The Permanent Forum underscores that direct access to financing for Indigenous Peoples is essential and requires changing strategies and methodologies to effectively enable the agency of Indigenous Peoples in pursuing their own development aspirations and as guardians of ecosystems. The Permanent Forum recommends that all donors increase direct funding, eliminating intermediaries where possible. To enhance accountability in financing for Indigenous Peoples, the Permanent Forum recommends that the Development Aid Committee of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development include a policy marker in its statistical system for the reporting of development aid to facilitate tracking of funding allocated for Indigenous Peoples across all sectors.
