The Permanent Forum recognizes the need to establish a dialogue with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on the reflection of indigenous issues in policies related to official development assistance (ODA).
The Permanent Forum notes with appreciation the active engagement of UNFPA with indigenous peoples in the regions of Latin America and Asia, as well as its detailed reporting on its work in these areas. The Permanent Forum invites UNFPA to continue reporting on its work and recommends that future reports deal with agency activities in all sociocultural regions or, if no relevant activities are under way in a particular region, the challenges to addressing indigenous issues in such regions.
