The Permanent Forum welcomes the global Stop TB Partnership, which is housed within the World Health Organization (WHO). It urges the Partnership to ensure that indigenous peoples’ concerns are fully included and that they participate in the decision-making body in implementing programmes and projects.
The Permanent Forum recommends that UNDP utilize the expertise of Permanent Forum members by keeping them informed of programmes and projects involving indigenous peoples within their areas of responsibility and obtaining their input and involvement on proposed projects and subsequent implementation.
