The Permanent Forum recommends that each of the six divisions of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (the Division for Sustainable Development; the secretariat of the United Nations Forum on Forests; the Division for Public Administration and Development Management; the Statistics Division; the Division for the Advancement of Women; and the Division for Social Policy and Development, which hosts the secretariat of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues) be mindful of the fact that indigenous peoples’ issues need greater attention, that indigenous peoples’ rights as set out in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples should be implemented, that indigenous peoples be given a decisive voice in formulating policies affecting their communities, lands and resources and that there be facilitation of indigenous peoples’ participation in multi-stakeholder dialogues within the intergovernmental processes and in technical cooperation programmes supported by the divisions of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs.
