The International Labour Organization (ILO) has been at the forefront of promoting the rights of indigenous peoples through its Decent work Agenda. With its expertise and experience in this area, along with its unique tripartite structure, the ILO has a crucial role to play in supporting concerned stakeholders to ensure that the SDGs are achieved for all.
