Workshops for the development of a Protocol of Prior Consultation for Free, Prior and Informed Consent
The Protocol of Prior Consultation for Free, Prior and Informed Consent was developed through a participatory process, with the objective of improving and implementing the right of prior consultation in the Autonomous Region of the North Caribbean Coast. The methodology used for its construction included focus groups, interviews with experts and leaders of indigenous communities, two workshops with community representatives and a workshop with territorial authorities. The workshops were carried out through group work in which the participants agreed and delimited the steps for the implementation of consultation processes in the indigenous context of Matumbak.

Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
