Para que este derecho sea aplicado de manera justa, se debe de respetar lo siguiente: 1. Desde el inicio de un proyecto se debe consultar a los pueblos indígenas; 2. Se debe otorgar el tiempo necesario para que los pueblos indígenas reciban todo la información sobre los proyectos y sus impactos; 3. Se debe dar información en las formas tradicionales de cada pueblo; 4. Se debe evitar cualquier tipo de influencia en opiniones hacia los pobladores; 5. Se debe documentar cualquier decisión en forma detallada.

El Estado debe obtener el consentimiento libre, previo e informado antes de aprobar cualquier proyecto de desarrollo que afecte las tierras y recursos de los pueblos indígenas.

Las comunidades indígenas no deben dejar al gobierno seguir violando su derecho al Consentimiento Libre, Previo e Informado e destruyendo sus tierras.
