A/HRC/53/39 (i) Identifying the ways in which crises, compounded forms of structural discrimination and legal and policy frameworks place women and girls at aggravated risk of poverty and inequality and result in further human rights violations, and preventing, mitigating and addressing such risks; (j) Adopting a feminist and human rights-based approach to the measurement of intersecting forms of discrimination to ensure a gender, equalitycentred and sustainable development approach to poverty, with enhanced attention to the groups of women and girls identified in the present report as being in heightened conditions of marginalization and exclusion; (k) Repealing or modifying laws that criminalize acts associated with poverty and life-sustaining activities, the exercise of sexual and reproductive autonomy rights, including abortion, and other status offences that disproportionately affect poor and marginalized women and girls; (l) Guaranteeing equal representation and voice in labour unions and collective bargaining for women workers and creating independent and transparent grievance mechanisms to protect and fulfil women’s rights to decent work and to enable women to enjoy these rights and to receive gender-transformative remedies in the event of violations; (m) Ensuring that trade and investment negotiations and positions are transparent, participatory and aimed at eliminating gender, affluence and other biases, and are consistent with and promote international human rights obligations as well as the 2030 Agenda. This includes gender parity in representation and participation of women in all their diversity in the development of trade and investment agreements and policies. Gender and human rights impact assessments should be carried out prior to concluding bilateral, regional and multilateral trade and investment agreements and the findings of those assessments should be implemented and a dispute-settlement mechanism should be set forth in relation to the gender equality and human rights provisions of such agreements; (n) Complying with the immediate obligations to eliminate discrimination, and guarantee the minimum core of all economic, social and cultural rights and their progressive realization; dedicating maximum available resources to the realization, availability and accessibility of such rights for all women and girls; and creating and promoting mechanisms for their full legal recognition and justiciability, including by ratifying the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, as well as their Optional Protocols; (o) Fulfilling, particularly in the case of economically developed and wealthy States, the obligations of international assistance and cooperation under the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, applying a genderand human rights-based approach under the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and applicable standards, and promoting the adoption of a binding international instrument on the right to development, as crucial redistributive mechanisms; (p) Reinvigorating the global commitments made under the Sustainable Development Goals through the use of creative, feminist and human rights-based strategies – such as those outlined in section II, subsection B, of the present report – and through national indicators that focus on the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals 1, 5 and 10 in particular. 63.
