    • Most recently and invoking ILO 169, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights declared that the Brazilian government has failed to uphold the rights of indigenous peoples to free, prior, informed and culturally appropriate consultation regarding the Belo Monte hydroelectric project, as required by various international agreements, see http://www. internationalrivers.org/node/6392 (accessed 4 May 2011). It is worth noting, however, that these 'victories' are often pyrrhic, given governments' continued flouting of human rights judgements.
