E/2010/43 E/C.19/2010/15 75. The Permanent Forum notes that the mainstreaming of indigenous peoples’ issues within the Division for Social Policy and Development followed the Permanent Forum’s policy messages that focused attention on indigenous women on various fronts, such as awareness-raising, an issue with regard to which the secretariat of the Permanent Forum has worked with women’s organizations, including in 2004 at a high-level panel of the Commission on the Status of Women on women’s role in conflict resolution. In the area of operational activities, the Division for Social Policy and Development, in conjunction with other United Nations bodies, established a working group which focused on indigenous women’s issues within the United Nations system. 76. The Permanent Forum commends its secretariat for being part of the committee that prepared the United Nations Development Group Guidelines on Indigenous Peoples’ Issues, which incorporates tenets of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and has been disseminated to all United Nations country teams. 77. The Permanent Forum notes that in supporting indigenous youth, the Indigenous Youth Caucus has been a consistent voice at the sessions of the Permanent Forum, while the United Nations Programme on Youth has dedicated a chapter of its 2009 report to the theme “Indigenous youth and climate change”. Concluding recommendations 78. The Permanent Forum recommends that each of the six divisions of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (the Division for Sustainable Development; the secretariat of the United Nations Forum on Forests; the Division for Public Administration and Development Management; the Statistics Division; the Division for the Advancement of Women; and the Division for Social Policy and Development, which hosts the secretariat of the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues) be mindful of the fact that indigenous peoples’ issues need greater attention, that indigenous peoples’ rights as set out in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples should be implemented, that indigenous peoples be given a decisive voice in formulating policies affecting their communities, lands and resources and that there be facilitation of indigenous peoples’ participation in multistakeholder dialogues within the intergovernmental processes and in technical cooperation programmes supported by the divisions of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs. 10-36959 (E) 140610 *1036959* 44 10-36959
