A/HRC/RES/42/25 11. Expresses further concern at the widespread lack of availability of and access to vaccines, medicines and treatment, and at the deterioration of conditions in hospitals, clinics and maternity clinics, which results in, inter alia, the re-emergence of previously controlled and eliminated diseases, including vaccine-preventable diseases, and increased risks of contracting HIV and other sexually transmitted infections; 12. Urges the Venezuelan authorities to take all measures necessary to ensure the availability and accessibility of food, water, essential medicines and health-care services to all those in need, including comprehensive preventive health-care programmes, with particular attention to children’s and maternal services, and urges the Venezuelan authorities to accept all necessary humanitarian assistance, delivered in accordance with international humanitarian principles; 13. Strongly condemns discrimination based on political grounds in access to food assistance and other social programmes against Venezuelans increasingly relying on them to have access to minimum levels of income and food, and urges that all social programmes be provided to all those in need in a transparent, non-politicized and non-discriminatory manner; 14. Expresses grave concern at the disproportionate and differentiated impact of the crisis in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on the human rights of women and girls, the lack of comprehensive health-care services and the insufficient provision of underlying determinants of health, including water and adequate nutrition, the deterioration of immunization and preventative health programmes, and accounts of increased rates in maternal mortality, adolescent pregnancy, malnutrition and preventable diseases; 15. Urges the Venezuelan authorities to adopt appropriate measures to address reported acts of violence and harassment, sexual violence against women and girls in detention in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, which includes accounts of physical, sexual and verbal abuse, threats and intimidation, the sexual exploitation of women and girls for food, protection and privileges, and the ill-treatment, torture and denial of rights of women human rights defenders, nurses, teachers and civil servants, women political prisoners and detainees in detention centres; 16. Underlines with grave concern that the crisis in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela also has a disproportionate and differentiated impact on the human rights of indigenous peoples, particularly on their rights to an adequate standard of living, including their rights to food and to health and on their collective rights as indigenous peoples, particularly their rights to their traditional lands, territories and resources; 17. Strongly condemns the violation of various individual and collective rights of indigenous peoples, in particular in the Arco Minero del Orinoco region, including the excessive use of force, extrajudicial killings, ill-treatment, forced displacement and violations of their rights to maintain customs, traditional ways of life and a spiritual relationship with their land; 18. Deplores the obstacles that Venezuelans on the move face in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela to obtain or legalize documentation, and the fact that those leaving or re-entering the country are often victims of extortion and requisitions; 19. Urges the international community to continue to provide and to scale up support to enable host countries to respond to the growing needs of Venezuelans on the move, including the particular needs of women, children, older persons, persons with disabilities and indigenous peoples; 20. Encourages relevant thematic special procedure mandate holders to pay particular attention, within their respective mandates, to the situation of human rights in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela; 21. Encourages the Venezuelan authorities to cooperate with the above-mentioned mandate holders, particularly in the context of the commitments made with the High Commissioner to receive 10 special procedure mandate holders within the next two years, in particular the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances, the Special Rapporteur on the independence of judges and lawyers, the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, the Special Rapporteur on the right to food, the Special Rapporteur on the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health, the Special 4
