All Party Parliamentary Group for Tribal Peoples

The All-Party Parliamentary Group for Tribal Peoples is a group in the UK Parliament, chaired by Martin Horwood MP, that was founded in 2007. Its stated aim is to "raise parliamentary and public awareness of tribal peoples". The Group meets two or three times a year and one of its main objectives is to press for ratification of ILO Convention 169 on the rights of indigenous and tribal peoples. The British international indigenous rights organization Survival International works as its secretariat, and also funds occasional group receptions and events. APPG for Tribal Peoples is composed of over 30 cross-party MPs and peers, and it is headquartered in London.
