Responses
The Permanent Forum has participated in the meeting of the International Association of Official Statisticians. In addition, the United Nations Statistics Division is collaborating with the Secretariat of the Permanent Forum on its new project to develop a web site as a valuable tool through which to disseminate data on national/ethnic group, language, religion and other topics related to indigenous peoples, which is expected to be completed by the Fourth Session of the Permanent Forum. The Division website will be linked to the website of the Permanent Forum.
