The Government of Switzerland reports the following: “The enhancement of conflict prevention and peacebuilding capacities of indigenous peoples is extremely important to the understanding and prevention of localized conflicts. However, training on its own is often not enough. Communities should be supported to create indicators against which they can regularly monitor and report on local situations; they should also be able to draw attention to situations that risk spiralling out of control. An amended recommendation in that sense would be supported by Switzerland.”
