Rights of indigenous peoples, including their economic, social and cultural rights in the post-2015 development framework 2014, para. 10
Párrafo
Paragraph text
In spite of such progress, the Special Rapporteur notes that there is still a considerable implementation gap with regard to the effective realization of these rights. The long history of colonization and attempts at assimilation of indigenous peoples has continuing effects today. In nearly all of the countries in which they live, indigenous peoples fare worse than non-indigenous sectors of the population in terms of their development, including levels of poverty, education, health, unemployment, housing conditions, clean water and sanitation. Furthermore, in a number of States, indigenous peoples' development strategies and aspirations are still met with negative stereotyping and their contributions in terms of biodiversity conservation, ecosystem services and sustainable food production, for example, are often not well understood.
