E/2006/43 E/C.19/2006/11 the sixth session. The Permanent Forum requests donors to provide financial resources for this expert group meeting. The Permanent Forum invites the International Organization for Migration to assist in the preparations for this meeting. 162. The positive potential of indigenous migration for development and the sustenance of indigenous communities should also be highlighted and further explored. 163. The Permanent Forum appoints special rapporteurs to prepare reports and recommendations on how it can implement its human rights mandate without duplicating the work of other human rights bodies and mechanisms and on how it can coordinate and complete its work on human rights and to report to the Permanent Forum at its next session. 164. The Permanent Forum reiterates its recommendations on the establishment of the indigenous fellowship programme within its secretariat 21 and requests Governments, the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), other donors and foundations to contribute to the fellowship programme so that it can be launched and administered in 2007. 165. The Permanent Forum congratulates IFAD for the work undertaken in India on disaggregating the human development index and associated development indicators for indigenous and non-indigenous peoples. It further recommends that the Fund, in collaboration with the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank and other appropriate organizations, undertake similar work in any developing country where existing data allow for estimates of disaggregated development indicators. 166. The Permanent Forum supports the willingness of IFAD to consider continuing to operate the World Bank’s Grants Facility for Indigenous Peoples. It recommends that IFAD make every effort to substantially enhance this Facility through its own grant funding mechanism as well as through seeking the contributions of other international financial institutions as well as bilateral and multilateral donors. 167. The Permanent Forum highly appreciates the initiatives undertaken by IFAD to highlight the need to give a high profile to indigenous issues within the organization and globally by nominating an Assistant President on Special Assignment for Indigenous and Tribal Issues. The Permanent Forum recommends that IFAD ensure that the gains made so far are sustained in the future and urges other organizations and international financial institutions to follow the Fund’s example by assigning a person in a senior management position to coordinate indigenous issues within their organization. 168. The Permanent Forum recommends that IFAD take the lead in a process whose aim would be to generate a global report on the status of indigenous peoples regarding their development with identity and dignity, as a complement to the proposed indigenous peoples’ world status report. 169. The Permanent Forum congratulates UNICEF for convening for the first time at regional level, a meeting of the Inter-Agency Support Group on Indigenous Issues in Panama City and the resulting decision of regional directors of United Nations organizations for Latin America and the Caribbean to include indigenous issues in __________________ 21 Ibid., 2004, Supplement No. 23 (E/2004/43), chap.
