The meaning and scope of special measures in the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms Racial Discrimination 2009, para. 25
Párrafo
Paragraph text
Article 1, paragraph 4, is expressed more broadly than article 2, paragraph 2, in that it refers to individuals "requiring … protection" without reference to ethnic group membership. The span of potential beneficiaries or addressees of special measures should however be understood in the light of the overall objective of the Convention as dedicated to the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination, with special measures as an essential tool, where appropriate, for the achievement of this objective.
