ILO Convention No 169 and Peace Building in Nepal.
Abstract
The publication is being jointly published by NEFIN and ILO. The publication is a culmination of a concerted attempt by concerned individuals and organizations to shed light on the complex issues associated with indigenous peoples, development and conflict in Nepal. More specifically the papers aim is to stimulate dialogue on ILO Convention on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples (No. 169) and its relevance in Nepal, particularly to explore its potential in the context of peace-building, with a view to seeking solutions at the national level to tackle social exclusion of indigenous nationalities, thus contributing to lasting peace and stability. This publication is also attempts to address the gap in understanding and material on substantive and policy issues related to indigenous nationalities in Nepal and elsewhere, by including perspectives from government, civil society and international actors.
