The 2015 ILO Strategy for action concerning indigenous and tribal peoples provides for interventions to build national capacity for the application of Convention No. 169, combining various types of action, including promotion of dialogue between the ILO constituents and indigenous and tribal peoples, standards-related technical assistance, and the documentation, assessment and sharing of existing experiences and good practices with the involvement of ILO constituents and indigenous and tribal peoples. Sharing of experiences will be promoted across countries and regions. As noted in the strategy, this could lead to the development of ILO guidelines or a code of practice. Against this background, the recommendation is brought to the attention of ILO constituents for their consideration in due course, as appropriate.
