The Permanent Forum encourages national human rights institutions to promote the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples at the national and international levels, in collaboration with Indigenous Peoples. 64. The Permanent Forum reminds the Secretary-General, through the Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights, on the continuing relevance of monitoring and reporting on trends related to intimidation and reprisals against Indigenous Peoples who seek to engage with the United Nations. Indigenous Peoples’ representatives have a right to be protected from reprisals for their participation in meetings at the United Nations, including the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues and the Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. 65. The Permanent Forum calls upon Canada to re-examine its support for the Enbridge Line 5 oil pipeline, which jeopardizes the Great Lakes in the United States. The pipeline presents a real and credible threat to the treaty-protected fishing rights of Indigenous Peoples in the United States and Canada. The Permanent Forum recommends that Canada and the United States decommission Line 5.

The Permanent Forum recalls that the outcome document of the World Conference on Indigenous Peoples of 2014 and the Alta outcome document contained an express call to Member States to consider means and modalities of enhancing the participation of Indigenous Peoples’ representatives and institutions in the United Nations system. Further recalling General Assembly resolution 71/321, and recognizing that additional work is needed to fulfil the decisions of the resolution, the Permanent Forum welcomes the consultations held in New York by the President of the General Assembly but notes that the regional consultations encouraged in the resolution never occurred. 67. The Permanent Forum welcomes the work of the Indigenous Coordinating Body for Enhanced Participation in the United Nations in furthering the objectives of resolution 71/321 and agrees on the need to establish a new and distinct status for Indigenous Peoples’ participation at the General Assembly. It also welcomes the organization in November 2022 by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) of the expert workshop on enhanced participation in the Human Rights Council. The Permanent Forum looks forward to reading the report and the recommendations from the workshop when they are submitted to the Human Rights Council prior to its fifty-third session. The Permanent Forum calls upon the Human Rights Council and the General Assembly to ensure further progress on this vital matter. The Permanent Forum encourages Member States to financially support the work of the Indigenous Coordinating Body. 68. The Permanent Forum recognizes that there are certain aspects of enhanced participation that can be accomplished only by Member States. However, the Permanent Forum will consider ways to enhance participation at the Permanent Forum, such as through appropriate ways of recognizing Indigenous Peoples’ decisionmaking bodies in its own modalities. 69. The Permanent Forum recommends that, in 2025, the General Assembly convene a high-level plenary meeting known as the “World Conference on Indigenous Peoples Plus 10” to evaluate the progress on the commitments made in the outcome document of the World Conference on Indigenous Peoples.
