Please note: The period of public comment on the Revised Draft Operational Policy on Indigenous Peoples (Revised Draft OP 4.10) ended on February 28, 2005.
The World Bank has been engaged in global consultations regarding the revision of its Indigenous Peoples Policy OD 4.20 and its conversion to the new Operational Policies/Bank Procedures 4.10 format.
On November 29, 2004, the Committee on Development Effectiveness of the World Bank’s Board endorsed the posting of the Revised Draft Operational Policy on Indigenous Peoples (Revised Draft OP 4.10) for public comment. This Draft has been developed over the last six years, taking into account inputs from numerous consultations with external stakeholders, including Indigenous Peoples leaders, Civil Society Organizations and borrower governments.
The period of public comment on the Revised Draft Policy concluded on February 28, 2005. The Revised Draft Policy, together with a report summarizing the comments, will be forwarded to the Bank’s Board of Executive Directors for consideration of its policy content, including the title of the policy. Once approved by the Board, Operational Policy 4.10 will replace the existing Operational Directive 4.20 on Indigenous Peoples.
The text of the Revised Draft Operational Policy 4.10 is available below in English, French and Spanish.
