The Permanent Forum expresses its appreciation to Special Rapporteurs, Ms. Victoria Tauli-Corpuz and Mr. Parshuram Tamang for their report entitled “Oil palm and other commercial tree plantations, monocropping: impacts on indigenous peoples’ land tenure and resource management systems and livelihoods”. The Permanent Forum recommends that further analysis be undertaken to include information received and gathered from Governments, the logging and plantation sectors and their networks, indigenous peoples, non-governmental organizations and intergovernmental bodies, including the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Convention on Biological Diversity and the United Nations Forum on Forests. The Permanent Forum reappoints Ms. Tauli-Corpuz to continue as the Special Rapporteur to draft the follow-up report, using existing resources, to be presented at the 2008 session of the Permanent Forum.
