The Committee notes the observations of the Trade Union Confederation of Workers’ Commissions (CCOO), received on 2 August 2018, and of the General Union of Workers (UGT), received on 7 August 2018, as well as of the observations of the Spanish Confederation of Employers’ Organizations (CEOE) transmitted by the Government with its report.

The Committee notes the information provided by the Government and the social partners on the functioning and activities carried out by the Indigenous Programme of the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation in the framework of the implementation of the Spanish Strategy for Cooperation with Indigenous Peoples (ECEPI). The Committee observes that the Programme’s activities are structured around five priority areas, including: the promotion and implementation of the rights of indigenous peoples through the Convention; the support for the full and effective political participation of indigenous peoples in regional and international processes affecting them; the support for the use of the media; the promotion of policies to protect indigenous peoples in isolation and in initial contact. The Committee also notes the information provided on some projects financed and developed in the Latin American region within the framework of the ECEPI. The Committee welcomes the Government’s commitment and the interest of the social partners in promoting the Convention at the national and international levels.
