Resource kit on indigenous peoples' issues

Abstract

This Kit focuses on development and indigenous peoples, with emphasis on their full and effective participation in all development processes and the need for a genuine partnership in—and ownership with them—of these processes. More specifically, it is designed to provide UNCTs (United Nations Country Teams) with guidance as to how to engage indigenous peoples and include their perspectives in development processes, including monitoring and reporting processes related to the CCA/UNDAF, Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSP), UNDP’s Human Development Reports and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
