Protected area violates indigenous peoples' rights says African
Commission
A 'landmark' decision of the African Commission on Human and Peoples'
Rights has affirmed the right of the Endorois pastoralists of Kenya
to own their customary lands and to 'free, prior and informed consent',
rights which were violated when they were removed from a protected
area. The decision invokes the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous
Peoples and draws on the findings of the Inter-American Court of Human
Rights. The case has major implications vindicating the right of all
indigenous peoples to restitution for lands taken without their consent
to create national parks and reserves.
