Roadmap for the next three years: thematic priorities of the new mandate-holder 2017, para. 44
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- At the national level, the Special Rapporteur has been deeply concerned by challenges experienced on the ground by humanitarian and development partners in the delivery of their essential services and assistance. These include challenges regarding access to persons and communities affected by internal displacement, due to security concerns or restrictions imposed by national governments, as well as by non-State armed groups and similar non-State actors, particularly in conflict situations. These obstacles seriously hamper their ability to provide essential and life-saving support. The Special Rapporteur will support and collaborate with United Nations agencies and bodies to advocate strongly for States to fulfil their obligations under international humanitarian and human rights law and standards to provide free and unfettered access to all communities in need of assistance. In this context, the Special Rapporteur would also like to give due attention to the role of non-State actors.
