1. “In May 2000, as part of the side events on the 8th session of the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD 8), a group of Indigenous Peoples Organizations, NGOs and other members of Civil Society provided a proposal on guidelines for ecotourism. Although the final result could not be incorporated into the official papers due to procedural aspects, UNEP recognizes its value as a statement of genuine concerns from primary stakeholders.
Ecotourism is sustainable tourism, which follows clear processes that:
• Ensures prior informed participation of all stakeholders,
• Ensures equal, effective and active participation of all stakeholders,
• Acknowledges Indigenous Peoples communities' rights to say "no" to tourism development - and to be fully informed, effective and active participants in the development of tourism activities within the communities, lands, and territories, and
• Promotes processes for Indigenous Peoples and local communities to control and maintain their resources.” www.unepie.org
