I came across the following 2015 Paper titled "World Heritage Sites and Indigenous Peoples' Rights" produced by the "International Work Group for Indigenous Affairs" (IWGIA). I don't think we have referred to it before.
See - https://www.iwgia.org/images/documents/popular-publications/world-heritage-sites-fina l-eb.pdf

As well as general sections on the subject, it has papers on "Case studies" regarding 20 WHS having "issues" concerned with Indigenous rights - I list these below
