The Forum invites the secretariat of the World Trade Organization (WTO) to its third session for an
exchange of views on important issues of common interest.
The Forum urges UNICEF, the lead United Nations agency on children, to adopt a policy relating to indigenous children. The Permanent Forum urges UNICEF to include questions on ethnicity, cultural and tribal affiliation and language in its Demographic and Health and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys, in order to obtain disaggregated data on the goals set forth at the World Summit for Children and the health needs of indigenous children.
