The Permanent Forum reiterates its concern about conservation efforts, including the designation of national parks, biosphere reserves and world heritage sites, which frequently lead to the displacement of indigenous peoples from their traditional lands and territories. In this regard, the Permanent Forum requests that a member of the Forum attend the thirty-fourth session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee, to be held in Brasilia, Brazil, in August 2010.

Paragraph Number: 42

Full Text:
The Permanent Forum recommends that bilateral donors increase official development assistance (ODA) to the level of 0.7 per cent of gross national product, as agreed in the outcome document of the International Conference on Financing for Development, as stated in the Millennium Development Goals and as reaffirmed in the 2005 World Summit Outcome, and also recommends that the donors ensure that targeted ODA is available for indigenous peoples. ODA will be used primarily for reinforcing indigenous peoples’ own priorities and for programmes to promote their development with identity.
