What policies do the colonizers make to achieve that?

Extortion, basically. On the kinder end they’d push them off the land they made their living with and then offer meals and other necessaries for church attendance. On the less kind end they’d give a “convert or die” option, take their children and raise them in the religion or often both.
There were some genuine attempts at benign missionary work, but that sort was more associated with places that were trade contacts missionaries could reach. Once colonization began and we had enough people to play hardball, we did so almost immediately.
