Docip Synthesis nº8 on the 18th session of the Permanent Forum (UNPFII)
2019-06-12
Docip has the pleasure to share with you our first publication of this year, the Synthesis on the 18th session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII) that took place from the 22d of April until the 3rd of May 2019 at the UN Headquarters in New York, USA.
The 18th session of this year's Permanent Forum focused on indigenous peoples’ 'traditional knowledge: generation, transmission and protection'.
This Synthesis summarizes the statements of the plenary sessions made during the two weeks of the conference, starting with a paragraph of introduction, followed by an executive summary, summaries of the statements and annexes.
I would like to thank my team for their work on this publication: all the volunteers who took notes during the Permanent Forum, Ms. Leyla Babayeva and Mr. Ivan Gorovenko (translation into Russian), Ms. Clémence Berger (translation into French), and Ms. Mary Holihan (proof reading of English).
Wishing you a pleasant reading,
Priscilla Saillen
