The Permanent Forum requests that entities, agencies, funds and programmes of the United Nations system allocate relevant financial and human resources to carry out commitments to indigenous peoples, as per the system-wide action plan on the rights of indigenous peoples and respective strategic plans and programmes and to provide information to the Forum about the allocation of such resources at its annual sessions.
The Permanent Forum urges the Governments of Colombia and Ecuador to take immediate action to protect the indigenous peoples whose territories are in the border area between the two countries. The Forum encourages the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and the Special Rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples to work with the two Governments to address this situation in close cooperation with the indigenous communities concerned.
