Yanapaq.info is a browser of recommendations issued by the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII). It allows us to learn about the proposals set forward in this forum to fully excercise our rights and find out opportunities to implement them.<\/strong><\/div>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

These recommendations are useful to indigenous peoples, women and youth organizations and their partners<\/strong> (human rights defenders, NGOs, etc.) to advocate<\/strong> before States, United Nations bodies, other international mechanisms and spaces, and the private sector.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Recommendation Anatomy<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Title:<\/strong> includes the Permanent Forum Session and the paragraph number in the final report.<\/li>\n
  2. Session:<\/strong> session number and year when the recommendations were issued. The Forum has annual sessions from 2002 onwards.<\/li>\n
  3. Implementation: <\/strong>based on available information, the secretariat of the Permanent Forum classifies each recommendation as No information<\/strong>, Not initiated<\/strong>, Ongoing<\/strong>, Completed<\/strong> or Retired<\/strong>. We must take into account that the lack of follow-up information is a barrier. Thus, most of the recommendations are classified as “No information”<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  4. Topics:<\/strong> the Yanapaq.info Team has analyzed each recommendation and tagged them with keywords referring to specific topics relevant to indigenous peoples.<\/li>\n
  5. SDGs:<\/strong> the Yanapaq.info Team has also linked each recommendation to the Sustainable Development Goals<\/a> or 2030 Agenda, which make up an agenda with 17 global priorities. Achieving the goals would lead to the prosperity of the world population, poverty eradication and protection of the environment.<\/li>\n
  6. Destination: <\/strong>each recommendation is addressed to States (sometimes, one specific country), United Nations bodies, intergovernmental organizations and other relevant groups and actors <\/strong>to its topic. For example, there is a recommendation addressed to the Green Climate Fund<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  7. Areas of Work: <\/strong>each recommendation is included in one or more areas of work that make up the Permanent Forum mandate. There are six main mandated areas and others that have been included over time.<\/li>\n
  8. Articles of the UNDRIP: <\/strong>the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples<\/a>, adopted in 2007, is the most important international instrument that states and protects the rights of the world’s indigenous peoples. In its 46 articles, the Declaration establishes the right to equality and non-discrimination, self-determination and self-government, land and territory, and to live in freedom and without violence. The Yanapaq.info Team has linked each recommendation with one or more articles of the Declaration.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  9. Annotations:<\/strong> they provide follow-up information on the implementation of each recommendation<\/strong> at the local, national, continental and global level. The Yanapaq.info Team has carried out the first round of data collection on the Permanent Forum and other United Nations bodies. Later you will find out how to contribute to Yanapaq.info, sharing information from your organization through the annotation section.<\/li>\n
  10. Report of the Session:<\/strong> you can also download the final report of the referred session in Spanish or English.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]Remember that the recommendations of the Permanent Forum are based on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples<\/a>, adopted in 2007, is the most important international instrument that states and protects the rights of the world’s indigenous peoples.

    Are recommendations legally binding?<\/h5>\n

    It is often thought that the recommendations of the Permanent Forum are not legally binding and, therefore, States and other institutions do not consider them mandatory. However, since each recommendation is related to the SDGs<\/strong> and articles of the UNDRIP<\/strong>, States should pay attention to them as part of their responsibilities from global agreements.<\/p>\n

They can learn more through cases at the global, regional or national level shared by different sources.<\/p>\n

    Also, Yanapaq.info has a news section which will feature information produced by indigenous peoples on the progress and challenges regarding the exercise of their rights. This section will pay special attention to information related to indigenous women, youth and children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
