Throughout this year, as in years past, the Special Rapporteur has received information on an ongoing basis from indigenous peoples, non-governmental organizations, intergovernmental organizations, and United Nations mechanisms concerned with the protection of human rights of indigenous peoples about alleged violations of the human rights of indigenous peoples. Responding to the communications received from indigenous peoples and other sources constitutes a fundamental focus of the work of the Special Rapporteur, and brings together key aspects of the mandate as established by Human Rights Council resolution 6/12. The Special Rapporteur, through the communication procedure, monitors and evaluates situations, and seeks to identify underlying causes of immediate problems, and develop recommendations that are practical and in accordance with relevant human rights standards.
