Paragraph #64Session #4 (2005)

Full Text

The Forum calls upon the United Nations Development Program to develop an indigenous peoples-specific development index by country to take into account the social conditions and human rights situation of indigenous peoples

Responses

In 2005 UNDP's Mexico country office partnered with the Comision Nacional para el Desarollo de los Pueblos Indigenas in the development of the human development index for indigneous peoples. In some cases the indicators have been adapted to reflect local realities. The 2006 Guatemala National Human Development Report is focusing on cultural diversity and will contain a wide selection of data on indigenous peoples. Please see E/C.19/2006/6/Add.6.
