contextualized support to our programme countries and partners through the
finalization of a Resource Guide and Toolkit on Marginalized Minorities in
Development Programming. It reviews programming opportunities and relevant
strategies for UNDP to integrate minorities in development including capacity
development support for government officials and institutions, UN practitioners and
minorities, as well as possible entry points for effective advocacy and partnership
building efforts.
Our constructive partnership has led to our continued engagement at this UN
Forum on Minority Issues and cements our cooperation with one of the critical UN
Human Rights Council processes, also reinforced in the recently established UN
Network on Racial Discrimination and the Protection on Minorities, as called for by
the UN Secretary General.
Thank you for your attention.
