Quoting from a comment by Chris Needham:

In this context, "people's" is correct, as in, belonging to multiple individuals, whereas peoples' is the possessive of peoples (a grouping, culturally or nationally, etc). See https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/eb/qa/What-is-the-difference-between-people-and-peoples-
