National Council for Indigenous Policy
The National Council for Indigenous Policy, created in 2015 by Decree No. 8,593, was a collegiate advisory body, which developed public policy proposals targeting indigenous peoples, and supervised their implementation. The Council was made up of 15 representatives of the Federal Executive Branch, 28 representatives of indigenous peoples and organizations, and two representatives of entities that work on issues related to indigenous peoples. The Council was regularly convened in its first months of existence, however, the frequency of meetings was reduced after Temer took office.
