The Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues

In 1998, IWGIA published the book The Permanent Forum for Indigenous Peoples - the struggle for a new partnership. Now, in 2003, with the Forum already established and its first session held last year, IWGIA wishes to continue to prioritise the dissemination of information and analysis on this issue. This Handbook on the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues provides basic information on the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, the aim being to enable indigenous organizations to have greater influence within this body.
