups; (iv) i s ree o externalmanipulation, intererence, coercion or intimidation; (v) allows theclient to consider and respond to the views expressed, thereby

enabling the incorporation o relevant views o aected peopleand other stakeholders into decision-making as appropriate; and(vi) is commensurate with the potential impacts and risks. ‘Fulland eective participation’ does not require consent butemphasizes strong participation..For additional inormation, seethe Asian Development Bank’s Safeguard Policy Statement ,paragraph 54 and the International Financial Corporation’sPerformance Standard 1, paragraph 30, and the Convention onBiological Diversity’s publication, Contribution from theSecretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity to the Study on “Indigenous Peoples and the Right to Participate in Decision-making,” undertaken by the Expert Mechanism on the Rights o Indigenous Peoples, Submitted December 2009.
