This is an easy-to-use manual to ILO Convention No. 169. It helps to understand the Convention, and how it can be used to gain recognition, promotion and protection of indigenous and tribal peoples’ rights.

The manual does not explain each article of the Convention. It focuses on key concepts such as, for example, human rights, culture, land, development, education and health.

Nor does it strictly follow the structure of the Convention. It is divided into different sections. Each section deals with a key concept.

For easy reference, we have included the article or articles of the Convention which are being discussed.

There is a descriptive explanation of each article. Concepts are introduced by using examples and experiences from indigenous and tribal peoples. This is to demonstrate the articles of the Convention in a practical way.

We have also included diagrams and photographs which highlight and explain some important elements of the articles.
