A/HRC/4/32/Add.2 page 23 E. Peoples in voluntary isolation 94. The Special Rapporteur recommends that the Human Rights Council call on the three countries involved in protecting the peoples living in voluntary isolation (Colombia, Ecuador and Peru) and the international community to pool forces and resources in order to protect and safeguard endangered indigenous peoples living in the Amazonian region. (The Special Rapporteur made a similar recommendation to the Colombian Government following his mission there in 2005.) 95. In the “untouchable” area and the Yasuní National Park, any oil activities shall be suspended and illegal logging shall be punished, in addition to any activity that disturbs the peace of peoples living in voluntary isolation. Furthermore, an integrated programme for the restructuring of the local economy in Huaorani regions shall be drawn up, and real and effective controls shall be set in place to prevent the removal of timber from these territories. 96. Prompt steps should be taken to enact the necessary national legislation for the promotion, protection and safeguarding of the rights of peoples in voluntary isolation, in strict compliance with ILO Convention No. 169 and the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, adopted by the Human Rights Council. 97. In the Andean region, the Special Rapporteur recommends that the State take into consideration the intercultural realities of the area, in addition to the needs and rights of indigenous communities, in connection with any State activities relating to the conservation, management and development of inter-Andean corridors, forests and heathlands in the region, and ensure respect for the lands and territories of indigenous peoples and nationalities. F. International cooperation and the academic sector 98. The Special Rapporteur recommends that international cooperation agencies consider and pay particular attention to indigenous needs in their various specialized areas. 99. The Special Rapporteur recommends that university and research institutions, both in Ecuador and abroad, focus on and adapt their programmes to the constitutional principles of multiculturalism and the promotion of the human rights of indigenous peoples. -----
