Para uma população ter um acesso justo ao direito a Consentimento Livre, Prévio e Informado, o seguinte deve ser respeitado: 1) As populações indígenas devem ser consultadas antes de já iniciando o projeto. 2) Tempo suficiente deve ser dado a toda comunidade para receber toda informação necessaria relacionado com o projeto e seus implicações. 3) A informação deve ser distribuido de acordo com os costumes tradicionais destas populações. 4) As populações devem chegar a suas próprias opiniões sem nenhuma forma de manipulação. 5) Todas as decisões deverem ser documentadas em detalhe.
Para aplicar o direito a Consentimento Livre, Prévio e Informado corretamente, é importante saber que é aplicável a todos os Povos Indígenas. Os governos e as empresas têm que respeitar as formas de comunicação das populações Indígenas, e os representantes do governo, das empresas, e das comunidades devem juntar-se para negociar e chegar a um acordo que beneficia à comunidade.
Para assegurar que o direito a Consentimento Livre, Prévio, e Informado é respeitado, as comunidades Indígenas deveriam ter reuniões comunitárias que informam as pessoas sobre que está passando e que poderia passar. Além disso, projetos devem ser supervisionados para garantir que as decisões das reuniões comunitárias são implementadas.
O direito a Consentimento Livre, Prévio e Informado manifesta claramente que os governos não devem forçar as pessoas a mudar de ideias, valores, ou as formas tradicionais de tomar decisões e de organizar-se. Também, eles não devem espalhar informação imprecisa para informar erroneamente os Povos Indígenas.
