The Permanent Forum encourages the commencement of discussions among Member States and indigenous peoples during the International Decade on the implications of a possible UNESCO convention on the safeguarding and revitalization of endangered languages.

Responses

Member States have been encouraged to develop their own national, regional and local plans for the safeguarding of linguistic rights and multilingualism and to localize the Global Action Plan of the Decade. The Global Action Plan gives the strategic approach, defines major steps, provides guidance on implementation, monitoring and governance structures and suggests measures to be taken by all stakeholders.
