E/2017/43 E/C.19/2017/11 action plans; (d) mechanisms addressing lands, territories and resources; and (e) indigenous peoples’ development and self-determination. 65. The foregoing items were linked to specific actions identified in the outcome document of the World Conference on Indigenous Peoples. They enabled the expert members to gauge the extent to which actions had been carried out and to encourage the sharing of experiences and ideas. A number of Member States spoke of their arrangements and achievements. The time available was used constructively by Member States and provided an opportunity for expert members to raise questions and consider the replies to them. The expert members consider that these and other items should be discussed at the next session and Member States are encouraged to prepare for the dialogue. 66. The second heading for the dialogue was “indigenous peoples’ issues at the United Nations”. It included the following four items: (a) free, prior and informed consent; (b) the role of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues; (c) remedy and reconciliation; and (d) indigenous peoples in the United Nations system. The time available led to pertinent feedback to assist the expert members with matters regarding the organization and procedures of the Forum and the important topic of accreditation of indigenous peoples to the United Nations. Dialogue with the funds, programmes and specialized agencies of the United Nations system 67. The Permanent Forum welcomes the constructive dialogue with the United Nations funds, programmes and specialized agencies of the United Nations system, in addition to the information provided about the initial results obtained in terms of the implementation of the system-wide action plan on the rights of indigenous peoples since its launch at the fifteenth session of the Forum, in 2016. In particular, the Forum welcomes the development of joint programming and activities by United Nations entities and activities conducted at the country level under the six action areas of the action plan. 68. The Permanent Forum urges the funds, programmes and specialized agencies to have a special focus on the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and the system-wide action plan in a few designated countries in 2017 and 2018 and led by the United Nations resident coordinators. In selecting those countries for joint action, special attention should be given to countries that already are under focus, such as those that are carrying out voluntary national reviews for the high-level political forum on sustainable development, those that are under review by the Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review, those that are in the preparatory phases for a new United Nations Development Assistance Framework, or those in which a dialogue process betwee n the State and the indigenous peoples is taking place. 69. The Permanent Forum recalls that in paragraph 7 of its report on its tenth session (E/2011/43-E/C.19/2011/14), it congratulated the International Fund for Agricultural Development on the establishment of the Indigenous Peoples’ Forum as an example of good practice that should be followed by other United Nations entities. The Forum urges other United Nations entities to report on their progress achieved in this regard to the Forum at its seventeenth session. 70. In accordance with the outcome document of the high -level plenary meeting of the General Assembly known as the World Conference on Indigenous Peoples and the system-wide action plan, all funds, programmes and specialized agencies are urged to adopt policies to inform their work with indigenous peoples that include indigenous peoples’ right to self-determination and free, prior and informed consent. Progress achieved will be discussed at future sessions of the Permanent Forum. 14/25 17-08011
